question
Hi,I'd like to attach 4-Canon 600EX-RT's to this. Can this be done right out of the box or is other hardware needed? Also, can this unit be attached to a an umbrella adapter?Thanks.
No, it will be just a bit too small. The flash is about 3.1 wide. Times that by four, you will need at the smallest a bar that is 12.4.The rail is 12 inches and the flashes need more space.We do carry one that is 15 inchesAnd a tilt bracket needs to be very strong to hold 4 flashes. I suggest one like Manfrotto makes. And a longer stud for the adapter is better.

question
I would like to extend my 7 monitor so that goes out beyond the camera lens so that when conducting an interview I can sit slightly in front my camera and still see what is on the screen. Would the 12 extension work?
Not stabile, sheiking in time of work.
