The Half Inch Rails Bumper - an end stop for DSLR rigs

By Dan Chung

Sam Morgan Moore of Half Inch Rails has been busy again. It seems like not a week goes by without him launching a new widget; this time it’s the descriptively named Bumper – a simple end stop for any camera rig using regular spaced set of 15mm rods. I must confess this is not something I ever imagined that I needed for my rig, but if you think the risk of impaling someone on yours is too great then this is for you.
