If it's built anything like the
Digital PRO-E model I have from them, it's very well made.
You will need a cord to connect your flash.
I had the one for my Nikon shortened so it wouldn't flop around.
I think the one you are looking at is the same model a friend of mine has.
It's less bulky than mine as it folds up.
If you shoot with battery grip (which I always do when shooting in portrait orientation), then it doesn't get as high as I like. But it is okay.
On the other hand, if you switch between landscape and portrait, then rotating the camera is a bit slow. You can get the S version for half the price and put a quick release lever Arca base plate on it.
I generally prefer using a couple of L brackets, an Arca quick release base plate, and a Velbon QRA-3 quick release plate for the flash. With an L-bracket on the camera, I can switch from portrait to landscape pretty quickly. I can also quickly take the flash off or put it back on the bracket if I want to change flash position. And I can adjust flash height.
Custom Brackets are excellent. I would seriously suggest checking out their RF-PRO model. Its more expensive, but WELL, WELL worth it. I can almost guarantee you will never want for any other type. I would recommend it to anyone, anytime. Check it out and you can contact me anytime if you have any questions about how I use it.

don't waist your money on this bracket go with custom bracket QRS-35-EVi have three of them there great you can go to horizon to vertical and the flash is always in the center and you get no shadows I use them when doing weddings.
