Z1 cold shoe

somewhere like keene/hague or even Maplin?
you might need to be creative about the thread size
do you know what it is?

Not sure on the thread size Dave, I'll check it out.

1/4" whitworth rings a bell

take look here

what do you want to do?

That's what I'm looking for Dave, I'm looking for a method to allow mounting a radio mic rx and, a video light.
Thanks for taking the time.
Pete

you might find that lot makes the camera top heavy.

I use a big bit of velcro to hole the RX on the back of the camera

Yea, I think you're right Dave but, there is nowhere at the back of the Z1 to fit anything without hampering operation so am looking for a combination of brackets to do the job.

I have a Velcro strip on each battery Pete.
Just Velcro the RX pouch to that. ( Sometimes also use it as a 'shot card' holder. Remember them?)

Pete - Does this mean you don't have the cold shoe that came as part of the Z1 package?

I'm pretty sure Manfrotto (or is it Rycote) sell a 'T' bar. It locks down into your Z1's existing cold shoe and ends up offering you two cold shoes left and right of centre.

Hi Tom,
That's correct, looking for the cold shoe that inserts into the threaded hole and, a T bar.
