Lightweight and Powerful

Each Clairmont strobe puts out 100 foot-candles at
4 feet. If you need more lighting, the compact 17" x 7"
heads

easily be gaffer-taped together. A 400-footcandle source measures only 34" x 14" (or you can
configure it 28" x 17"). Using tape to link heads -or
attach gels- is no problem, since the strobes run
cool. What's more, each head weighs only 10 lbs., so
a 4-head bank is only 40 lbs. That's substantially
lighter than any competitor's package.

Control The

Temperature

If

you're shooting food, you need strobes. Regular
"hot" lights will most assuredly wilt lettuce, melt ice
cream and have an effect on steam, condensation, etc.
With strobes, conditions are easier to control.

The

Sync Box automatically relays
timing signals from the camera. You can
capture input from multiple cameras and

synchronize them with the strobe pack(s).

Rapid Pulse and Recycle
Clairmont Strobes have

exposure time of
1/30,000th -substantially less time than the shutter
is open. This pulse flash, along with your T-stop, set
the exposure. You can maintain the same T-stop and
exposure level while varying camera speeds because
Clairmont Strobes have a very rapid flash recycle time.
Speeds of up to 150 frames-per-second are fine.
