    How can I mount this to a Manfrotto Heavy Duty Gimbal? I'm using the shoe it comes with and a Canon 100-400mm lens. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/554099-REG/Manfrotto_393_393_Heavy_Duty_Gimbal.html
    Asked by: Daniel
    Unfortunately, the Custom Brackets Tilt Head Flash Mount is not compatible with the Manfrotto Heavy Duty Gimbal. It could only be used with gimbal heads which offer an Arca type quick release plate.

    Does the extender come with the TFH mount or is it additional ?
    Asked by: Paul
    As you can see from this photo on our website this Extender Product is the Tilts itself. It is the Tilt Flash Mount. You would just need to connect your flash through its shoe. https://bit.ly/2WPGqsz

    question

    Is this compatible with the Nikon SB-910? Is there an adapter? Other brackets require an adapter (e.g. Wimberley F-1 requires the FA-11).
    Asked by: Pete
    This mount would be compatible with the SB-910 with the addition of an off camera TTL cable such as the Vello Off-Camera TTL Flash Cord for Nikon Cameras (1.5'), B&H # VEOCSN15. The 1/4 male thread at the top of the flash mount would connect to the thread on this cable. Please see the image below for reference.
