This is a cold shoe to quarter inch mount. Perfect for mounting a monitor or light that you want at an angle and rotated. So the bottom is a standard cold shoe base, but it will also except a quarter inch screw you locked the cold shoe with the thumb screw and then on the other end is another quarter inch screw that also has two retractable anti-twist pins. Between that is an articulating joint as controlled by a cam knob. The joint is rather stiff so if you have a heavy monitor, you'll appreciate it, but if you're trying to move it without anything mounted to it, it can be a little stiff. Then the most important part is the 360° swivel. So between the body of this device and cold shoe part is a bearing swivel that gives you smooth 360° rotation. However, if you wanna lock down the rotation to the angle that you're happy with you have tilt worn the utility arch that's holding the quarter inch mount screw out-of-the-way and it reveals an Allen key screw that you can tighten down with the provided tool and prevent any further rotation.This is a well built camera accessory. It is all metal. All the parts are machined well so there's no sharp or uncomfortable corners. My only complaint is how stiff the tilting mechanism is, but then again if you've got something heavy on there, it's probably a better thing.I think this is a good value for a high-quality machine camera accessory that gives you a lot of ability to make adjustments and then lock them in once you get the angles you want.

Does what I needed.I needed a 90 degree adapter so my overhead camera was moving in time with the screen. Thus having a 360 rotation was a bonus.

This is so much better than the other monitor mounts I've had, thanks to the fantastic build quality and adjustment capability.Other ones I've bought have soon fallen apart but this one is built like a tank and is very stable in use.Great value for money and I'm really happy with mine. I'd definitely recommend it to you

My other Manfrott shoe broke... Ball LDC that had cost me more than 60 euros and couldn't be fixed. I ordered several to replace it. Without a doubt this one could say that she is the winner. It grips the shoe incredibly well, has a very fluid robustness and swivel and looks of very good quality. It comes with an Allen wrench to adjust the hardness of the rotation and the butterfly is comfortable and has the perfect size. In addition, the orange color gives it a very pro touch that I really like. GREAT Zapata
