Review on Westcott 2011 43-Inch Optical White Satin Collapsible Umbrella: Sleek Black Design by Patricia Williams

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Stem too big for Rovelight600 flash

Looks good but doesn't fit my flash clamp. The description sounded like it would fit most flashes and flash clips, my Rovelight 600 is a very common light source. the stem seems too large and is hexagonal instead of round. Maybe I'm missing something. My old umbrellas fit well. Update: They took it to the hardware store, their best solution was to file down the metal rod, after which they were able to fit it into the Rovelight clamp. They made it 1/2 inch so the tip now fits and feels secure. I bought a metal hand file so I can do the rest myself, at least 12 inches. :(Update: It's fun to file the shaft to fit my light. Will buy another brand.
