Good value for money but not suitable for larger accessories

Bought it to mount my Atamos Ninja V to my camera. However, in my hands this Ball Head was not suitable for a larger accessory since it always drifted. At most it will be suitable for a small and lightweight accessory, such as a GoPro.

Cheap but ok to use

It is very useful for small lightweight things. But the screw handle thing is plastic and hard to get tightened.

Not recommended.

No. I would not recommend this product. The build was low quality and the tungsten daylight accessories purchased dis not fit the light. The light was acceptable but the accessories did not stay atached to the light and juat kept popping off. I couldnt use it.

It's fine...

Look, it holds the camera up. It's just a little too easy to movie it when trying to make minor adjustments to the camera. It even moves when trying to push the "Record" button. So, it does its job, but it requires constant adjustments.

Perfect for Holding the Camera in the Ring Light

I forgot to purchase this small adapter for my ring light and struggled to use another tripod for my camera on top of having my ring light on a tripod. I do not know why I did not purchase this little adapter sooner - I save so much more space without 2 tripods!! I love that it is easy to mount on the ring light and it moves around so freely. It makes it easier for me to film from different angles. Glad that I purchased this because it made recording videos and taking pictures much easier!

Great for mounting devices on your hotshoe.

This is perfect for using on my hotshoe adapter. It allows me to adjust either my lights or my microphone. I find it particularly useful to use with a directional shotgun mic. I also use it as a mount for my preview monitor.
