Key Features
- Compatible with Canon E-TTL / E-TTL II
- Holds Speedlight
- Flexible Gooseneck Design
- Ideal for Macro Photography
Reinventing the standard flash cord, the Vello Flexible TTL Rod provides additional stability and control over placement of your flash, without requiring the use of a bulky bracket. This model is compatible with Canon's E-TTL / E-TTL II system and will allow users to move their flash off-camera and place it in a more appropriate position in order to create a more flattering light. The 13.5" flexible gooseneck makes it ideal for macro where you want the flash close to the subject, as well as portrait photography and can help create a more natural or dramatic look. Additionally, the rod has a locking foot in order to make sure it is secured to your camera.

question
A flash bracket is typically quick to rotate from horizontal to portrait mode. Is this too stiff to bend without putting pressure on the camera hotshoe? Thanks.
In a fast moving situation, I agree with the previous comments: use a flash flip bracket. This is a very useful tool (macro work, weird shading for ultra-wide lenses to protect them from flare and stray light, etc.). It is stiff enough to hold flashes, etc., but I wouldn't want to use it without being able to take care in terms of putting excess pressure on a hot shoe. Hot shoes aren't meant for that use, really - they're meant to provide an electrical connection and trigger. Any other use is gravy and or risking your gear. Good luck!
