Acute2 ring

The Acute2 ring is an entirely mobile source of light. The interior diameter of 100mm provides plenty of space for pro- fessional camera lenses. Since the camera holder can be tilted forward and backwards, as well as upwards and downwards, most cameras can be attached. The Acute 2 ring gives a shadowless light and it makes an excellent source of light in cramped areas, such as the interior of an automobile. Many fashion photographers also use the Acute 2 ring to find new angles and capture details. The ring flash provides a very distinct, directed light, but can be complemented by a soft light reflector, which increases the light source, thereby producing a soft light with little shadow.

For close-ups, there is a reflector that focuses the light 50 cm in front of the camera lens.

The maximum charge is 9600 Ws/minute. This means 4 flashes a minute at 2400 Ws, 8 flashes at 1200 Ws, 16 flashes at 600 Ws, etc.

Changing flash tube is only to be done at a professional service station.

Mounting the reflector:

•Remove the two ridged screws fixating the camera holder.

•Remove the four ridged nuts holding the outer and inner reflectors together.

•Run the lamp cable through the outer reflector and let the reflector slide into position.

•Reassemble the outer and inner reflectors using the ridged nuts.

•Reassemble the camera holder using the two ridged screws.
