Neewer 10072124 Tripod Mount Adapter for GoPro Action Cameras

The Neewer 10072124 is a tripod mount adapter that bridges the proprietary GoPro thumb-screw mounting system to the universal ¼"-20 tripod thread standard. That single translation unlocks a significant creative resource: every tripod, ballhead, gorillapod, monopod, and light stand already in a shooter's bag becomes compatible with their GoPro or action camera. For photographers who want to incorporate wide-angle GoPro footage into a project — time-lapses, behind-the-scenes coverage, low-height perspective shots — this adapter eliminates the need for a parallel GoPro-specific rig. The compatibility list is broad, covering GoPro Hero 1 through 5, Session variants, and a wide range of third-party action cameras that use the same mounting interface standard.

The adapter is small enough to live permanently in a camera bag without claiming meaningful space or weight. In practice, it excels in controlled setups — studio time-lapses, interview B-roll from a fixed angle, or locked-off wide shots on a sturdy tripod. It is less suited to high-vibration environments or configurations where the camera is loaded with heavy housing accessories that increase leverage on the mount point. Build quality is functional for an accessory at this price tier; the ¼"-20 thread is standard hardware and holds reliably under the light load an action camera represents. For photographers who want to put a GoPro exactly where their existing tripod goes, this adapter solves the problem cleanly and without compromise.
