I know some of you own a Flip-it or Big Flip-It. Show me some shots you've taken with it. Also, are you satisfied with your Flip It?

Thanks!

Steve

I did this shot last night for a screen saver for my computer. My cat seems to have a hair ball problem and regurgitates more frequently than any cat I've seen.

I love the Flip-it. I have the Big Flip-it and value this simple little tool just about as much as my Better Beamer (Wildlife Fill Flash tool). I've used the Lumiquest stuff and don't care for it compared to the Flip-it.

That's really nice fill. My cat has the same problem. Fortunately, I don't live at home anymore (at college). My parents just moved to a brand new couch and my cat christened all their new carpet withing a couple of days. :lol:

Sorry for not including info, I suppose it's not entirely a well-known product.

Just got mine in the mail! Props to Joe Demb for getting it to me in two days! Initial impressions are very positive. The hinge is very sturdy, but still easy to position, and everything appears to be very durable. I would shoot some tonight, but I'm going to a concert out of town. Expect some tomorrow or Sunday of my motorbikecyclemachine.

Love the Flipit. It's like my existing bounce card except the ability to control the angle of the reflector, plus the ability to mount it on the short end of flash and quickly transition to and from portrait/landscape orientation is absolutely awesome. It will not replace a bracket but compared to everything else, the side shadows are so much softer and more acceptable. I deployed it on its first assignment yesterday and it worked great (sorry can't release those pics..)
