"S" type bayonet hostshoe adaptor

I have an interfit one, it's more sturdy that the bessel one, but it costs a wee bit more.
 
I've got a pair of the Bessel ones (Actually one was from Bessel, the other from JSCameraStore, both on eBay. The product is the same from both.). Build quality and strength seems perfectly fine to me, although I've only given them light and infrequent use so far. Certainly there is no issue attaching a 55cm S-fit beauty dish, as an example.

Not the best pic, but it's the only one I have that shows them sort of in use.

There are a lot of similar products around, you just pays your money and takes your choice:)
Lencarta have a similar one too, slightly more expensive but it has a proper bracket to take an umbrella. There is also one that takes 3 flashguns, either for when more power is needed or for use with softboxes, to give proper light coverage.
 
I wouldn't know a proper brolly bracket from an improper one, but the Bessel will certainly take a brolly....

A Bessel one arrived today, it does indeed take a brolly, so I can get for of an extra tilthead now.

Cheers all for your help.
