Hi Pentaxian friends.

The AlettA Stabilizer introduced for the Pentax K-5 and K-7 is now available for Canon and Nikon. I figured since Pentax got it first, we should now share. I received my shipments for the Canon 5D Mk II and the Nikon D7000.

Upon receiving the newest batch, I drove to Sammy's Camera in Pasadena, California, to try them out. The Canon 5D Mk II had a 300mm lens attached and as you can see, it does stabilize the combination well. The Nikon D7000 also fits perfectly. I took some quick in-store pictures so that you can see how well the Stabilizer works. Essentially, it does all the same as listed here, but for the Canon and Nikon most popular cameras.

Note that we now have stabilizers for the Pentax K-5, K-7, Canon 5D Mk II, Canon 7D, Nikon D7000, Nikon D700 and D300s.

Pentax is still my Preferred DSLR, but maybe we need to share.

Thanks for stopping by,

Yvon Bourque

We may have the AlettA Stabilizer for your DSLR in stock and ready to ship. Check out for Pentax, Nikon and Canon DSLRs.

Hi Pentaxian friends.

I received a lot of emails asking if the current AlettA Stabilizer would fit several or all DSLRs. Not having all cameras brands and models on hand, it would just be guessing from my part to tell you if the current Stabilizer would fit under your camera or battery grip with certainty. I know for sure that it fits perfectly under the Pentax K-5 and Pentax K-7. I visited Sammy's Camera in Pasadena last week and traced templates for the Nikon D-7000, D-700 and D300s, as well as the Canon 5D and 7D. Upon close analysis, I found that the differences between all of these cameras, in terms of footprint, were negligible and that the current Stabilizer would indeed work just fine.

Although we are working on making dedicated Stabilizers for all of the most popular DSLRs, you may want to check the template below with your camera. I do have to say that the Stabilizer works better when installed under a battery grip for the simple reason that the distance between the lens and the Stabilizer is greater and allows for bigger lens (diameter wise).

Click on the image below to download a full size PDF image that you can print on your own printer. I included the dimensions so that you can check the accuracy of your printer. If not accurate, you can change the printer output in terms of percentage (up or down) until your print measurements are 1 to 1 when verified with a ruler. Note that you can also adjust the image size on your monitor until the dimensions are accurate, but you may risk scratching the screen.

P.S. If you have, or your friends have Nikon or Canon, or Sony or Olympus cameras, please let them know about the Stabilizers. It would be legitimate, for anyone but me, to post it's availability on any and all forums. I can't do it as it would be considered spamming.

Thank you for your visit,

My Visit to Samy's Camera in Pasadena...Impressed with the good service.

Hi Pentaxian friends.

For those of you that follow this blog, you already know that I recently got into a new endeavor, The “AlettA Photographic” accessories for Digital Cameras. My first item, launched about a week ago, the AlettA DSLR Stabilizer specifically designed for the Pentax K-5 and K-7, has been selling really well. I can’t wait to receive more comments, good or not so good, as long as they are constructive.

Of course, I don’t want to limit my sales to Pentax only, although I am a diehard Pentax fan and will always be. So today, I drove to the Samy’s Camera store in Pasadena, California. It’s about an hour drive from where I live. The purpose of the trip was to ask them if I could take the imprints of some of the bestselling Nikon and Canon DSLRs and battery grips. I really didn’t know what to expect. I could have driven there just to be told “No”.

After introducing myself, I asked for the Store Manager, Michelle, who was in her office. I was pleasantly surprised when she came in the store, just a few minutes after being reached by one of the Sales Representative on the floor. I explained my purpose and she immediately got Jeff O’Brien to take care of me. Jeff was really helpful and interested in the Stabilizer as well. He made all of the Nikon and Canon cameras and battery grips available, right then and now.

Jeff was as friendly and helpful as one can be. Thank you for your help.

I was so pleased with their assistance, that I couldn’t help buying some "absolutely and immediately needed" camera stuff. I purchased a 67mm ND8 filter and the new 3” Hoodman loupe.

So to put this visit in perspective, I now have the necessary dimensions to fabricate Stabilizers for the Nikon D7000, D700 and the D300S. I also have the necessary dimensions to fabricate Stabilizers for the Canon 5D Mk II and the 7D. All our Stabilizers are made of CNC machined aircraft aliminum, powder coated for a  hard and durable finish and come with a right handgrip plus three sets of adjustable legs.

Look us up in the near future. We should be able to ship the Stabilizers for these new cameras in the weeks to come. I am so excited, I’m puking rainbows.

Thank you for reading,
