The frio™ coldshoe is the crucial connection between your hotshoe accessory and your lightstand, tripod, clamp or rig. Most commonly, your frio™ fits your off-camera flash to your lightstand.
But it works with anything that has a hotshoe connector, like many microphones, LED light panels, monitors, etc. to enable you to fit it to anything with a 1/4″-20 standard tripod stud.
Definition:
coldshoe - (n) pron. k?ld sh o? - a device for connecting hotshoe accessories to threaded photography stand apparatus.
Here are some of the reasons why you will love it:
Firstly, it is secure. A springy tab automatically clicks shut when you slide in a flash (or microphones, LED light panels, monitors, etc.) and needs to be pressed to release. There is also a hole in just the right place for Canon and Nikon locking pins to slide in.
Furthermore, it has the added security of a dual lock mechanism, so the gear you love the most (the expensive stuff) is safely secured to any lightstand, tripod, rig or grip that you’ve got.
Secondly, the tripod-mount is made of metal, which means it’s durable.
And lastly, it is small & lightweight enough to fit perfectly in your pocket, designer clutch or National Geographic Africa pouch.
The frio™ coldshoe... Giving you the assurance that your shoot will never fall apart.
