Flash Bracket - R Strap

MDalby

I have a D300 and I just bought the battery grip. I also have a R Strap that connects at the base of the camera in the tripod connection.

Prior to my buying the grip, when I took vertical shots, I was doing the chicken wing and my arm was up in the air so I didn't notice this potential problem. Since using my battery grip, I am holding my arm down and my palm goes straight against the R Strap fastener connected in the tripod connector.

I was thinking about maybe getting a flash bracket and the R Strap would connect to that.

Any of you have this same problem?

What do you recommend for a flash bracket if this would work?

Thanks,

MD

I have and use the Newton Brackets Di100FR2 Flash Rotator. Contrary to the implication from the name, this bracket allows the camera to rotate under the flash, keeping the flash in a constant orientation with respect to your subject. There is a "standard" tripod threaded socket on the bottom of the bracket.
