Betjeningsvejledning
Using the Barn Door
The barn door features four adjustable flags. These flags can be independently moved to precisely control the shape and direction of the light beam. By closing or opening the flags, you can concentrate light on a specific area, create narrow strips of light, or prevent light spill onto unwanted areas of your scene.
Using the Honeycomb Grid
The honeycomb grid is designed to provide ultimate control over the direction of your light. When attached, it transforms your strobe head into a more specular light source, emitting a focused beam of light exactly where you aim it. This is ideal for creating dramatic, hard lighting effects and reducing lens flare.

Using the Color Filters
The kit includes four color filters (Red, Yellow, Blue, Green). These filters can be used to:
- Add different background colors to your shots.
- Correct the light balance in specific lighting conditions.
- Create dramatic and artistic lighting effects.

Brugertips
- Combine for Control: For ultimate light shaping, use the barn door flags in conjunction with the honeycomb grid. This allows for both broad light shaping and precise beam control.
- Eksperimentér med farver: Don't be afraid to experiment with the color filters. They can dramatically change the mood and aesthetic of your photographs. Try using them as background lights or subtle accent lighting.
