Hensel Integra Plus 500 FM Overview

The Integra Plus 500W/s Monolight with FREEMASK provides the control and power most photographers require, whether it's commercial, portrait, wedding, or industrial photography. The Hensel Integra Plus is a 500W/s multi-voltage monolight, which makes it useful worldwide, with a simple changing of the modeling light and plug adapter (both available separately).

This model offers a 6-stop range down to 1/32 power, which makes it perfect for photographers using digital cameras. It also features a built-in, 4-channel Hensel Strobe Wizard radio slave receiver, compatible with the Hensel Radio Slave Trigger, which is available separately. This head includes FREEMASK technology which is used like chroma keying to composite images. Used with the required, optional FREEMASK transmitter, the head automatically varies the flash output in sequential exposures to create a mask.

6-Stop Range
Adjustable in 0.1 stop clicks on the illuminated front panel, from full to 1/32 power output
FREEMASK Technology
FREEMASK is a studio technology developed by Hensel together with Schoepe GmbH which varies the flash output in short sequential exposures to create layer masks with minimal post-processing. (Requires optional FREEMASK transmitter)
Built in Strobe Wizard Radio Receiver
  • Allows wireless control of firing and power levels, with optional Hensel radio slave transmitter
  • Optical slave is also built in
  • 300 Watt Modeling Light with Power-saving Autoreduction
    The smart 300W modeling light goes far beyond conventional full and proportional power operation. An electronic system continuously monitors the unit's operation, ensuring that after an adjustable time (5 - 90 min.), the modeling light power is reduced to a preset value. As soon as the unit is reactivated, the previous value is restored.

    Been using these in the Philippines @ 240v for the past year.� Six months ago the first one died.� The the ready light never comes on.� Today the second one died with the same problem.� I would give it 0 stars but that is not possible.

    Amazing Light Quality!

    I've been using Paul C Buff strobes for quite sometime and finally made the jump to higher end lighting. For the price these lights are amazing. Big, big jump from Paul C Buff strobes. Consistency, controls, and ease of use are all on point and worth every penny.
