Is the cold shoe on the bracket removable, so I can replace it with my own cold shoe (e.g. Stroboframe or Frio)?

Well... Studiohut (the seller) should probably know better than me, but mine definitely comes off. I just took it off to see. There's an adjustment knob on the bottom that screws into the cold shoe from the bottom via 1/4-20 thread. Maybe I'm not understanding what you mean, or perhaps it's been re-engineered since I bought mine.

Yes you can move the Flash Forward or Back with out any issue because the cold shoes are on rails

Just a thought for Canon Vixia and other camcorder/GoPro users, in addition to Tom Khazoyan's answer about the adapter for mini shoe to standard shoe, you could also use one of those camcorder "handles" and mount the mic on the cold shoe at the top end of the handle. The handle is also great if want to do something like shoot low or create some interesting angles.

No, the brackets are used to install a footboard on a frame without mounting brackets.

I no longer have this fan, but, no, I don't think you could remove it from the bracket once installed.

It has a standard cold shoe mount. I use a generic hot shoe flash stand which can be put on any tripod. The flash stands sell for as low as $2 on here. Just do a quick search.

Hey Jim! The shoe mount with two screws. Not sure if you would want to drill into your C130 or not. You could use an epoxy as well so that you wouldn't have to drill. The finder bracket itself then slips into the shoe.

The swivel bracket has a permanent screw that screws into the rod below it on the picture. I don't know if you can actually remove it without ruining the swivel bracket. It's not a normal screw. The part you can see going through the swivel is smooth and goes through the bracket. The underneath screw part is not a round screw, but more oval shape with threading only on part of it. Hard to explain. The sizing would be tricky.

Yes, the lights can be removed from the metal bracket. But these lights are so small and dim, why bother?

Yes and no, it comes with its own bracket so you simply take off the little plastic one and put this one in its place. Beware I had to be careful not to strip the screws that came with this, they are very easy to strip the threading off of.

You have two choices: 1) Get the Nikon AS-21, which is the only cold shoe mount I know of that is designed specifically for the SB900. Or 2) Get an adjustable cold shoe (search that exact wording in Amazon). Advantage of an adjustable cold shoe mount is it will fit on almost any flash. Disadvantage is that they are poorly QC'd generally--so you don't know exactly if what you're getting will hold up over time.

Not sure which model SubZero I have, but there is a white plastic cover that is wedged into the top of the unit, covering the 4 bulbs. there is a groove in the back of that cover, so i could pull it forward with both hands, by using the flex in the plastic, to release it from the frame that it sits in. It took some elbow grease, and was hard to put back in completely.

Yes. They can be removed and switched to different pairs of shoes. I have done so on occasion. But because there is a small adhesive disk at the end of each insert that helps to ensure they stay in place it is better to keep them in a dedicated pair. Switching back and forth can wear out the adhesive. They stay in place pretty well anyway but work best with the original adhesive.I'm on my feet a lot and I'm heavy. The Pedag inserts ease leg pain and fatigue. I highly recommend them. I use them in all my enclosed shoes even sneakers and walking shoes. They provide much better support than the softer foam type inserts. Yes. They can be removed and switched to different pairs of shoes. I have done so on occasion.

The light itself has a coldshoe mount. There is a base that comes with it (cold shoe mounts to the base) with a standard tripod mount on bottom. If you use just one light, any tripod or manfrotto nano lightstand will work.

It's a cold shoe, so yep - a cord is needed. I only purchased this to attach my flash to a light stand and wirelessly trigger it. Hope this helps. Good luck.

If you mean to slide the shoe along the top arm, the answer is no. If you mean rotate the shoe, the answer is yes although this is not how the bracket is designed. The shoe is held to the arm by one Phillips screw. I loosened the screw and was able to rotate the shoe/tighten sufficiently to hold in place at other than the forward bracket position. If you had a flash with non-rotating head you could rotate the flash to bounce off a wall or activate an optical slave. Note that the hot shoe does not sit flush on the bracket if rotated due to a second screw flange. The second flange normally sits in a second hole to solidly hold the shoe in the forward position (two stubs fitting into two matching holes with one screw holding). When the shoe is rotated, the second screw flange stub holds the shoe about 1/8" off the arm and angling down to the screw.
