I also picked up this little hot shoe adapter. The little unit turns 1
hot shoe into 3. The idea being I can attach 2 mics and a video light
to it. The video light will allow me to shoot in the dump at night when
the people are working the garbage. I am thinking of shooting that work
up close to get a more surreal feel to it, showing the depth of their
hardship. Children also wander in the nightime garbage working and with
their parents. The bright video light spotlight effect in combo with the
garbage and youth will be a strong graphic that tells an important part
of the story effectively.
This unit cost a bit more, $20 USD plus $13.50 USD shipping but I liked the lower profile of it. I wanted something that would allow me to mount everything to the camera unit but also that would not look like deer antlers. I want to be as inconspicuous as possible in the dump, so am trying to keep my video gear compact and hopefully a bit less flashy and noticeable.
