The Manfrotto 244ADPT-HS is a lightweight 30 g cold-shoe adapter that instantly converts the top 1/4"-20 stud of the 244 Mini, 244 Micro, or 244 Micro-AR friction arms into a standard hot/cold shoe mount. Perfect for attaching speedlights, LED panels, microphones, monitors, or any shoe-mounted accessory to a Variable Friction Arm—simply swap it in seconds using the included hex key.
The Manfrotto 244ADPT-HS is the official shoe adapter for the 244-series articulating arms. It replaces the standard 1/4"-20 camera stud on the arm’s top end with a full-size cold shoe that securely holds any flash, video light, field monitor, or microphone equipped with a shoe foot. Installation is tool-free after the first swap—just loosen the hex screw, slide off the original stud, slide on the shoe adapter and tighten. At only 30 g it adds virtually no weight, making it an essential upgrade for run-and-gun videographers and photographers who use 244 arms as on-camera or rig-mounted supports.
