Hot Shoe A hot shoe is a mounting point found on the top of most modern cameras, typically used to attach external accessories such as flash units, microphones, or other compatible devices. The hot shoe features electrical contacts that allow communication between the camera and the attached accessory, enabling functionalities such as triggering the flash, adjusting settings remotely, or synchronizing with the camera's exposure system.
Hot shoes are standardized across most camera brands, making it easy to interchangeably use accessories from different manufacturers. The term "hot shoe" originates from the electrical contacts that are designed to trigger a flash unit when the camera's shutter is released, providing instant synchronization for flash photography. |
