Title: Adapter to mount Sound Pro's T-Mount on mini Cardellini clamp
Post by: fmaderjr on May 23, 2008, 07:34:26 AM

I have a Sound Pro's flexible T-Mount for mini-mics that has a 1/4" female connector. It will fit on my cheap camera tripod, but I would like to be able to mount it on a mini Cardellini clamp that has a 3/8" male connector. After googling for almost an hour, the only 3/8" female to 1/4" male adapter I could find that might possibly work is shown here:

Does anyone know if this will work (or know of another adapter that would be better)? I assume the 3/8" female part is at the bottom & not shown in the picture. I was expecting to be able to find  a simple adapter without the knob, but anything that works is fine.

that link you post sounds like it would work. Here's another that I think should work (if I understand what all you are looking for)

Thanks norma023! I like the looks of the one you recommend better. Plus it's more versatile for other uses since it can be 5/8 female as well as 3/8. Will give it a try.
