General Guidelines
Mounting the Mylo Mini to a Camera
The Mylo Mini can be mounted to a camera by attaching the shoe mount supplied with the fixture to any camera that has a cold
shoe adapter. (Hot shoe adapters can be used with caution).
The Mylo Mini has a ¼-20" receiver in the bottom of the fixture that can receive the ¼-20" thread of the shoe mount. After
screwing in the mount and tightening the tension disk, the light is now ready to be attached to the camera. Loosening the
tension disk above the shoe adapter, you can slide the shoe mount into the cold/hot shoe of the camera and tighten down the
tension disk.
Mounting the Mylo Mini to a Stand
The Mylo mini can be attached to a stand as well buy using the supplied shoe mount that come with the fixture. The stands that
work most effectively with the Mylo Mini have a ¼-20 or 3/8-15 thread on the top of them. The shoe mount must be modified
to accept the stand by removing the bottom of the shoe and tightening disk from the mount. This will have a ¼-20 insert in
the mount and that can be screwed down on the top of the stand. (Removing the ¼-20 insert allow for you to use the shoe
mount with a 3/8-15 stand instead) The Mylo Mini can now be attached to the top of the shoe mount on the stand. This allow
movement of 360 degrees for placement of the fixture in any position that is desired.
