jim mucklin Posted August 20, 2004 Share Posted August 20, 2004 Does anyone know of a product that will go on top of a lightstand that will hold an umbrella and my sc17 cord? I want to use my SB-28 attached to the sc17 and fire it into the umbrellaThanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_Ingold Posted August 20, 2004 Share Posted August 20, 2004 Bogen makes a universal umbrella adapter, model 2905, with a reversible 1/4-20 and 3/8-16 stud on one end, and fits a standard 5/8" light stand stud at the other end. It comes with the studs, which is handy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adam_k_krause Posted August 20, 2004 Share Posted August 20, 2004 I found this from the B&H link posted : http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=productlist&A=details&Q=&sku=50067&is=REG how would something like that fit onto a tripod plate? is there a seperate adapter I'd need to buy? I have monolight stands that seems like it would fit, but I think I'd like an option to put an umbrella on a more portable tripod for smaller shoots where I'll be moving around alot.

richard_cochran Posted August 20, 2004 Share Posted August 20, 2004 Photoflex makes a clamp called the "shoe mount multiclamp". It's very similar to the others that have been listed. It comes with the proper threaded studs to mount it on a tripod or a lightstand, or anything else with a 3/8 or 1/4 inch male or female thread. <p> I have photos of it in action at <a href="http://webs.lanset.com/rcochran/flash/equipment.html">http://webs.lanset.com/rcochran/flash/equipment.html</a>. It don't know if it's any better or worse than the other alternatives mentioned, but it's the clamp I have experience with, and I know it will do the job.

manolis1 Posted August 21, 2004 Share Posted August 21, 2004 Adam, Go back to the posted link you mention and click on items include. You will see that the whole packet includes the reversible female stud you need for your tripod. You can see all the included items of the swivel bracket at Richard's posted link. Btw, I have two of them and I use them all the time with my light stands and my tripod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
