SmallRig Shotgun Microphone Holder (Cold Shoe), Built-in Soft Silicone, Bumps and Noises Absorption BSM2352

I’ve been the cheap plastic mic holders for awhile. With even the slightest bump, they either break or allow the mic to fly off the mount. This cold shoe mic mount it QUALITY and should be the last one I have to buy.The mount is made of aluminum, adjusts to fit different size mics, mounts to the camera securely (again with a metal ring), and is a matte black to blend in. It’s pricey, but looking back on how many plastic ones I’ve purchased over the years, I’ll save in the long run.The item comes nicely packaged is shipped quickly and returns are free. Small Rig has a variety of similar camera add ons and I recommend you check them out if you’re tired of cheap gear that breaks.

This microphone mount is well constructed and looks really good on my camera. Definitely worth it!

I use this camera for self-filming hunts and needed a better solution to mounting my shotgun mic. I was using a Rode SM3-R mounted to the hot shoe on my camera, but it never seemed to stay tight, and the shock mounts ended up breaking halfway through the season. I actually ended up removing the cold shoe adapter from the SmallRig mic holder, reused the mounting bar for the Rode SM3-R, and mounted the SmallRig mic holder straight to the SM3-R bar. It sits nice and tight to the camera, the SM3-R bar pulls the mic back about 4 inches out of the camera view, and it all fits really snug now. Definitely recommend this mic holder as well as SmallRig accessories (I also use their fluid head)

I have been a big fan of Smallrig products, this mic holder did not disappoint, well made, held microphone nicely with a nice rubber lining. There is strength to hold the dead cat wind screen nicely. This product will also hold larger mics. Great product to add to my gadget box.

I purchased this for use with NTG 2. The fit was fine, but the rubber mounts are weak and the mic flips back and forth a lot while using. I tried tightening but that wasn’t an option. Probably fine for smaller microphones.

Baffled by the terrible design flaw. Quality is high, but the soft mount design needs to be rotated 90 degrees. As noted in other reviews, the microphone has massive droop unless perfectly balanced. As far as I'm concerned, this is junk and I'll be returning it.

Love this thing! Bought a shotgun mic for my phone and it came with this cheap plastic holder that would bend under the weight of the mic and wind fury. This holder has no problem keeping my mic in place.

Same high build quality as everything else smallrig does, but it's heavy. So much so that when mounted sideways with a microphone, it bent a considerable amount. If mounting straight up, then it's not as bad, but I figured the point was to mount in different positions. It clamps the microphone well, and mine didn't move.The weight of a mic and the heavier metal build caused too much bending in the unit, and made it unusable for my application. It works well, but wasn't usable for my needs.
