Good news: It does the job tolerably well. Bad news: at a trifle over 50 bucks for a bit of tin, three discs and a rivet it's way overpriced for something you could fashion out of black-wrap in 2 minutes.
There are 3 different discs that swivel in to place, providing a total of 4 different choices for opening diameter. The smallest allows for true pin-point lighting on a smaller item at close range. This accessory definitely completes the Arri 150 Fresnel light!
This works exactly as you think it will. it's simple and fits. I have dropped it from low heights and dented the edge, so it's not the most durable thing.
The snoot is great for creating nice eye lights without adding too much to the overall subject. Definitely a handy accessory!
Great piece of equipment if you need to highlight a pert of your photo. I use it on arch interior shoots. Works great!
You got an Arri 150? You want a perfect circle of light, even a few different sizes? Then buy this. That's what it's for. Also works as a drink cozy, or so I hear ;)
If you are thinking about purchasing this item. DO IT. You will not be upset with your choice. The money is totally worth. Yes you can do the same thing with some blackwrap, but this is 100 times easier.You get 4 different sized screw plates for the snoot, and it fits perfectly into the 150. I think the snoot for the 150 is the only one I will need. I don't see myself needing bigger snoots for the Arri bigger lights as often and when I do need something like that for a 650 or a 1K, I will just use blackwrap. I have already used this every shoot I have been on and I plan on using it. I wish the 150 came with it. Be careful, because it does get hotter than the barn doors ever do.
Allows for a lot more control over your lighting and being much more precise. Also, the fact it has multiple options for the size is a great feature.
