Works like a charm
Serves its purpose, but...
This adapter is easy to use, does not damage up the electrical contacts on the advanced shoe, and has polymer shims so you can get a **perfect** fit. It allows you to mount any regular 'cold shoe' accessory such as a light or mic to Canon's 'S-Mini Advanced Hot Shoe' on the HF camcorders. The Mini Hot Shoe's main claim to fame is that it provides power to attached devices, but with a 890ma standard battery (6.5 watt-hour) on the HF-11 camcorder it sure isn't going to run much of a video light for very long. This adapter lets you use a commercially available light with its own battery, at a useful power level.
I am using the adapter to mount my RODE microphone to the camera's hot shoe instead of having to use Canon's 'mini-S Advanced' mic which can't be mounted on or used with any other camcorder. I also occasionally use the adapter to mount a Sony 20 watt video light with its two hour battery.
I have been using the mount for over a month with no problems of retention or damage to the camcorder. Overall I am extremely happy with this product. It is well worth the price.
