  Smith Victor Extension Poles

  Posted by Eric Olson on April 8, 2010 at 8:27 pm

  Could someone tell me what adapter I need to connect this light extension to a pole?

  Don’t buy this extension.
  Buy a a more “universal” extension with a pipe clamp. A 5/8″ baby extension will also take a mafer clamp — the better way to go.
  You’ll only need the 3/8″ adapter to connect the light with.

  The only company I see that makes something similar is mole-richardson and they’re uber expensive.

  Sorry I am a videographer by trade, so if you wouldn’t mind translating that into layman’s terms it would be much appreciated.

  Cheers,

  Good for you. You’ve captured it.
  That’s exactly what you need. Just verify that you have the correct hardware to attach your fixture to the extension pole.
