Acute/D4 Ring

The Acute/D4 Ring is an entirely mobile source of light. The internal diameter of 100mm provides plenty of space for most professional camera lenses. Since the camera holder can be moved forwards and backwards, as well as upwards and downwards, most cameras can be attached. The Acute/D4 Ring gives a direct light without any shadow on the fore- ground, this makes an excellent light source for con- fined areas, such as the interior of technical installa- tions. Many fashion photographers also use the Acute/D4 Ring to find new angles and capture details. The ring flash provides a very distinct, directed light, but can be complemented by the Softlight reflector, which increases the light source, thereby producing a softer light with little shadows. The optional Wide- soft delivers even softer illumination. For close-ups, there is a reflector that focuses the light to 50cm in front of the camera lens.The maximum charge is 9600Ws/ minute.This means 4 flashes a minute at 2400Ws, 8 flashes at 1200 Ws,16 flashes at 600 Ws, etc. Changing the flash tube is only to be done by a professional service station.
