Mounting options

Update #5 · May 10, 2012 · comment

We've had a lot of questions asking what exactly is a 5/8" baby pin and what accessories can be bought that have it. The 5/8" baby pin is probably the most common mounting option in photography. Almost all strobe lights mount on the baby pin. Here is a video that shows a few baby pin mounting options. Here's a few links of where you can find the items in the video (and some others):
