3D model description

This is a simple, minimum size adaptor to allow the excellent Light and Motion sidekick to be mounted to a standard Gopro mount.
Whilst the Sidekcik comes with a moubnt for attaching it to a GoPro, there is a problem using this underwater.
With a Light mounted very close to the camera there is a lot of backscatter that degrades any image one tries to acquire in anyhting but the clearest of water.
Underwater photographers get around this by locating their lights remote from the camera and minimising the amount of light traversing the water directly in front of the camera's lens.
To enable this I mount my video lights on separate supports or the sides of a camera frame
