Manfrotto Cold Shoe Tilt Head (MLH1HS-2)

Introduction

A sturdy, advanced-featured entry into what some call the “swivel” market, the Cold Shoe Tilt Head from Manfrotto sports features that make it ideal for speedlights, compact strobes, and small LED lights. Ergonomics (as well as style) is considered at every stage of fabrication. The tightening knob at the base of the shoe is oversized and knurled for greater torque, as are the tear-shaped tilt and the tightening knob for the 5/8″ receiver. A safety feature of the tilt function is spring action, which prevents the supported light from flopping in its near 180-degree arc when loosened. Lastly, the Tilt Head has an umbrella receptacle for additional modifiers.
