Elevate your vlogging and filmmaking setup with the SMALLRIG 2879 Cold Shoe Extension, the ultimate solution for content creators who demand an unobstructed view of their camer´s flip-up screen. Designed with precision and practicality, this essential accessory relocates your microphone or light away from the camer´s hot shoe, ensuring you can perfectly frame every shot without any visual interference. It is the ideal mounting bracket for users of popular cameras with articulating screens, such as the Sony A6 series, Canon M6 Mark II, and many more.

Stop compromising your composition. This cold shoe extension securely attaches to the side of your camera cage via two standard 1/4”-20 screws, providing a stable and reliable new mounting point. The innovative design allows you to keep your microphone attached while fully utilizing your camer´s flip-screen for vlogging, self-portraits, or monitoring your footage from any angle. Its lightweight yet robust construction ensures it adds minimal bulk to your rig, maintaining a compact and agile setup for on-the-go shooting.

Key Benefits:

* Unobstructed Screen View: The primary benefit is its ability to relocate accessories like microphones, which commonly block the view of a side-articulating or top-flipping LCD screen. This allows for perfect framing and monitoring, especially during vlogging and self-recording.
* Enhanced Audio & Lighting Placement: By moving the cold shoe mount to the side of the cage, you achieve better separation for your microphone, potentially improving audio quality and allowing for more versatile lighting positions without creating shadows from the lens.
* Secure and Stable Mounting: The dual 1/4”-20 screw attachment prevents any twisting or wobbling, providing a far more secure platform for your expensive accessories than a single-point mount. An integrated safety pin on one end of the cold shoe prevents your mounted device from accidentally sliding off.
* Versatile Compatibility: Featuring an adjustable sliding slot for the mounting screws (accommodating distances from 9mm to 18mm), this extension is compatible with a wide array of SMALLRIG cages and other brands that feature two adjacent 1/4”-20 threaded holes.
* Protects Your Equipment: A soft, integrated rubber pad on the back of the bracket prevents any scratching or scuffing on your camera cage, preserving the finish and integrity of your gear.

Main Features:

* Relocates a cold shoe mount to the side of a camera cage.
