Impact CA-108 Overview

The Impact Swivel Umbrella Adapter is a sturdy, well thought out piece of grip equipment that allows you mount a light and umbrella on stands up to 5/8" diameter. The tilt handle is a ratcheting type that allows you to reposition it as you tighten it down- a very handy feature in restricted spaces.

Two reversible 5/8" threaded studs are included. One is a female 1/4"-20 to female 3/8" that can be used as a stand adapter and the other is a male 1/4"-20 to male 3/8"-16 that can be screwed into a flash with a female tap. The studs are tightened down with a large sliding T-handle while the swivel tightens onto the stand with a large knob. The Swivel Adaptor's umbrella receptacle will accept 7mm and 8mm umbrella shafts.

Bracket tilts and swivels to make aiming the light or flash easy.
Has a locking umbrella socket that will accept umbrella shafts up to 8mm diameter.

question

HOW DOES THIS COMPARE TO THE MANFROTTO 026?
Asked by: Cheryl
This umbrella adapter has click-stops when adjusting the tilt. Manfrotto's 026 is infinitely adjustable. I find that the few degrees of difference in the click-stops make the aim of the light less controliable--especially if the light is rather close to the subject.

question

Asked by: Sean
Yes I believe it is. This swivel crank arm gives you more leverage when tightening. Also like the vise style tightener at the top. Can make half turns if something is in the way on top. Go with the 026.
