The Stroboframe Vertaflip PHD On-Tripod Camera Rotator (Professional/Heavy-Duty) camera rotator is a fast, convenient tool for rotating your camera horizontally or vertically on a tripod.  Gain speed, convenience and precision by rotating the camera without changing the lens axis, so that all tripod head controls remain in the same position.  Concentrate on the subject rather than fumbling with newly-positioned controls.  Switch between horizontal and vertical compositions with a simple flick of the wrist, keeping the camera's weight balanced over the center of the tripod to minimize vibration.

Especially Useful for Macro Shooting
The Vertaflip proves most valuable when shooting at higher magnifications, as any change in the lens axis results in exhausting changes in tripod position.
Soquete de tripé padrão de 1/4-20 polegadas (0,63-50,8cm) na base e um knob de montagem de 1/4-20 polegadas (0,63-50,8cm) em uma plataforma de câmera
A construção durável de elo duplo garante rigidez mesmo ao utilizar câmeras médio formato
Aceita Pratos Antitorção e Liberação Rápida Automática de Câmera
Peso 0,72 libra (327g)

    This is a great product that is well made and I highly recommend it. It is great for shooting group photos and then quickly flipping over for individuals. It can be adjusted vertically for different camera models or those with battery grips.

    The large cork area holds the camera well and it's easy to thread the tripod screw. I put a small piece of gaffer's tape on the bottom of my camera body as the rough texture of the tape helps to secure it well to all my stroboframe brackets which have cork mounts. I've used Vertiflip with with a Canon 20D with 70-200mm f/4 lens. I don't know if the product would support a heavy tele lens as the body may rotate on the cork. For those heavy lenses you probably need the rotating collar specifically designed for that lens.

    You do have to be careful when using a long lens and s slow shutter speed and/or a windy environment as this can cause vibration. In such a circumstance I'd say you're better off putting the camera directly on the tripod or using a cable release. But for studio work or reasonable shutter speed it's not an issue and the convenience is fantastic. Trying to shoot vertical shots with only a tripod is awkward and this product will really add to your comfort regardless of whether you use a ball head or three way head.

    Here's a tip that I discovered on my own. Remove the two screws holding the camera plate. Reverse the plate 180 degrees horizontally and reattach the plate. The camera mounting screw will be horizontally offset from the Vertaflip's tripod hole. Now if you put a body and a telephoto lens on it, the center of gravity will be nearly perfectly balanced over the Vertaflip's tripod hole. I think the product is far superior in this configuration and don't know why Stroboframe doesn't assemble it this way. With small lightweight lenses it doesn't matter which way you turn the plate as balance isn't a significant issue.

    Using Veraflip with video camera

    Increasingly, I shoot portrait shots with my DVX200 camcorder. I have a very solid right-angle tripod adapter that I fashioned from a very heavy angle iron (L-bracket). This give me all the stabilty I need but I needed a better solution for those times when I need to switch back and forth between portrait and landscape. So, I purchased the Vertaflip, but found that it isn't so stable with my video camera as it would be with a SLR, especially in normal; landscape mode it is very prone to shake. The remedy was to velcro a piece of wood as a stablizer behing the rotator between camera and tripod. It is easy to add and take off, and this will work for what I am doing. Smaller consumer camcorders might not have this problem, but the HVX200 is a bit heavy for this device.

      I was hoping that this would be an affordable alternative to the overpriced L bran\ckets. It is build rugged, but it is not as rock solid as I wanted. It is not as solid as the head that I wanted to replace with the Vertaflip.

        Sturdy, stable, very quick in operation, and it keeps the center of gravity of camera directly over the tripod. Only designed to hold your rig vertically or horizontally, so if you're looking for something that will allow infinite angles of rotation this ain't it. I don't see that as a problem, but I'm just sayin'... A bit heavy and bulky, but less so than other units I've tried and I can't imagine how one would design and build anything like this that wasn't heavy and bulky, so there we are.

              The product itself is a great idea and executed very well. The problem I ran into was that my tripod was already taxed to its weight limit with my current setup. When you add this extra weight then flip it vertical, it made for a very unstable situation. I returned the item and bought a new tripod with a higher weight rating and a solid ball head that easily allows setting a vertical shot. If you are using a light weight camera and a short lens, this would probably be an acceptable alternative if your tripod does not flip vertical very well.

                Comments about Stroboframe Vertaflip PHD On-Tripod Camera Rotator:

                Used this at a dance where the orientation wasn't consistent. The image stayed centered and this was easy and quick to use. Construction is solid but I don't know of a reason that the camera mounting plate at the top is not reversed - reversing it would make the load more centered. I use this with a video tripod that can support the imbalance so it doesn't make much difference but closer to balanced would be good. I like this a lot anyway.

                      Semi-pro: works great every time. Great for landscape and portraits. The price is outstanding. Looks a bit odd on the tripod, however, moves from horizontal to vertical in a split second.

                        Rotated without give. Super easy to install & use. By far the best rotator for anywhere close to this price range. I use Canon 50d with 28-135 plus on shoe 580 exII and this baby didn't give an cm.

Ingenious, simple design makes it absolutely effortless to switch between landscape and portrait camera configurations. Rock solid suport,and the multiple indexed screw adjustments allows the lens on my EOS 5D MKII with battery grip to remain nearly centered over the tripod pivot point whether in landscape or portrait configuration, which is a nice feature for shooting multiple sequenced panorama shots.

                            I wanted a flip bracket to fit on my Manfrotto 233B so I could shoot vertical as well and the Vertiflip works just fine. The Vertaflip is a bit bigger than I thought it would be, but it's very strong and holds my Nikon D200 quite solidly in place. It's also very good mounted to the tripod via a quick realse plate. The height adjustment plate is great for lowering the height of the camera.
