Cold shoe adapters have seemingly been around forever but Frio decided to take a hard look at the design to rethink and enhance it to its maximum potential with the Hold Universal Locking Cold Shoe. First they reduced the weight by using a strong polymer. That solved inadvertent flash firing from metal on metal shorting as well.
The Hold's patented DualLock system ensures that your valuable equipment is securely mounted. The patented DualThread receiver on the bottom of the Hold accepts both 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 stand and accessory screws. There's a lanyard tip to hang your radio receiver from, too. The Hold is compatible with most standard flash hot shoes on the market including Nikon's SB-900.
Key Features:
- Mount anything with a hotshoe; your flash, light panel or hot shoe mic to any tripod and many light stands
