🎤 SmallRig Cold Shoe Shotgun Microphone Holder BSM2352 - Enhanced SEO-optimized Product Title Review

It's expensive but when you get the clip and see all the details it's worth it. There is a built-in shock absorber. Load the spring on the clamp to prevent the lever from rotating in the open position, etc.

I bought it to use with NTG 2. The fit was good, but the rubber mounts are flimsy and the mic often rocks back and forth during use. I tried to pull up, but that wasn't an option. Possibly suitable for small microphones.

Definitely worth the money. Sony charges A LOT for replacement parts (even for a 2013 camera) so this is definitely a better and cheaper replacement! It has bushings so it does move a bit, but there is a small price to pay.

This holder. Very practical microphone holder. Nothing to fault. It does its job very well, is very well made and has a sleeve at the base of the handle so that it can move a little and has a little play so that sudden movements don't cause any noise.

Very well made, but only good for the shortest shotgun mics unless you mount them in the center of gravity. There is a rubber hinge under the bracket that protects the microphone from vibration. My short Audio Technica AT897 sags if I don't press it closer to the center, which isn't a problem, but I would have preferred it to be a little forward. In general, this is very good.

I'm using this with a $40 MOVO block right now. Yes, this single mount costs the same as the microphone; but this mic has the pathetic pretense of a shock absorber. This provides damping and picks up the microphone very well. I've never had a problem with this mount and I think it's even better if you have a smallerrig cage for your camera to attach it to as well.

This is a dependable, well-made product that reliably performs its functions. It's not flimsy and its solid construction allows for a variety of microphones on my SLR. The handle is released with a simple twist and the microphones can be easily switched when needed. There is a strong lock ring nut that secures the rig to the camera's hot shoe so it doesn't come loose from the camera until you want it to.

I'm not sure what the designers were thinking, but this holder is incredibly wobbly, even when used with lightweight microphones. But judging by the build quality, you'd think it could handle a lot of weight. The problem is the small pieces of rubber that the mount sits on. This is the only thing that separates the mount from the hot shoe adapter. Any mic you put in this thing will cause the plastic to bend, and because it's so thin it bends a lot. So instead of a good, solid mic mount, you get
