Getting the flash "off-camera" is the most important feature for any photographer. The Stroboframe Quick Flip 350 is a well constructed piece of equipment that will help you capture the moment for any wedding, portrait, family gathering, wheatever. Eliminate the harsh light "In-camera" flashes give and give you subject the flattering light it deserves.

We have used three Stroboframes in our wedding photography. It is a necessity. It is light, reliable, durable, and easy to use. It eliminates unpleasant shadows, putting the shadow behind and below the subject, and gives more detail to faces than on-camera flash.
Now, with a new digital Nikon, we may be purchasing a fourth Stroboframe. They are priced low enough to afford one for each camera.

Got it with a kit for the 580EX Canon Flash... I wish I would have researched it a bit more... the handle is a single peice of iron with padding over it... it's not ergonomic and is even uncomfortable when used for extended periods of time...

This is an inexpensive off the camera flash bracket. I modified the unit to accept a Really Right Stuff all purpose miniclamp that will not pivot in order to be used with any Arca Swiss type quick disconnect camera plate. I did not care for the Stroboframe camera plates. This is not a robustly designed unit like a pro RRS wedding use flash bracket. The handle grip is very cheesy, a molded soft foam piece slipped over the metal ell bracket. The arm pivot point should have a stop to make it easy to flp the arm 90 degrees and not go past 90 degrees. You get what you pay for.

I use the Stroboframe Quick Flip 350 to hold an external mic with my Canon ZR900. The bracket is small, the camcorder is small, and my mic is small, so it all makes a nice little, err small, package. It is easily held by the bracket and there's enough room to flip open the lcd and operate the controls.
It doesn't hurt that it also works with my DSLR to mount a flash.

Good bracket for the money, but when you shoot vertically it can be a little awkward to hold. Worth the price though.

Worked great on both my Digital Rebel and 10D. I had bought 2, one for me and one for back up photographer, we both used them extensively. Tilt and swivel flash is a must!

I bought this product to cover a wedding. I have plenty of studio lights, and I was willing to bring my lights for set-up in the church, but I was hoping this bracket would help soften the flash and allow me to create vertical photos with the same directional lighting I can achieve with an on-camera flash. It worked perfectly for me. I had no problems quickly shifting from vertical to horizontal, and I am a beginning professional. I decided to take it on my vacation as well, and it allowed me to get soft lighting in poorly lit indoor areas.

The only disappointment is that the Stroboframe camera anti-twist plate (that I bought with it) does not work with this bracket (and it doesn't tell you that anywhere).
You have to tighten the camera attach knob very very tight to keep the camera from twisting.
