Absolutly horrible shot my mom took and I cropped me out...

Here is the one i have for now...

IMAGE: http://static.flickr.com/75/177417930_78fa884a49_b.jpg

I made it so you can attach it to the right side to the left side or right over the midddle. Very easy to make.. I painted it with the textured paint like on the head. First one was a test... i am going to make a better model i suspect, maybe even make them for others.. LOL

Ps.. was just setting up when mom took the shot so as you can see , I am not yet complete....

Eric, you just inspired me to try and make one for myself. Just a quick question, how do you align the aim of the flash?

The bracket(haha) is attached to the two screw holes on the bracket. I drilled through the metal after marking the holes. I bought screws ( reg head) that fith the existing threads. By the attaching direct to the bracket you are allowing the flash to follow along. The downside is the weight of the flash throws off the balance. Small price to pay and with your larger lenses this should not really be a problem.
