Just wondering what kind of flash bracket can I get with 160$ budget?
I remember seeing one that looked pretty cool that can flip and with a spring on it, very good design. Though, I forgot what is the name.

Anyone got a great 1 to share?

I use a Stroboframe Camera-Flip bracket which I purchased for less than $15 (USD) used on eBay to replace a Chinese Knock-off bracket.

Here is my bracket on eBay which looks like it will end up at a pretty cheap price.

I far prefer the camera-flip to the flash-flip models because when bouncing, the flash ends up pointed at the correct angle when switching from horizontal to vertical positions.

I like this model of the camera-flip bracket because of the solid flash bar which I use as a handle when carying the unit...
