An apparatus is interposed between a typical camera hot shoe mount and a flash unit to permit multi-position adjustment of the flash relative the camera, without requiring modification to either of same. A base unit defines a generally spherical cavity in which a mated ball is movable. Front-to-back and sideways movements of the ball within the cavity are continuous, but limited in range by a hot shoe element attached to the top of the ball for support of the flash unit. Rotational movement of the ball within the cavity is also continuous, but limited as is its other motion to prevent damage to electrical wires which may optionally run through the attachment device for electrically interconnecting the camera and flash unit. A retaining cap is received about the base unit and may be threadably tightened thereto for retaining the ball in a desired position within the spherical cavity. The apparatus may include a flash foot on its respective bottom for mounting it and a flash unit it supports on a camera hot shoe.
