Yes, it is true that out of the box it doesn’t fit Sony or Godox flashes but nothing a machinist couldn’t fix in a few minutes. Allows me to mount flash on a tripod also an umbrella if needed all in one chunk of metal with no moving parts. You have to add a 1/4-20 thumb screw to secure the umbrella.

A must have for any photographer or videographer.

Installation was a breeze. Mount to an Arca ball head and mount the light with it's own cold shoe lock. The design, fit and finish are excellent. Weighs only 1.4oz. It also has 1/4-20 & 3/8-16 side mounting screw holes for additional accessory attachments (lights, magic arms, external MIC, etc) and a 1/4-20 base socket. There's even a friction umbrella socket to help modify your light. Gets the job done!

You are correct, the Sunwayfoto CB-06 Cold Shoe Adapter with Arca-Type Base does not have a knob for the umbrella 8mm mount. When using an umbrella is secured by friction only. Adding some gaffer tape around the umbrella shaft might fix it. ProTapes Pro Gaffer Tape (2" x 55 yd, Black) BH #PRGT255B
