Yes it is expensive. What is peace of mind worth to you. When your strobe is extended 10 feet high, or any height for that matter, it is nice to know this Stroboframe Bracket Shoe is the anchor. If you value your strobe, this bracket shoe won't disappoint.
I'm in agreement with others on the price, but the funny thing is: we all bought one anyway. Well made and does it's job. I like the spring loaded adjustment knob, meaning I can use it with any portable flash in the future without having to buy another size. Bottom line: in the end, you get what you pay for.
I had some real problems with my Nikon speed lights(SB-600s and SB-900s) falling out of the cold shoe when mounted on lighting stands. This cold shoe solved the problem. Great product.
I am in agreement with previous comments on the excessive cost of this product and will raise you one: It did not come with a $0.25 screw to mount to my Stroboframe so I had to make a trip to Lowes before I could test it out. Works very well but how about a reality check on the price and included accessory (screw).
I compared it to my Dad's Calumet version. Functions as it should. Locks the strobe in place and can only enter one way (won't push through). His was cheap feeling. This one is solid with a lot more control with the red tightening screw.
