by: Dirk

Description: <p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Introduction</span></strong><em> </em> The Metz 50 AF-1 flash for Nikon cameras. In short, it's a brilliant, full featured flash that will meet the requirements of those who primarily work with portable flashes. Although missing some features found in older and current generation Nikon Speedlights (i.e. the SB-700, SB-800, etc.), those who shoot with Nikon cameras should look to this flash as a viable tool in their toolbox. For those who don't normally shoot with portable flashes, there are alternatives which are smaller, cheaper, and more adept to occasional flash use.<em><br /></em><br /></p>

Portable Studio Lighting Kit 2 for Flash Heads

Wed, 09 Mar 2011 10:07:26 -0500

by: Jason Hermann

Description: The Westcott Portable Studio Lighting Kit 2 for Flash Heads is comprised of several elements. The Apollo and Halo softboxes are constructed using an umbrella frame. No speed rings are needed, just use the umbrella recepticle on your light. Easy opening and closing means easy set-up and takedown. The Apollo square or rectangular shape allows you to scrim or control the light more readily. The Halo provides a 140� of light spread. For direct diffusion, position the light facing the white diffuser panel. The light will have a bright center with a soft edge. The distance of the light to the diffuser panel will govern the brightness of the center of the light. For indirect diffusion, mount the Apollo or Halo with the light facing towards the back of the light modifier. With the light in this position, light will bounce off the silver metalized back of the unit and produce a more uniform, softer light. Use this kit to diffuse and soften the light from your studio strobe. The collapsible white/silver reflector fills in shadows with a soft, or specular quality. This size kit is suitable for a two-person portrait. <a href="http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/168577-REG/Westcott_1050_Portable_Studio_Lighting_Kit.html/BI/7257/KBID/7777&img=bh-logo-73x50.gif" target="_blank"> <img style="border: 0pt none;" src="http://www.bhphotovideo.com/images/affiliateimages/bh-logo-73x50.gif" border="0" alt="" width="73" height="50" /></a> <img src="http://affiliates.bhphotovideo.com/showban.asp?id=7777&img=bh-logo-73x50.gif" border="0" alt="" /> <a title="BH Photo Price" href="http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/168577-REG/Westcott_1050_Portable_Studio_Lighting_Kit.htmll" target="_blank">Buy At BHPhoto >></a>

Vagabond Mini� Lithium

Wed, 09 Mar 2011 06:37:14 -0500

by: Jason Hermann

Description: Vagabond Mini� Lithium comes complete with a high capacity plug-in battery pack, a 3 hour charger, a shoulder strap and a removable light stand mounting clamp. The Vagabond Mini� Lithium is a third generation controlled-current pure sine wave power source for operating AC powered studio photoflash units in the field from its built-in battery. It is offered in 120VAC and 230VAC models. Click here to learn more about the 230VAC model for international customers. Vagabond Mini� Lithium is small and lightweight (weighing just 3.5 pounds including quick-change high capacity lithium battery), designed to operate from one to four Paul C. Buff, Inc.� self-contained flash units (AlienBees�, White Lightning� and Einstein� flash units), but has application for powering flash units from other manufacturers*. The packaging is highly evolved and is completely enclosed within a strong, high-impact, flame retardant ABS housing. The battery is fully encased in the same ABS material and can be instantly replaced with the slide-in latching mechanism; there are no wires or user connections other than the AC outlets and charger inlet. The unit additionally includes a light stand mounting mechanism and a convenient carrying strap. The Vagabond Mini� Lithium inverter includes two outlets, a multi-level accurate battery charge indicator and a convenient front panel battery charging connection for the supplied 3-hour universal rapid charger (95VAC to 250VAC charger input). For operating 120VAC lights in 230V studios, the charger may be plugged in such that the unit is charging while in use, allowing continuous operation in most uses. For heavy use, spare batteries can be charged externally so that they are ready to instantly plug in. The Vagabond Mini� Lithium may also be powered from an external sealed lead acid (SLA) battery, if desired. The product utilizes the very latest LiCoxNiyMnzO2 lithium battery chemistry to provide extremely high power density and elimination of battery sulfating and poor efficacy that plagued previous battery-operated systems using heavy and inefficient sealed lead acid batteries. <h3><a href="http://alienbees.com/vmini.html" target="_blank">More info Here >></a></h3>

Vagabond II Portable Power System

Wed, 09 Mar 2011 06:20:33 -0500

by: Jason Hermann

Description: The NEW Vagabond II Portable Power System provides portable, battery power for all of our Paul C. Buff, Inc.� flash units and power packs, giving you the ability to power your AlienBees�, White Lightning� and ZEUS� systems in the field or on location where power lines are unavailable or unreliable. With the advent of the high power ZEUS� system, we felt it necessary to provide a significantly improved Vagabond II battery powering unit, offering faster recycle times from a single second generation PSI900GF pure sine wave inverter (designed specifically for Paul C. Buff, Inc.� lighting systems). This level of power from a single inverter is necessary for high power units such as the ZEUS�. The single PSI900GF inverter converts the power from the internal 20AH, 12 Volt battery into a current-controlled, pure sine wave power source. The system additionally includes a built-in global charger (for 100VAC to 260VAC charging), making it truly plug-and-play with no need for the user to disconnect or reconnect cables. NOTE: Vagabond II will operate 110V lights, but can be charged from any voltage from 95V to 265V. The Vagabond II also allows for easy battery changing and for connection to car batteries for all day shoots. Packaged in a heavy-duty nylon carry bag with padded shoulder strap, the Vagabond II system weighs 18.6 pounds, measuring 10.5" (height) x 8.5" (width) x 6" (depth). The Vagabond II can handle up to 6-8 flash units. To run more than one light, connect a power strip/surge protector to the Vagabond II, and plug your lights into the power strip/surge protector. The Vagabond II system arrives with the PSI900GF power inverter, the B20A internal battery (12V battery), the built-in global battery charger with charging cord, and the auxiliary battery cables - assembled and ready to charge inside the black and orange VIIBAG carrying bag. The Vagabond II system includes a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI). A GFCI is an electrical device that monitors the electricity flowing in a circuit to detect ground faults. This built-in GFCI allows for safe operation of the system without the physical ground requirement. The Vagabond II is designed specifically for powering Paul C. Buff, Inc.� products and we cannot make any claim for suitability with products from other manufacturers, nor can we accept any liability for any damage that might be caused to such equipment. We will, however, warranty the Vagabond II itself as well as any Paul C. Buff, Inc.� equipment it powers. The system is not designed to operate modeling lamps continuously as this would deplete the battery rapidly, cause slow recycle and could overheat the inverter. It is permissible to operate the lamps briefly for light composition, then they must be turned off. <h3><a href="http://alienbees.com/VIIsystem.html" target="_blank">More info Here >></a></h3>

SB-700 Speedlight Shoe Mount Flash

Tue, 08 Mar 2011 10:23:15 -0500

by: Jason Hermann

Description: Product Highlights: * FX/DX Format Recognition * 24-120mm Coverage (FX) * On-Camera & Wireless Operation * 2.5 Second Recycling Time (NiMH) * 3 Second Recycling Time (Alkaline) * i-TTL Operation * Thermal Cut-Out Detection * Filter Detection * AF-Assist Illuminator * Standard, Center-Weighted, & Even Illumination The SB-700 Speedlight Shoe Mount Flash from Nikon is an on-camera flash, designed for use with Nikon DSLR cameras that use the i-TTL metering system. It is compatible with DX and FX sensors, and its power zoom head covers a 24-120mm range when used with an FX camera. You'll be able to use the strobe directly on your camera via the hot shoe, or wirelessly as a Commander or Remote. Using the flash as a Commander allows you it to take control over other Nikon Speedlights, expanding your creative lighting options. As a Remote, it can be controlled by another Speedlight, or your camera's built-in flash. Its Quick Wireless Mode, with A:B light ratios, allows you to quickly adjust settings on multiple flash units -- giving you the ability to control two remote units in i-TTL mode. It features a dot-matrix LCD control panel with an intuitive layout for easy operation. It derives power from AA batteries -- supporting rechargeable NiMH, disposable Alkaline, and disposable Lithium cells. Recycle time is a scant 2.5 seconds when using NiMH, 3 seconds when using Alkaline. The SB-700's Thermal Cut-Out detection prevents the flash from overheating. It increases the recycling time if the temperature of the flash head crosses a certain threshold, preventing the unit from becoming damaged. The strobe includes hard plastic-type color filters for fluorescent and incandescent color temperature balancing. When you use these supplied filters, the flash is able to recognize which filter is installed, adjusting the white balance automatically on compatible Nikon DSLR cameras. It also features an AF-assist illuminator lamp, which helps to speed up the autofocus of your camera in low-light situations. The SB-700 supports three illumination patterns -- standard, center-weighted, and even -- for use in different shooting situations. Standard mode provides conventional flash coverage. Even mode covers the subject with even light across the entire frame, perfect for group photos where even illumination is desired. Center-weighted mode directs the light to the center of the frame, creating a vignette around your subject that is suitable for portraiture. Portable, Versatile Speedlight Unit i-TTL Speedlight optimized for use with Nikon's Creative Lighting System (CLS). Complete Flash Head Positioning Freedom Bounce 90� up and 7� down with 360� rotation elevates creative lighting freedom.

Description: Product Highlights: * FX/DX Format Identification * Guide No. 131' (40 m) at 35mm * 3 Light Distribution Patterns * 17-200mm Auto Zoom Range * Wireless Controller The Nikon SB-900 Speedlight is Nikon's flagship flash unit, and the most advanced in the Speedlight range. As a replacement to the SB-800, the SB-900 shares many of the same functions, but also has some innovative additions and improvements. Its automated zoom head has been expanded to cover 17mm to 200mm lenses (in 35mm/FX format), and can cover this range in just 1.2 seconds. This flash now lets you select from three light distribution patterns: Standard, Center-weighted, and Even. It will also automatically detect if it is connected to a DX or FX format camera, and adjust itself accordingly. The SB-900 can work as a stand-alone flash, or as part of a wireless group, either in Commander mode or as a slave (remote). The i-TTL system in this flash supports Advanced Wireless Lighting and versatile functions for up to four groups of Speedlights, with 3 remote i-TTL Speedlight groups controlled through the master SB-900. i-TTL Balanced Fill-Flash flash control employs Nikon's Advanced Data Communication system. This system provides an improved method for the monitor pre-flash and wireless operation that marks an evolution in higher precision over Nikon's acclaimed D-TTL Balanced Fill-Flash control system, and forms the core of the Creative Lighting System. Note! Please note that the SB-900 is only fully compatible with DSLR cameras that support i-TTL operation. With older cameras that use the D-TTL mode, only [A] Auto mode (non-TTL) is available. Multiple Flash Exposure Modes * i-TTL Balanced Fill-Flash with Nikon cameras that support i-TTL (e.g. D3, D700, D200, etc.) * [AA] Auto Aperture Flash * [A] Auto Aperture Flash with many film SLRs, including the Nikon N55 (F55) and FM10 * [M] Manual Flash Bounce Capability Flash head tilts down to -7� or up to 90� Flash head rotates horizontally 180� to the left and right. i-TTL Intelligent i-TTL system supports Advanced Wireless Lighting and versatile functions for up to 3 remote i-TTL Speedlight groups controlled through a master SB-900 or with the "Commander" function of compatible cameras. 3 Light Distribution Patterns Allows you to improve the light quality by selecting Standard for general illumination, Center-weighted for portraits, or Even for groups and interiors. Stroboscopic Effect Repeating flash for creating stroboscopic multiple-exposure effect. Mixed Exposure Modes Individual flash mode settings ([TTL], [AA], [A] and [M]) are available for each of the four groups (including master controller) for easy total lighting control based on the brightness of the subject and not simply on general output ratios for each group. FV Lock Flash Value Lock allows photographers to change the composition or zoom for the shot while maintaining desired lighting of the subject. Distance Priority Manual Flash Mode User can set the distance and aperture, and the SB-900 automatically sets the power output, a great feature for manual flash [M] shooting at weddings and for product shots. Colored Gels Allows modification of flash output to match background scene, especially useful for digital cameras where "white balance" can be controlled. Included are Tungsten and Fluorescent adjustment filters. Color Gel Filter Identification Flash automatically identifies mounted color gel filters and adjusts the camera's auto white-balance setting with select Nikon digital SLR cameras. Flash Tube Overheat Protection Includes a built-in thermal sensor that protects the flash-tube from overheating during sustained high-speed bursts. AF-Assist Illuminator The SB-900 provides improved AF assisting accuracy by being able to cover all 51 AF points with the D3, D700, and D300 (as of 7/2008), and with wider coverage from 20-105mm. Firmware Updating Allows uploading of performance enhancement developments to the SB-900 with select Nikon digital SLR cameras. LCD Large easily read illuminated LCD panel.

Digital Flash Umbrella Mount Kit

Mon, 07 Mar 2011 19:25:38 -0500

by: Jason Hermann

Description: This is an Impact Digital Flash Umbrella Mount Kit. It includes 2- Impact 32" White umbrellas with removable black backing. Umbrellas soften, broaden, and diminish the light output of any tungsten or flash light source. A white umbrella without a black backing may also be used as a makeshift softbox, although the use of the light will not be as efficient as with a light box. Choosing umbrella size is determined by the size of the subject, and the strength of the light supply being used. Choosing an umbrella surface is as subjective as choosing a paint and brush. Each umbrella is perfect for a 1 person head shot, or 3x4 ft product setup. Each of the two Impact brand umbrella brackets fit on top of almost any light stand, has different size stud adapters for various grip clamps, includes a cold shoe mount for your shoe-mount flash. It swivels, tilts, locks into place, and accepts almost any small to medium sized umbrella. The Impact brand light stands are black, air-cushioned, and rise to a maximum height of 8' (2.4 m). Impact brand light stands are well-known for quality at a low price. An air cushioned light stand protects equipment and fingers from injury if you forget to tighten the stand section locks.
