True power output rationing, variable dial-down power and model lamp intensity give absolute control with the Speedotron SP1005 power pack. Electronics engineered for reliability and safety on location shoots are housed in a dust-proof and compact sealed case.
Incredibly compact, the 103 universal flash heads are perfect for fitting into tight spots on location or in the studio.
These flash heads are ideal for those on a budget or those photographers who will not be putting much power through their flashtubes -- perfect for digital cameras, which do not require a lot of light. The color corrected flashtubes warm the hue of the light output by 300°.
This 2 Head 1000 w/s B&H Exclusive Kit is complete with umbrellas, light stands, and a travel case -- perfect for a portrait photographer on the go.
Meet the youngest sibling in the Speedo family--the Speedotron 1005 Power Supply (120VAC). This rugged, dust-proof power pack can be dialed down from 1000 w/s to 44 w/s (22 w/s using two heads) in 1/4 f-stop stages to make subtle lighting changes quickly. Up to 4 flash heads can operate symmetrically or asymmetrically, giving you plenty of choices on location or in the studio. Low voltage trigger connection makes the 1005 safe for digital cameras. With a top recycling speed of 1.75 seconds at full power, the 1005 makes a great choice for corporate portraits, interiors, and much more. This kit is supplied for use with 120VAC.
This is the tried-and-true, standard flash head of the Speedotron Black Line. Each 102 head is consistent in power output, and ease of reflector, flash tube, and model light change.
All Black Line light units utilize modular construction for easy storage and travel and are cabled with the new locking/quick-release power supply connector which is compatible with all older Black Line power supplies. A power supply for this flash head is required.
This aluminum Impact Air-Cushioned Light Stand rises to a height of 8' and folds down to 29.6". The stand has sure-twist section locks and 4 sections and will support up to 8 lb.
If you forget to tighten any section with your light mounted, the light slowly descends, thanks to the air-cushioned action. This useful feature saves equipment and fingers from harm during busy photo sessions.
Umbrellas soften, broaden, and diminish the light output of any flash light source. Umbrellas with a white interior will soften and weaken light more than an umbrella with a silver lining. 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 lightbox.
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.
This Impact 33" Beaded Silver Umbrella is suggested for use in head-and-shoulders portraits for one or two persons.
This 43" White Translucent Umbrella from Impact is a versatile all-around light modifier that will create a pleasing light that's far less harsh than a bare light source. It can be used with flash, LED, or fluorescent light sources. As a shoot-through umbrella, it broadens and softens the light source output and minimizes shadows, making it ideal for portrait photography. The translucent fabric's diffusing properties allow light source to be placed close to a subject for a softer light that's also great for weddings and fashion. It has a standard size 8mm umbrella shaft that is compatible with most umbrella mounts.
This 43" diameter umbrella is useful for lighting one or two people for mid- and full-length portraits. It can also be reversed to use as a bounce-style umbrella to cover a larger image area.
The black Light Kit Bag #2 (34 x 13.5 x 12") from Impact makes transporting your lighting kit easy and secure. The bag is designed to hold three monolights along with their reflectors (such as Impact VC500LR), four stands, boom, umbrellas, cables and other support gear but can also be used to hold other lighting equipment instead. You'll have plenty of room to take along enough lighting gear for a portrait session - all packed in an organized and accessible way. A touch fastened divider tray separates the stands, boom and umbrellas from the lights preventing them from bumping together and causing scratches or damage. For additional smaller equipment such as cables and small accessories, there are three interior 10.5 x 8.0" zippered mesh pockets.
The bag is made from soft, padded water-resistant nylon and contains six movable touch fastened interior dividers (6 large, 2 small) that will permit you to configure the bag to accommodate the gear you need that day. The Light Kit Bag is carried by its two 2" wide overlapping top carry handles that can easily be extended into dual shoulder straps. The contents are accessed via dual zippers that when placed together will accept a user-supplied lock. For even more protection, the bottom of the bag contains three rubber feet for when the bag is placed on the ground. And the bag folds down to a quarter of its height for convenient storage and easy setup. Whether for storage or transport, the Impact Light Kit Bag will serve both pro or amateur well.
