COMPATIBILITY
Q:
Is the ALZO
Flip Flash bracket compatible with my CANON or NIKON or SONY specific
model camera
A: The ALZO FLIP FLASH BRACKET is
NOT camera specific. The quick release camera mounting plate can
accommodate any camera with a 1/4" x 2 tripod female screw mount on the
bottom. The ALZO FLIP FLASH BRACKET can accommodate all digital
cameras, new and old models.
The only camera specific components of
the Flip Flash bracket are the accessory sync cords and the wired shutter
releases. The bracket does have weight limitations and it can be
taxed if you have a large pro SLR with a battery pack and you have a large
heavy lens like an f 1.4 zoom. Typical compact f2.8 or lesser lenses will
not over tax the bracket.
Q:
Is the ALZO Flip Flash
bracket compatible with my CANON or NIKON or SONY specific model flash.
A: The ALZO FLIP FLASH BRACKET is
NOT flash specific. The only flash specific accessory component of the
Flip Flash bracket is the sync cord.
RECOMMENDED BRACKET KITS
Q:
Do you
recommend the ALZO FLIP FLASH BRACKET softbox kit over the umbrella kit.
A: Our 2 popular ALZO FLIP FLASH BRACKET
kits including the softbox and the umbrella kit produce similar images.
The decision to purchase one over the other should be based more on the
weight, set up time and compactness. The umbrella kit is lighter, quicker
to setup, and is more compact for transporting.
LEFT OR RIGHT MOUNTED CAMERA
Q:
I prefer to
have my left hand on the lens at all times for focus and zoom control. If
I left mount the camera on the bracket, how do I press the shutter
release.
A: When left mounting your camera on the
Flip Flash bracket you will require our ALZO wired shutter release. This
device provides consistent shutter action regardless of the orientation of
the camera. Our ALZO wired shutter releases are available for most CANON,
NIKON and SONY SLR cameras. Our ALZO wired shutter releases provide two
step shutter action with AEL and pre-focus and then shutter release.
