..it only took 2 months to get it!

I had completely forgotten about it and it just came in today. Kinda disappointed that it's Blue. Figured it would be black like the rest of the camera equipment world. hehe.

Got mine too. It's.... ok.

It does not feel a whole lot more secure than Nikons AS19 stand which offers multiple positions. I put it on a mono pod and was able to move an SB800 out of the Frio without having to push in the tab...

yep, there was an email last week about their shipment clearing customs and that they should be arriving. Now, I need to figure out a way to make this work with a radiopopper mount other than velcroing the RP to the side of the speedlight.

Mine came yesterday as well.

Too bad it won't work with the Sony/Minolta iISO shoe...OH WAAIT, they already have a locking feature designed in...

They do seem pretty nice though. Will be handy if I ever get my LP160.
