Handy New Strobe Bracket available

How many times have we wanted to connect a Speedlight or Q-flash strobe to a bigger studio soft box?

The new Mini-Max Z-Bracket from Aurora solves this. This handy bracket will allow the attachment of any Aurora or Westcott soft boxes (and many others) right to any Hotshoe Speedlight or Quantum Q-flash. It also has screw mounting hardware for a radio slave and mounting bar for a battery belt clip.




The Z-Bracket is also included in a number of kits.
Kits include either a 12" x 36" strip, 24" Octobox or 18" square box, light stand and the Z-Bracket.

Introducing Strobies from Interfit

Strobies are a new shoe-mount flash light modifier line from Interfit, now availble at Tallyns.com. This line is based around the Flex Mount - essentially a speedring for shoe-mount strobes - which connects to the front of your strobe by pressure and does not require velcro or tape. Flex Mounts are available for the Canon 430EXII/580EXII, Nikon SB-600/SB-800 and the Nikon SB-900.

We have available for order the snoot, soft box, barn doors, beauty dish, 20 degree grid, 30 degree grid and the globe diffuser. We have only found two issues when testing these light shaping tools - The softbox does not connect/disconnect from the Flex Mount as quickly as the other accessories, and the larger accessories may block the TTL sensors on the front of your speedlight.
