Review on CM01 Camera Digital Recorder Adapter by Omar Thorndike

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Ideal for mounting cameras and other items that use the same type of threaded flange.

I had already bought one of these from another online store. This is a great product because a mic stand gives you more headroom than a regular camera tripod. Not to mention that between the price of this adapter and the mic stand you can save money compared to many of the best camera tripods. It CAN be tricky to get your camera level (which is the benefit of a camera tripod that has levels to ensure the camera is level). Small adjustments are not as easy as with a good tripod. There is a set screw on the opposite side of the knurled screw. If you ever have trouble locking the camera in position with the thumbscrew, you may need to tighten the locking screw (this requires a fairly small hex wrench which is NOT included). Aside from the camera, it threads onto the Peterson. Guitar tuner StroboPlus HD. So I bought a second one as I plan to mount my Peterson tuner to the pedal with a threaded surface mount flange. I believe that would be a better option than velcro. But it's designed primarily for cameras and is great for that purpose, as long as you don't need "bubble" levels like the best camera tripods and don't mind losing the ability to make minor changes in position with ease. I realize that my comments on the limitations it has compared to a regular camera tripod may seem strange since I gave this article 5 stars. But understand that I judge a product by what it is and how I use it. My comments on the comparison to a camera tripod are meant as a warning to people who might therefore expect it to have the same adjustment capabilities with this product.

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Ugly packaging
