Overview

The SmallHD Gimbal Shoe Clamp (ACC-MT-GIMBAL-SHOE-CLAMP) is a straightforward mounting solution for filmmakers and videographers who need to attach a SmallHD monitor to a gimbal stabilizer. Many gimbals lack dedicated monitor mounting points, and this clamp solves that problem by providing a secure cold shoe adapter that can be positioned on the gimbal's handle or accessible rod. Once attached, the cold shoe accepts the SmallHD Tilt Arm or other cold shoe-compatible accessories, creating a stable platform for on-gimbal monitoring.

Built for the demands of production environments, this clamp is designed to hold firm during movement without adding unnecessary weight that could overtax gimbal motors. Its tool-free installation means quick setup and repositioning between shots. While it is part of the SmallHD accessory ecosystem and optimized for their monitors and tilt arms, the standard cold shoe interface does allow for some cross-compatibility with other accessories that use the same mounting standard.
