If you shoot video or create content, youve probably hit this wall: you want to mount your camera or monitor onto a stand you already have, but the threads dont match. A 1/4 inch post wont go into a 3/8 inch hole, and your setup grinds to a halt. Thats exactly what these adapters are for and its what customers reach for them most. The number one use is mounting a camera onto a mic stand for live streaming and recording: instead of buying a whole new tripod, you turn a stand you already own into a solid camera mount. The second most common use is rigging an LCD field monitor to a stand or arm so you can watch your shot while you film, at home or on set. The set fixes thread mismatches in both directions. Two adapters convert a 1/4 inch 20 female fitting to a 3/8 inch 16 male, and two convert a 3/8 inch 16 female fitting to a 1/4 inch 20 male both standard photo/audio thread sizes used on the vast majority of cameras, monitors, microphones, tripods, and stands. Theyre just as handy for mounting mics and boom arms, adapting a tripod to a camera, or attaching a webcam, LED light, or recorder. For content creators and video pros, this is the kind of small but essential accessory worth keeping in the bag the thing that saves a shoot when the threads dont line up. Each adapter is machined from aluminum alloy rustresistant, corrosionresistant, and sturdy with a black knurled finish thats easy to grip and tighten by hand. The threads are deep and burrfree, so they go on smoothly and hold securely without slipping. Frequently Asked Questions Q. Can I really mount a camera on a mic stand with these? A. Yes thats the most popular use. If your camera and your mic stand have different thread sizes (1/4 inch vs 3/8 inch ), these adapters connect them so the camera mounts securely on the stand.
