I can find no choice of 5/8" vs 3/8" mount selections on the Rycote site.
Do they not sell a 5/8 27 thread version?
Anyone know where I can find adapters for a 3/8" mount to a 5/8" stand (I
have pocketfulls the other way 'round) in Atlanta on short notice?
I make one that has a thumbscrew quick release also works on C-Stands and
5/8 in. Lighting stands to adapt them as Mic Stands.
Ask Location Sound Corp for the GoodSound Microphone C-Stand Adaptor.
If you want a threaded one check out B&H camera

Thanks Glen, but...
That's the other way round, but I see the correct one, too. The problem
here is the $8.71 shipping for a $3 part.
Chris Balance emailed me the name of a few shops to try here in Atlanta.
You might add the fact that the Invision mount is 3/8 only with no adapter
to the item specs on your web page. If I'd known, I would have bought the
adapters at the same time.

Good idea. The description revision with a link to the adapter will be
added by the end of today. Also, the adapter will be added to the
"Microphone Accessories" category.

Why doesn't Rycote just make a US version?
Because in the US most people use Rycote shock mounts on Fishpoles or Fisher
Booms which all have 3/8" 16tpi spuds on them.
Very few people would need to mount a shockmount and Windscreen on a
stationary Mic Stand.

For most people on this group, true. However, Rycote has more in mind
for the Invision series than just film/video production boompole use.
I understand they are considering a 5/8" stand adapter of their own.

And the Rycote site itself specifically states that this particular mount
is for studio use as well as boompole. There is even a series "not
suitable for boompole use."
different versions for boom and stand.
