ULANZI MA53 Arca Swiss Smartphone Holder | with Ball Head & 2 x Cold Shoes
Product Description
The ULANZI MA53 Arca Swiss Smartphone Holder is the premium aluminium smartphone holder that combines an integrated ball head, dual cold shoe mounts, and an Arca Swiss dovetail base into one compact, versatile unit — giving smartphone videographers full angle control, accessory expansion, and fast device switching in a single piece of kit.
The built-in ball head tilts and rotates for portrait, landscape, or any angle in between, and locks solid with a single knob. Two cold shoe mounts — top and bottom — run a microphone and light simultaneously. The Arca Swiss dovetail base is compatible with Uka, Falcam F38, and standard Arca Swiss quick-release plates for fast swaps between setups. Five 1/4"-20 threads and one 3/8" thread, plus ARRI-standard location holes, open the MA53 to virtually every accessory ecosystem. The spring-tensioned jaw fits smartphones from 60mm to 100mm wide with or without a case, and TPE silicone pads on both jaw faces protect your phone from scratches.
