Priced a little high but it works and is well made.
I put off buying this adapter as long as I could. I use painter's poles on location shoots with assistants and I went through 2 or 3 different types and tried my best to rig something myself. I mean $18 for the adapter made me at least try to fabricate something first but in the end...I spent the money and got it. It fits on any standard pole and I mount speedlights with beauty dishes or umbrellas and they work just fine for my helper to hold while I shoot. Unless you have a machine shop or lathe just buy it :)<br />I do wish the 5/8&#34; shaft wasn't cut down in the middle so my flash bracket could lock it down without cocking a little to one side. Since this is made for painters and not photographers that's not a deal breaker.<br />One more thing...don't waste your money any of the plastic adapters. That might work for a paint roller but not my Canon strobes. I want something sturdy I can trust and this is the only thing I've found.
