Good strong mount for your monitor/phone
If you're a hybrid shooter, the chances are that you make use of an external monitor or recorder connected to your camera, either for a larger screen to better assess what the camera is capturing, preview the effect a particular LUT will have on your footage, or record in a superior format than your camera supports. Or maybe you're shooting video with a mobile phone, action camera or compact camera.If you're doing this then you're likely wanting to mount your monitor/recorder or additional camera in your main camera's hotshoe. I've tried doing this in the past with mounts intended for video lights but I've always found that these have struggled to cope with the weight of a phone if you're not mounting it straight up (and sometimes not event then).This monitor mount from K&F Concept is purpose made for monitors/recorders (up to 7") and phones being mounted. It features a large thumbscrew at the bottom for clamping the mount to a hot or cold shoe and another, slightly smaller, thumbscrew at the top for the 1/4" screw used to connect whatever you're putting on the mount. Should you need to attach the mount onto something that does not have a hot or cold shoe, there is a 1/4" thread hole at the bottom.On the side there is a knob to tighten or loosen for adjusting the angle of the mount; the tilt feels quite stiff and you may have to make sure you get into the habit of double-checking you've tightened the knob as I found it held lighter items without tightening and wouldn't want to develop the bad habit of not tightening it and then having an accident when using the mount with a heavier item.Speaking of which, the mount is rated up to 3kg which is probably rather more than most things you'll be wanting to mount on it; I couldn't find anything in my kit that would seriously put this claimed rating to the test.Aside from the stiffness of the tilt, which gives reassurance that should you forget to tighten the knob your mounted item probably won't move, the mount feels high quality with its all metal construction and the thumbscrews and adjustment knob uses K&F's usual orange colour.Overall this is a solid piece of kit that is handy to keep in your kit bag for the situations when it is needed.
