The Flashpoint R1200 Ring Flash Head for the XPLOR Power 1200 Pro TTL R2 strobe, the flagship series of fabulously brilliant ‘go-anywhere’ flashes. The R1200 Ring Flash Head is one of the most versatile, high spec ring flash available, with ‘unparalleled creative opportunities’ and is optimized to meet the vision of the ever-innovative professional photographer. This versatile GN of 174(ft)/53(m) ring flash is an instant favorite tool of the people studio photographer due to its ability to producevirtually shadow-free lighting, providing mysterious catchlights ‘rings’ in the eyes of subjects when used with fashion and portraitwork situations. Its most important characteristic is to create absolute even illumination with few shadows visible in the photograph. The flash is extremely camera friendly to use with the included folding compact bracket, a breeze to use with any DSLR or Medium Format cameras. Optional modifiers connect effortlessly to enhance, while the Honeycomb Grid direct the ring flash output to avoid spill. The circular photographic flash has been the light of choice for serious medical and dental photography where exquisite detail emanating from the ring-of-light is not comprised by harsh off axis flash.
This is the light that is unique among all the desirable strobes used to depict people in the best light. It has all the power to stop action, enhance shape and body, reveal unseen detail and illuminate without shadows. Plus, it runs circles around flashes that are more powerful. The most unique way that a ring flash renders a distinct effect is the shadowy halo surrounding the subject against a light background, a common feature of fashion photography. The size of the ring flash is also significant, so that light enwraps the subject from many angles in the same way that it does with a soft box.
The standard studio stand configuration, the R1200 provides sturdy stand mounting for hands-free studio set-ups. The option means besides being used on-camera with the included, fully adjustable folding camera bracket, the unit employs off-camera with or without an umbrella using the easily affixed umbrella bracket. The Ring Flash also offers a 40W LED constant lighting with 3 level output settings for modeling use or as a constant video light source at a maximum 7500 lux (1m). The LED lamps feature auto shut off to prevent excessive battery drain.
This rugged 1200ws flash can light beautifully – whether for fashion excitement, portrait (for key, fill or catch light) effects, macro detail, or for traditional softbox/umbrella applications with the freedom of reliable lithium energy on the XPLOR Power 1200 Pro TTL R2 flash.
