Looking for simple flash/tripod mount
      #864082 - 26/01/2010 21:32

I've got a Pentax dedicated flash that will work wirelessly with my K10D. I've been looking without success for a simple adaptor that will screw onto a tripod screw or better still a microphone stand (cheaper and handier), and has an insulated shoe to fit the flash into. Could be made from a single block of Perspex smaller than 1" cubed.

Every shop I've been into says, 'Yes - er, no; sorry.' Do these exist? Thanks!

Do a search on warehouse express, they have them on there in the studio/lighting section

Thanks all (sorry for slow reply!). That's what I'm after. Why have Jessops and Wilkinsons (my locals) never heard of them, I wonder! (No reply required!!)
