This is the sort of stand I had in mind: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/512193-REG/Manfrotto_156BLB_156BLB_Black_Mini_Kit.html I have one - it is quick and easy to set up. I put a small "ball head" attachment on the top to adjust (downward) flash angle beyond what is provide in the flash. A small pain to set up in the field, but for me 'tis less awkward than a single flip-flash bracket attached to the camera. I shudder to think of trying to use two flash on a camera bracket . . . YMMV.
