Thanks, the reason I ask was that its very similar to the Taurus system
and Murnaghan Instruments. The Murnaghan Instrument came out about 4
years ago and the Taurus was a copy. The Van Slyke system seems like a
well made item and copy similar ideas from the others. I guess no one
has a patent on it. I have the Taurus and its not cheap, just looks
cheap but works ok !...........hope it works for you..............
I could use a better system, but I hardly never use it, only the camera,
which I like, real light (plastic), works nice, leaks light if your not
carefull.................
