Q: 6. Seems like the only suspension product available for the Sony D100. The 2 existing reviews of the 041130 are quite negative, so is there another product (rubber/silicone?) that would fit the 3/8 thread and further dampen bumps and shocks? The intent would be to put a Sony D100 atop a camera or use a flexible arm connected to the same tripod the camera uses. Obviously, you don't want noise from camera movement on the tripod to enter the D100. Thanks.

A: Hi JDW26: thanks for your question. Unfortunately, this is the only solution we currently provide for the D100; we do not recommend making any additional modifications to the mount. Sorry we can't help any more in this case.

Q: 9. I tried it today but the setup is kind of difficult. Looking to understand how others use/store it. I wanted it so I can take full body shots in white background. I used my smallest (but still decent) stand and the stand does not allow it to reach to the floor (too high) so I had to hold it with a couple of boxes on the front of the softbox. It is too heavy for the AD600 to be able to hold it, another reason for the 2 cardboard boxes. Also how do you store it? Any photos of your setup ? Thanks in advance for any input

A: Photographers usually use a C-Stand with a sand bag.

Q: 10. How much to ship to Hong Kong?
