FAQ

The MC Pro magnetic ball head can slip. Is a screw mount steadier?

A cold shoe ball head gives the MC Pro a fixed, adjustable position on a rig instead of relying on whatever surface is nearby. Aputure pairs one with each MC Pro, together with a 1/4-20in screw to magnetic plate adapter.

Can I keep an MC Pro on my camera bag rig the way I do with the original MC?

Yes. Slide this ball head into any cold shoe on a camera or cage. Aputure lists it for both the MC Pro and the original MC.

Does it fit anything besides the MC Pro?

Aputure lists it as compatible with the MC, MT Pro, INFINIBAR PB3 and Sidus One, so one spare covers several small Aputure units.
