The optional Speedlite Bracket SB-E2 allows the flash unit to be mounted to one side of the camera. Designed specifically for press and wedding photographers, it removes the harsh unnatural shadows that can appear to one side of the subject when shooting in portrait orientation with camera-mounted flash. Flash batteries are replaceable without removing the unit from the bracket.

This dustproof, water-resistant bracket can be used with the Speedlite 580EX II to create an entirely dustproof and water-resistant system. Three levels of height adjustment are available to help prevent unnatural shadows on the sides of objects when shooting from a vertical position. Useful for shooting portraits.

Compatible with the following Speedlites: 580EX II, 580EX, 430EX
