Product Description
The Pro-T is flash-rotating bracket. It is light, compact and fast handling with swinging flash arm to keep the flash centered over the lens for both horizontal and vertical compositions. This bracket does not require the use of a cable release. Unlike conventional brackets, the PRO-T is designed for you to hold the camera rather than the bracket, for a more natural way of shooting. Also allows you to instantly switch between horizontal and vertical compositions.

Amazon.com Product Description
Among Stroboframe's lightest and fastest professional flash rotating brackets, the Pro-T features a pivoting, machined flash arm that centers the flash above the lens, creating picture-perfect horizontal and vertical compositions. Unlike conventional brackets, the Pro-T lets you hold the camera rather than the bracket, providing a more natural way of shooting. It also allows you to switch between horizontal and vertical compositions instantly. The solid machined aluminum construction, meanwhile, is lightweight and rigid, ensuring superior balance in the hand. And thanks to the Pro-T's 3-inch downward flash tilt, photographers will enjoy improve lighting coverage for all typical flash shooting distances. Other details include an integral quick-release (QR) plate that mates to an optional QR receiver for quick tripod mounting, full compatibility with accessory battery packs or motor drives, and a nominal lens-to-flash distance of 12 inches. The Pro-T, which stands 9.25 inches tall and weighs 14 ounces, works with all Stroboframe flash mounts, anti-twist plates, and quick-release accessories.

What's in the Box
Pro-T bracket, 1/4"-20 camera mounting screw and flash mounting knob, cork base pad, flash arm adjustment wrench.

5 out of 5 stars A Great Product !   December 20, 2005

Stroboframe Pro-T bracket is very solidly built to last (Made in the USA). Metal is light but durable. It looks like the contructed metal taken from those of aircraft type material. I'm very impressed with the product. I mounted on my Canon EOS 20D. I'm just a start up digital amateur now all of my portrait vertical pictures are like a pro quality. The Pro-T eliminates the shadows on all of my portraits pictures. The bracket mounted fixed to the camera, and I just twist the bar where my flash attached to so that it's always on top of the camera all the time.

I first mounted my EOS camera backward. It didn't look right for the vertical bar was right on the front my face and it unable me to get close to the preview hole of the camera. I thought something is wrong. So I mounted the other way where the PRO-T logo letter faces outward. Then it looks just perfect! This bracket is designed for us to hold to the camera when shooting like you normally would naturally. DO NOT hold the bracket's handle. This bracket comes with a cork adhesive base so that the camera is mounted on this cork. This cork supposed to prevent the camera from twisting. I found out it doesn't work too well so I have to buy the optional Stroboframe Anti-twist plate 300-BE1 (Canon EOS mount). The cost for Anti-twist plate is $12.95. I highly recommend if you have a digital SLR camera Canon, Nikon...etc. Here's my summary:
1)Get the PRO-T
2) Mount it right. PRO-T logo faces outward.
3)Get the Anti-twist plate (Remember-each plate is specific to your camera brand)

I forgot to mention I have the Canon BGE2 the extended Battery Grip. This Pro-T works well with the battery grip.

Purchased this product because it was light weight and great to use. When I received the product there was nothing too it. The bracket was light weight but I could not shoot vertically with the bracket. This is not a functional bracket for professional photographers.


4 out of 5 stars Solid overall value and easy to use.   August 25, 2008

I bought this for wedding photography. Very solid construction for this price range. For me the best feature was a the bracket sets up on the right side of the camera so you can hold the camera normally and have access to the cameras direct controls. If you use it often and/or have a heavy camera I would recommend purchasing the non-slip plate. The cork board is good for occational use.

Very easy to flip for vertical shots.

Used it once. Just not a good option. Go to a brick & mortar store and try out different brackets. This one didn't work for me.


We'll be adding even more exciting features to assist you in the coming year.
