Hi all.
I've putting together a strobist style lighting setup, and I've got everything sorted except for umbrellas and umbrella adaptor heads for the stands.
As far as I can tell my choices are limited to either the cheapo ebay jobby of dubious providence and build quality, or the more durable manfrotto tilt-tite.
The problem is, the manfrotto example doesn't seem to have a hotshoe mount on the top of it, just a metal spigot (excellent word) top and bottom. Can anyone vouch for the quality of the ebay brackets, or reassure me that the manfrotto brackets do indeed come with something to mount a flash (SB-25) onto it. (Alternitively, a link to a further hotshoe adaptor for the bracket would do.)
