I just couldnt get use to it on my small camera, it was pretty uncomfortable to carry the camera while it was attached.

I returned it. It would not hold the flash, there is no way to secure the flash to the bracket and the lash would not sit securely.complete garbage, waste of money .

The angle is uncomfortable, the flash shoe is loose, and the grip is unbearable for large hands.

Great For Video Light!

I received this with my new video light (Savage Video Pro). It really helps to offset the weight of my camera when I use this light. It is a cold shoe mount, so you won't be able to use it for a flash without a remote connection. I use an external flash (on my hot shoe) while I'm using this for video, for quick pics I want. It all works very well on my Nikon D3300. Awesome Product!

Great if you need to mount a mic off your camera

This worked great for my needs. I have a Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera and needed better audio. This allows me to mount both and to better stabilize the shot by gripping the handle. For the price I think it's well worth buying.

Excellent add-on for multi-hot shoe products

I went in the BB to purchase an 82mm filter for my 24-70 Nikkor lens today, and found this Cold Shoe Mounting arm in the camera accessories area. I have always needed something to hold my GPS tagger while my flash was mounted on the camera, and this item is a life changer. I can mount the flash in the hot shoe, and then remount my GPS tagger on this Cold Shoe Mount and not have any items hanging while I taken photos. I shoot Real Estate with a Nikon D750, and if I have a larger lens mounted (24-70), this frees up my hands to adjust my setting without any interference from hanging items. You will not go wrong with this item, both the GPS tagger and the flash (SB700) fits perfectly onto the mounting bracket. Plus it can be adjusted to shift as you need more or less room, it your photographing a bathroom for example. Well worth the money spent. Pete

I am a wedding videographer,
I bought this terrible item for a wedding juts to attach a super small and low weight mic with my DSLR.
The screw that connects to DSLR broke inside the DSLR while using, smacked my camera on the floor and broke my CINEMA wide angle lens.
Do not buy insignia brand things. Terrible quality. Ive always bought insignia things, but this was my last time.
Last time i buy things for my videography business at BestBuy, its better to spend more money at prophoto supply or any other camera store.
