Las Vegas, NV -- December 30, 2008 - Stroboframe, a division of The Tiffen Company, a Hauppauge, New York camera accessory company, announced the introduction of the U-Pro, the universal professional flash bracket for Digital SLR and 35mm cameras.  The U-Pro offers new Stroboframe design features with the same quality and engineering as its predecessors. Stroboframe U-Pro is available at photo specialty dealers nationwide. Suggested retail price is $269.95. 

The Stroboframe U-Pro professional flash bracket is a fully-functioning bracket right out of the box.  No need for additional accessories.  The U-Pro has been specifically engineered to fit almost every digital SLR camera on the market today and in the future.

The ultra-smooth camera rotating system, featuring a stainless steel roller bearing design, locks firmly into place while providing a smooth and virtually silent 90 degree rotation.  The exclusive TiltTrigger™ lets you adjust the flash up or down with click-stop precision. 

The flash arm is reversible and can be mounted on either side of the rotation device to accommodate “left” and “right” handed users.  Sliding vertical support provides rapid control of flash height.  Oversized control knobs provide a sure grip.

The Universal Camera Mounting Plate comes with a customized scale, and can adjust to fit any DSLR. The removable support arm for setting the bracket on a table or floor offers extra stability. The U-Pro offers significantly improved access over any professional bracket on the market.  It can be mounted directly to a tripod, or attach the QR plate and mount to the Stroboframe QR Receiver (300-BASE).

The U-Pro is constructed of T6061 and T7075 aircraft aluminum and is both lightweight and durable.  The U-Pro includes a QR Plate, removable kickstand, cork pad and ¼”-20 mounting knobs for camera and flash.

As with all of Stroboframe brackets, the U-Pro is backed by a 5-year warranty - your assurance of quality.
