Disappointed, the discription does not indicate it is plastic.

Dual function
Exactly what I needed! This device gives me the ability to attach a Go Pro to the top of DSLR, thus I can record video while shooting stills. Yes, the shutter click is quite audible on the video, but I use a separate audio recorder, so this is not an issue. I recommend this for anyone who needs to use two cameras at the same time.

Don't expect cheap plastic
Sometimes, small handy items like the screw adapter are plastic and won't tighten down enough. I was delighted to find that this one is metal and well made. I don't like to have LEDs or other gear relying on flimsy plastic. This adapter is small, lightweight and sturdy. Great to have in a pinch.

small but so important
Adorama service has been as good as it gets. This purchase is such a minor piece of gear but you absolutely need it when you need it and it does exactly what it was supposed to and I trust it no mater what angle the camera is on.

accessory
A customer asked if this could be used on his tripod. The answer is "no" since it's menat to be used in a hot/cold shoe of a camera. I use it to attach my Zoom audio recorder to my DVX-100 camcorder.

Now the Cold Shoe is on the other foot!
When you just HAVE to add some 1/4x20 threaded item to your camera and all you have is a cold/hot shoe. I use it to attach a little shade umbrella to my Sony A1U while shooting long exteriors and works like a charm.

not too bad
this piece isn't too wimpy, I wish the metal part that goes into the shoe was a little beefier.. I have this for mounting a Quantum Q-Flash to stroboframe so we'll see how long it takes to fail. There are only a few options for 1/4-20 to hotshoe and this will be fine for a light head like Norman/ Lume but I'm a tad nervous with the Q-Flash.

Works great. Added a small ballhead to the top of a flip-frame so I could add Swivel to a Speedlight with no swivel. Now I can bounce anywhere .

After 20 some years, I finally found it.
I use it on a camera handle mount to attach a wired TTL flash which can be detached to shine on the subject at any handheld angle I want off the lens axis. Great gizmo.
