AIS-POST - 1/4"-20 Threaded Post for Sony camcorders with AIS mount
If you have a 2013 or newer model Sony video camera, please check what shoe mount your camera has. You probably need the MIS-POST.
This adapter is built to order. Any orders may be delayed a few days.
This mini shoe adapter for Sony 2006 to 2012 models features all metal construction.
This is an adapter for Sony Camcorders with the Active Interface Shoe AIS to allow it to accept devices with a female 1/4"-20 thread (the standard tripod thread). This adapter tightens securely, it will not rattle or fall out. The knobs are anodized aluminum and the base and post is made from stainless steel.
Please note that this is only a mechanical adapter. AIS-POST will not pass audio, flash, or other electrical signals between the camcorder and mounted device.
Camera Compatibility
Any camcorder with the "AIS" or Active Interface Shoe socket should be compatible. The manual or product specifications will say what type of accessory shoe it is.
Sony HDR-CX7, HDR-CX730, HDR-HC1, HC3, HC5, HC7, HC9, SR1, SR5, SR7, SR10, SR11, SR12, UX1, UX5, UX7, HXRMC50U, HDR-XR520v, HDR-XR550, HDR-SR12, HDR-CX730E, CX740V, CX760, CX760V, PJ710V, PJ720, PJ740V, PJ760, PJ760V are known compatible.
HXR-MC50E/MC50P are also compatible. HXR-MC50U does not need this, it already has a universal shoe at the top of the mic platform.
If your camera model has extra letters on the end of the model number, the extra letters identify color or region specific models. That does not change compatibility.
The HVR-A1 is compatible but requires that the XLR block be disconnected, which is not recommended.
