Very neat with all the options included for different thread sizes etc. Fits easily onto the Konig Lightstand. Very solid product -only just received it so can't vouch for durability but it looks promising

Sometimes it is true in that you get what you pay for. I needed a stand and flash holder for the portraits I was going to do. I didn't want to invest too much for something that I may use infrequently. I wanted to get something strong and that was going to last. After some research I went for this Manfrotto Adaptor. Is it worth the extra over a cheaper device?
Yes! The construction is substantial and feels very solid. There is a lot of weight in the device both in the main body and all the levers and knobs. It doesn't use a ball joint which makes it easy to tighten in position. True a ball joint would be easy to position and aim but this device give you a lot of confidence about it staying put. There are two brass adapters that are for mounting different threaded devices on top or for mounting the adapter on a stand.
This is well worth the extra money over a cheaper device. Though I haven't used it yet in anger I feel very confident about it doing what I want and not having to worry about if it is going to move and see the flash unit hit the floor because it has failed. Well worth considering.

Very solidly built - and heavy with it. Just to be clear on a few things: there is no flash hot shoe included, you need one to mount a flash on the brass threads. Also, the photo of the item is shown here upside down - the silver T-bar goes at the top. On that subject, it's an oddly fiddly solution, a second black handle would be much neater, or I have seen a blog post recommending a wing screw. Worth knowing (nothing tells you): the black handle is cleverly spring-loaded so you can pull it out and rotate it to a more convenient position *without* loosening or tightening its thread.
