I suppose those pictures would be tagged as Macro. Isn't that your thing?
So, I think those marketing people in "Down under" did do their homework and research.

Run a search on E-bay for flash brackets and look for one which has a small ball head on the handle.
I picked up one of these

And it does a fine job

Its all a foreign language to me, but i get the gist of what you are saying, and i have to agree with everyone on this issue. Its just not good enough especially on a photographic forum. Images are what its all about, posting and viewing them, and if we can't get these 2 basic fundamentals right, then what is the point.

So how does the stroboflex handle the weight of those AF240FT flashes. Nimitz wrote:

The Stroboflex bracket is a bit expensive, but for me, at the time, it was the easiest and quickest option. I was never very interested in Blue Peter as a child so never got the hang of sticky backed plastic 'n string 'n stuff.

Could you make a link for this bracket please.The Stroboflex bracket is a bit expensive, but for me, at the time, it was the easiest and quickest option. I was never very interested in Blue Peter as a child so never got the hang of sticky backed plastic 'n string 'n stuff.

I do like the idea that you can remove links from it and when i first saw it a couple of months ago i tried to source some of those linkages but not even knowing what you would call them, I couldn't find any.

I'll be off over to http://www.pentaxforums.com now then. I'll have to buy a flame-retardant suit and a good pair of ear defenders and forget about posting anymore, but I simply cannot abide this monstrosity (and I really don't much like the other forums at all).
I'll pop back once in a while to see if Pentax User has relented (and seen sense), but otherwise I'm currently pretty sad and very angry that the very place that got me into Pentax photography has been completely ruined by people who are not using it every day.
Bye.

It may have something to do with them working on the site and trying to rectify problems and its interfering with posts and slowing things down :This is stupid, I thought I hadn't posted any of the above (I couldn't see them in the forum), it cut out a lot of what I wrote and then posted 3 entries!!

I quite like it, You would expect to get a few bugs at first but give it a couple of weeks and you will have forgotten the old forum.
I for one would like to have the country and/or city of each member put back under thier avatars.
If i am conversing with someone from Kikatinalong and I am close by in Weelabarraback it could be helpful to meet and share ideas and photo locations.

Looks quite good
How do you PM someone :
There is no longer a members list that i can see.
And your total number of posts has been removed.
Also your location and country. I would like to see this one back.

I have to agree with Mick, When i had my K100 i used the energier 2500
and i thought they were great, they used to last me ages and i tried other brands as well but none compared to the energisers.
I still use them now in my flashes.
