The Orbis Ring Flash Adapter / Converter uses your existing flash to create the same, characteristic ring flash look that has previously only been possible with expensive studio systems.
Ring flash has long been recognized as characteristic of high-end portrait and fashion photography. The preserve of the upper end of the market, studio ring flash systems cast beautiful shadowless light yet are bulky, fragile, unwieldy and costly.
The Orbis Ring Flash Adapter / Converter was conceived by a full-time professional photographer inspired by the Strobist philosophy and developed by top optical designers, the orbis Ring Flash is made from durable ABS plastic, weighs around 600g and is totally portable. The patent-pending ‘light-tunnel’ redirects the light from your flash/strobe transforming it into an incredibly effective ring flash.
A patent-pending 'one-size-fits-most' dock means that the orbis™ works with a huge range of flash/strobes with no need for add-ons.
The orbis™ enables you to take photographs with shadowless quality ring flash light - without the high costs associated with buying or renting a bulky studio ring flash. All you need is a standard flash/strobe unit and an off-camera cord (or other remote triggering method).
The Orbis Ring Flash Adapter / Converter is handheld so neither impedes your camera system's functionality nor relies on the fragile hotshoe connection. The orbis™ arm™, a simple kit enabling you to fix your orbis™ to your camera, is under development and will be released in 2009.
The Orbis Ring Flash Adapter / Converter was designed to give passionate photographers an edge; by enabling you to quickly and easily take beautifully lit photographs, and to get the most out of your equipment. If you're inspired to light in a 'Strobist' style using modular accessories, like softboxes and similar, the Orbis Ring Flash Adapter / Converter is ideal.
TTL functionality, a great price and all in a ring flash built to last.
