Attach your phone to a tripod with this simply and sturdy adapter

I use my phone to shoot how-to videos and this smartphone tripod adapter is just what I need. It has two standard ¼ inch x 20 tripod mounting holes (one for a tripod and another for a dashcam mount). The clamp opens to fit almost any phone (even my iPhone 6 plus) and is spring loaded to grip the phone. Considering how useful it is, it's a bargain at $(removed)
