I kinda remember a post where someone using an Orbis Ring Light had either bought or DYI'd one so it was mounted to the camera using the tripod screw.

Does anyone have that link?

Does anyone know how it's done?

I was taking some pictures with the Orbis yesterday. It's doe shave a great look but i'm afraid to use it with a client. I dropped the damn thing twice!

Very recent post by the company (on their blog) shows a shot of the mfg's bracket that is to be ready for sale in a few weeks.
This is the most solid evidence of their effort to produce one. It is a bit behind schedule (about 7-9 months behind their initial release date).

Could be worth the wait.

Lotsa stuff, running outta room and a wife...I keep looking at her and wondering??? :lol:

Looks like they only have a teaser image of the arm right now. I'd be very curious to find out more as information becomes available.
