I have a Dremel site. Can't believe the amount of information out there. Wasn't exactly what I was looking for, but interesting page. Take care. Hi there, just wandered by. I have a Dremel site.

My 550EX seems to fit very snug into the gutter outlet. I have held it with the beauty dish facing directly down and it holds on fine. I have seen other people's version with a velcro strap that holds the flash in more securely but I haven't run into a issue. If anything, I would build a tripod/light stand mount on the dish itself to take a majority of the stress off of the Speedlight itself. Stew,
