Professional Mounting Solution for Round and Rectangular Speedlights
The Glow S3 Bracket represents the next generation of universal light mounting, re-engineered to meet the needs of todays hybrid photographers and filmmakers. Building on the proven S-Type design, the S3 introduces a fully refined mechanism optimized for both round-head and rectangular flashes, combining superior strength, flexibility, and portability in one compact form. Whether you are working in a studio, on location, or in tight on-the-go setups, the Glow S3 delivers unmatched convenience and control for any lighting scenario.
Crafted with an upgraded non-slip silicone compression pad, the S3 ensures your flash remains secure without scratches or slippage, even during long shoots or angle adjustments. Its enhanced adjustable jaw opening now accommodates a wider variety of flash bodies, from compact on-camera units to larger portable strobes, allowing users to mount one or two flashes side by side for greater output and creative versatility.
Universal Compatibility for Any System
Designed for maximum adaptability, the Glow S3 Bracket fits nearly all popular speedlights and round-head flashes, such as the Flashpoint R2 series, square-head flashes including the Flashpoint Zoom Li-on III (V860III) and Zoom Mini (TT350) series, as well as outdoor strobes such as the Flashpoint XPLOR 300 Pro, XPLOR 200, and XPLOR 100 Pro.
One bracket for multiple flashes including the Flashpoint and Godox Zoom Lion X or V1 and X100 also Canon, Nikon, and Sony models. The flexible clamp mechanism securely locks around the flash head instead of the body or shoe, ensuring a centered light axis and reduced stress on fragile hot-shoe connections.
The S3 Bracket smart open-ring design allows for quick, one-handed adjustments, perfect for fast-paced production environments or when swapping between flash types.
Bowens Mount Ready for Full Creative Freedom
At the front, a standard Bowens S-type mount opens the door to an extensive ecosystem of modifiers. Instantly connect Glow full range of light shapers, including EZ Lock softboxes, beauty dishes, snoots, barn doors, and umbrellas, to achieve professional lighting effects with consistent output and color fidelity. From soft diffused portrait lighting to dramatic focused highlights, the S3 bracket transforms a simple speedlight into a powerful studio tool.
Compact, Portable, and Built to Travel
Engineered with mobility in mind, the Glow S3 folds flat for effortless packing and storage. Its robust yet lightweight frame fits easily into any gear bag, making it the perfect companion for event, wedding, and travel photographers. Despite its compact design, the bracket delivers exceptional rigidity and durability thanks to reinforced aluminum and high-strength polymer construction.
Adjustable Flash Angle & Versatile Mounting Options
The adjustable tilt arm allows smooth 0° to 90° rotation for precise control over light direction, whether bouncing off ceilings, shooting through umbrellas, or diffusing through a softbox. A secure locking knob maintains stability even with heavier modifiers attached.
The integrated umbrella shaft slot enables dual-modifier setups for soft, balanced lighting, while the 5/8" (16mm) stand receiver ensures universal compatibility with most light stands and grip equipment.
Precision Grip with Non-Slip Silicone Pad
A key feature of the S3 design is its newly engineered silicone grip pad, which cushions your flash head and eliminates movement during use. The textured, non-abrasive surface provides strong friction without scratching, ideal for round flashes or multiple rectangular speedlights mounted side-by-side.
This smart pad design ensures both single and double flash configurations remain perfectly centered for uniform illumination across modifiers.
Built for Professionals, Reliable, Efficient, and Intuitive
The Glow S3 Bracket combines engineering precision with intuitive functionality. Every element, from the quick-adjust lever to the locking mechanism, is designed for seamless workflow in both studio and field conditions. With no need for additional adapter rings or fragile shoe mounts, photographers gain a faster, cleaner, and safer setup that maximizes lighting efficiency.
