I am thinking about purchasing a beginer bee setup but I had a question. Can your lightstand/umbrella be adapted to use my Nikon SB600/900? At times it would be easier to use the Nikon CLS system rather than studio lights. If they are adaptable what would I need and where would I get such adapters. Thanks Dwight |

These shoe adapters are also very handy for mounting speedlights: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/52772-REG/Stroboframe_300_SHO_Flash_Mount_Adapter.html By the way, in my experience, CLS works reasonably well indoors, but you really need some type of radio trigger when shooting outdoors. YMMV. |

YMMV. Thanks for the info. The speedlights would only be use for very specific indoor events. It appears that the Calcumt adapter has a speedlight mount built in. Is that correct? Dwight |

If the Calumet has a built-in speedlight mount, you still might want to have them confirm that it works with an SB-900. The foot on the 900 is a bit thicker than "normal", so it wouldn't work with my first Lastolite EZYBOX. Lastolite, by the way, has "upgraded" their mounts to eliminate this little problem. |
