Visual Echoes FX4 Overview

The Visual Echos FX4 Better Beamer Flash Extender will help increase the reach of the flash and increases the flash output by about 2 to 3 f/stops. It focuses and concentrates the output of the flash into a narrow beam via the fresnel screen that gets positioned in front of the flash. This allows shooting at greater distances and shooting with smaller apertures.

The Better Beamer is designed to be used with lenses 300mm and longer. Its rugged injection-molded plastic side supports are attached to the flash head by a sturdy elastic "hook-and-loop" band. The rigid supports hold the Fresnel screen in place in both horizontal and vertical formats. Just weighs 2 1/2 oz.

The FX4 version is designed to custom fit the Nikon SB-800 and SB-600 flash units, without any need for use of additional "shims".

Excellent for wildlife and birding photography, where long-distance fill-flash is often required, especially with a bright sunlight background. The use of fill flash opens up the shadows without the appearance that a flash was used.
When used with TTL flash metering, exposure is automatically set by the camera and flash, and no special compensation is required.
Reduces the drain on battery power by two-thirds.

The Better Beamer is essential for extending flash for bird and wildlife photography. It's simple, inexpensive, and most importantly, it works.

question

Will this fit on a Aperlite YH-700N?
Asked by: Russell M.
I don't know since I use it on Nikon flashheads. The key is the height of thesidesof the flashhjead. This is made for 1.5 inches (would fit on somewhat smaller flashhead, but probably not if the sides of the flashhead are taller.

question

Do the pouches have belt loops on them?
Asked by: Joe
Yes it does ...but for a thin belt. There is also a squeeze hook you can attach it to something, maybe on belt loop as well. I love this Better Beamer. Hope you do too.
