Does the job as well as an original OEM part.

The bushings are well-machined and easy to install. The camera I recently purchased was missing this piece and my tripods, of course, mount with a 1.4-in. screw, so this was a must-buy for me.

Simple Adapter Does Great Job

These are exactly what I wanted - turns stuff like photo tripods into mic stands. Good quality at a very good price.

A small part. I think it should have come with the original ball head.

No muss no fuss, it just screws in just as it was supposed to.

Is what you expect, works fine

Wanted this to convert my monopod so I could put my quick release ball head on it. Great to have 2 so if I need one or want to convert a light stand or other piece of equipment, I've got a spare.

They do what they are supposed to do.

I use these to change the mount at the base of my medium format cameras (Blad and Mamiya) depending upon the platform they are mounted. Because they are small, I usually keep a supply of them on hand just in case.
