Stroboframe Bracket Shoe Mount, Item model number 300-SHO, do I have to be concerned about it shorting my 600ex-rt?

The Stroboframe bracket supports the flash unit by the edges of the flash foot. There is about a 3mm space between the bottom of the flash foot and the Stroboframe so the flash unit pins do not contact it.

It's called a "cold shoe" because there is no electrical transfer, so it shouldn't interact with your strobe at all.

No. 300-SHO is a coldshoe and doesn't have electronics interacting with your flash. It's merely an adapter to connect a flash onto a bracket (or anything that has a screw like lightstands)

I had it on the 600ex rt. firing is not an issue. However, it might be just me, this hot shoes and the flash just don't seems to lock nicely. Either screw too loose or not tight enough. Once the flash fell out and hit the ground.

I have no problem with the bracket shoe mount. I use two of them on 2 diffrent tripods and have no issues.

I am not sure what Guide Number of the Strobe Flash you meant? Can you explain what that number for. So i can ask our listing contractor,or our engineer to answer your question. Regards, kim

Without the hot shoe adapter the light can't stand on anything. It's really a proprietary adapter anyway. But since the light is so inexpensive you might as well buy it if you only need a new adapter.

Hi Brad, it would depend on the type of shoe mount the flash is compatible with. You can use this mount adapter if the flash is compatible with the Multi Interface Shoe. Thanks_Mitch

Yes the Bolt works perfectly fine with the 600ex-rt flashes I do it all the time.

You can see from the construct of the adapter that the clips will go around the bulb at roughly 1" below the bottom of the bolt - maybe more, so the shade *will* sit higher. I'm guessing the bolt has been soldered onto the device and cannot be replaced with a longer one. Thanks for making me look more closely because I've been struggling to find a clip-on shade just a little shorter than most, and now I can go with a spider shade!

These mounts are for hot shoe mount flashes. It does not fit any of my studio strobes.

I use them with 580 EXII and they are excellent. I'd contact Pixel Power through their website and ask them directly about compatibility with the 600 EX-RT. Saying that I just found out that it is comparable according to Flash Zebra's website.http://flashzebra.com/products/0265/index.shtml

I'm not sure the strobe mounts will accept a Sony hot shoe. They are designed for Canon and Nikon hot shoes, and I think the Sony hot shoes are significantly different.

Mine was reverse-threaded. I removed a standard 1/4-20 screw from a flash bracket and I was able to screw it in from the top. I thought about trying to find a reverse-threaded bolt to use on a quick plate but it's too much work for a $48 part. I'm dealing with Photodiox now to obtain a replacement since I was past the normal Amazon return period when I first tried using it.

I had no problem on the piece that fit on the camera. I have a Canon 7D. My complaint was the part that connected with the stroboframe bracket mount. It didn't hold very well. I was afraid that the flash would fall off and injure someone or break.

I agree with chuffyUSA and Randall S... I purchased one for my newly purchased Ultra Frame, and the mounting brackets/clamps DO NOT work with the Ultra Frame. Sending it back today.

This speedlight flash mount should work well with any shoe mounted flash. The flash mount is adjustable.It is to be mounted on a camera light stand and hold a wireless speedlight.

Yes, it should work fine. The first number (520) is the distance between the mounting holes in the horizontal direction and the second (200) is the distance between the vertical holes, both in millimeters (mm). Since the mount works with 600x200, you know that the holes in the vertical supports are OK for your TV. Since the horizontal spacing is controlled simply by how far apart the brackets are on the arm to which they attach, any spacing up to the max specified (600mm) is fine. Your brackets will just end up being a little closer together on the arm than they would be if your TV was 600x200.

As CoCo and Geof already answered, your 800 should be fine. You connect with the supplied cable(s). It's a circular threaded type connector which all mid to high level flash systems use. The threaded connection reduces/eliminates accidentally unplugging the unit.

I don't know why John wrote that it fits the 600, but it does not. I own the 600EX-RT and bought this on the chance that it would fit and it does not. I may end up rigging a snoot of some sort to make it work on the 600, but this was not designed for and does not fit the 600EX-RT. I'm sure they'll eventually make one for it, though.

I have both the 580EX and the 600EX-RT. The plug fits both units. I put a little sponge under each battery contact and it seems to work great.
