Comparison with Sima SLB-M Video BracketDec 05, 2009
By Jackson Westenskow

Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/RE11EEDEODW45 This compares the Cool-Lux video bracket with the Sima SLB-M Video Bracket. I like this one better for my larger camera that already has a shoe on it, and I'll show you why!

Great ProductApr 10, 2007
By T. Poe Allows you to turn one shoe into two cold shoes. Very convenient when doing video using a wireless lav mic (presenter) and a shotgun mic (audience) at the same time.

Cool Lux Holds its OwnDec 23, 2011
By Amir Shariat Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R35OS8F0N6YZ1X If you've ever tried mounting any devices to a DSLR or video camera's hot shoe you know how frustrating it can be to be limited as most devices only have one available shoe. This bracket aims to solve that by providing you two cold shoe's for the price of one. I say for the price of one because it mounts in the camera's hot shoe, thereby adding one additional slot overall.
It's a simple and straightforward device that gets the job done. The two shoes are both cold (meaning they can't be used to power any devices) but most of these types of brackets are the same. This comes in very handy in particular for people that shoot a lot of video on their DSLR and need to mount an external microphone or any lights. I used this on both a Canon t2i and Panasonic GH1 and in both cases mounted a Rode NTG-2 mic in one slot and a wireless mic receiver in the other. Both devices fit very well and were firmly attached. The two shoes are at different heights from each other so you can mount oddly or oversized devices with less fear of them obstructing each other. The device seems to be machined out of a single piece of fairly thick aluminum so there was absolutely no noticeable bend or flex when in use.
The only addition I would have liked to have seen would be some sort of user adjustability in the height or angle of the arms, but that's a pretty small concern. For the price, this is pretty much a "must have" for anyone wanting to shoot video and needs their accessories mounted securely.

Surprising small packageJul 06, 2009
By I. King
"Renie"
First, it was a lot smaller than I had imagined, and there are no "stops" to keep your equipment from sliding off if you don't have it screwed on tightly enough.
Well, those "faults" are actually great features. It easily slides into a side pocket of my camera case(s), and the tall and short brackets are ideal if you need to change up lights/microphone from time to time. It is sturdy, you will not lose the screw - it is on to stay.
Just make sure your equipment is properly secured. I don't use any of the other brackets I purchased. This is my go-to on nearly every occasion. So I'm giving it a reluctant but well-earned five stars.

bracketOct 18, 2010
By bamber12 I got this for my camcorder and I love it. I actually glued a third bracket on the side of it. one for my LED light, one for my shotgun mike . and one for my wireless receiver. I wish it came with a third bracket holder.
