ROFL! If it did I could afford to pay someone to do all this. Instead he pays me. :-)

Just wondered. You'll find a lot of folks hereabouts like B&H...

Yep. Enough to cause me to spend a pretty penny (about $10k) there over the last half decade or so. At this rate, they should add my initial to the name.

Are you open to questions about B&H products, or is your participation with the prominent B&H logo just casual publicity for the company?

I'll answer any question I can without violating forum rules/protocol. If you've seen my posts in dpreview, Fred Miranda and elsewhere you'll know I'm not shy. :-)

Great. I've been digging around the B&H site for a table-attached vertical arm (12-24") with clamps to hold small items (plants, flowers, etc) to photograph against a background, with no success finding anything like this. Give me just a clue where to look.

Sounds to me like you either want a Bogen / Manfrotto 2930 Magic Arm or a Bogen / Manfrotto 2929 Variable Friction Magic Arm. Look here and particularly in the section there labelled arms. Another option might be a Bogen / Manfrotto 2936 Clip Clamp which you could attach to almost any stand.

Thanks, Henry. I ended up ordering a couple of Delta Flexgrips (along with another SV flood, a few light stands, a Pentax flash, etc). The other two grip items I want are out of stock, so I'll order them next time. For the vertical arm, I decided on a couple of bar clamps from the local hardware store.
