Oben ASPTA-20 Overview

The ASPTA-20 Smartphone Tripod Adapter from Oben lets you securely mount your smartphone onto a wide variety of platforms like a tripod, monopod, and tripod head. And to ensure compatibility, the ASPTA-20 can mount to these platforms via the Arca-type base or either of the standard 1/4-20 or 3/8-16 threaded holes in the mounting plate.

Mounting your smartphone is quick and easy. The clamp-style holder is adjustable and spring-loaded, accommodating smartphones from 2.4 to 3.7" wide - in or out of a case. When inside the holder, your smartphone gets additional protection from the curved edges that work to keep the phone from slipping out. The interior is also foam-lined, safeguarding the finish of your phone while providing extra grip.

Safely fastening a smartphone to your platform of choice is not where the capabilities of this adapter end. Additional features, such as an integrated ball joint, lets you pivot the phone in a variety of positions. A locking knob on the clamp secures it into place so you can get the precise shot you want. You can further enhance your work with the integrated cold shoe, so you can attach optional accessories such as an LED light or microphone to your setup. More than a simple tripod adapter, the ASPTA-20 can integrate into your workflow help you capture a wide range of mobile content.

Durable All-Metal Construction
Constructed from solid aluminum, this adapter can handle the rigors of outdoor shoots in rough terrain, and all kinds of weather.
Compact & Feather-Light
Weighing only 4.6 oz, this compact smartphone adapter can easily be thrown in a backpack or gear bag.

Oben ASPTA-20 Reviews

The item was stolen from my front porch...

By Stuart

I've been asked to review my purchase of an ASPTA-20 Smartphone Tripod Adapter so... I didn't get a chance to open the package. It was stolen from my front porch. B&H gave me a ship date of 9/8. The shipper delivered it on 8/31 (but never emailed me that it had been delivered). B&H told me to deal with the shipper. The shipper told me they delivered it on 8/31 (which they did, they took a picture, etc). The shipper quickly washed their hands of the issue. So the only takeaway from this is I will never order anything else from B&H (or anyone) who won't require a signature, or won't send me an email that the item was delivered (I have no doubt it was stolen during the night, etc). So I gave a review of 1 Star...though the one star is really for the poor shipping methodology. The tripod adapter might be fantastic...but I'll never know.

Just what I needed!

This tripod adapter is perfect. Not only does it adjust to hold my smartphone in any position but it also has the cold shoe to accommodate lighting accessories for more professional filming and photos!

With the iPhone camera lenses facing the ball joint, will the ball joint get in the shot when using the widest lens?
Asked by: Edwin
It's a good question, particularly since the confusing photo shows the phone being mounted that way (backwards). Assume the grip works equally well in either mounting direction (?) Maybe the follow-up question is whether the touch-screen camera controls are blocked by the ball joint to some degree, when the touch screen is facing that direction.
