heh...sure dude...
 

i did some slight modification to the set, since i still prefer to use it as it is, the sponge is a tat too bulky... so i removed it... also went to adjust the the flash unit to be exactly on top of the lens in either position.

btw there is something i would like to add... the OC-1100 is kinda redundant now... cos the flash works with wireless... in either position & the built in flash will do the TTL or something... den the flash output is same as with or without the OC-1100... power!

think flare wins by not getting the OC-1100, but den again if we have a group of minolta users using wireless... we would be flashing each other's flash off... thats i guess would be the problem we need the OC-1100 now.

the wireless will be less likely to work in open space during daylight
and be reminded that your 7D batt will go flat much more faster. ;)

Well, hee, for me if I wanna shoot with a bracket, I think it'll likely be an indoor location. 'Cos if outdoor, and I need critcal control of flash location, I'll have my flash on a tripod anyway. And for me, think I won't really shoot so close to the subject that flash location in portrait orientation become very obvious...

But well, I may be wrong, Haven't tried shooting with a bracket yet... And I have sufficient batts for the 7D, even more if you wanna include the NiMh AAs ;p
