This Hague Shoe Adaptor converts Sony's small shoe found on most consumer camcorders to a full size shoe which enables other manufacturers accessories to to fitted to the camcoreder.
This is especially useful if you use the Rode video mic with a dead cat. When you use a wide angle lens you can see the fur when zoomed back. This device lifts it out of frame...
BTW I was told at a camera store that these devices would never become available because Sony would sue anyone who tried to market it. I ended up super-gluing the cover closed and then gluing on a cold shoe.
great! I have the exact same mic, and a similar (but newer) camera and that adapter should solve my issue! thanks for the vid
