Testimonials
I just wanted to say thank you to Tara for some excellent customer service with my recent purchase. I needed a new camera pack and she was very helpful with going through the specs on the two I was looking at. Since I could not decide which one to get 8) she shipped both out for me to check out and said I could just send one back no problem. The order shipped about an hour after I placed it. Having both packs in front of me was very helpful. So thank you again - great product knowledge and great customer service makes me a long term loyal customer!

A little while ago I was looking for a top of the line tripod and various attachments for my lenses, etc. The advice, suggestions and help in general I received from a staff member was excellent and made the purchase a very pleasant experience. Ernst Schneider

Flash X-tenders

No "Better Beamer" has been manufactured for the Canon 420EX flash unit. A number of photographers have been able to make the FX-1B unit work with that flash unit but it has not been approved by the manufacturer for that use. The manufacturer doesn't recommend use of a "Better Beamer" on the Nikon SB-50 due to problems with rigidity.

Note About Ears: The ears refer to the part of side arms that wrap around the top and bottom of the flash head to help hold it in place. Narrow ears were made to fit flashes that had straight sides. Wider ears were made when flashes started to have curved sides.


*If your flash unit is not listed here, measure the height of the flash head or refer to your flash manual. For those 1 9/16 inches in height, use the FX-1. For those 1 3/4 inches, use the FX-2. The FX-1B includes shims to fit units slightly smaller than 1 9/16 inches.
