When it comes to professional-grade lighting solutions, the 2340 43" Apollo Orb Speedlite Kit by Westcott stands out with its robust and versatile design. Engineered with sturdy fiberglass ribs, this kit offers enhanced durability, making it an ideal choice for on-location shoots and challenging weather conditions.
The Apollo Orb is a pioneering octagonal softbox that eliminates the need for an adapter ring, simplifying the setup process. Just open it like an umbrella, position your light inside, and attach the included high-quality diffusion panel. This kit is designed with a deeper profile, ensuring light is evenly projected for maximum output, while simulating a round catch light in the subject's eyes for a more natural look.
For added versatility, the diffusion panel can be recessed to provide even more directional control and to prevent lens flare, making this kit a versatile tool for any photographer. The kit also includes a Flashpoint Pro Air Cushioned Heavy Duty Light Stand, which is 7.2' tall, providing a stable base for your lighting setup.
The kit comes with an adjustable shoe mount bracket, allowing you to secure virtually all speedlites or hot shoe mount flash units. For use with larger light heads, a Mono Arm #1080 may be required. This professional-grade lighting kit is compatible with most on-camera flashes, making it a versatile addition to any photographer's gear.
In summary, the 2340 43" Apollo Orb Speedlite Kit is a sturdy, versatile, and high-quality lighting solution designed to meet the demands of professional photographers. Its durable fiberglass frame and versatile design make it a reliable choice for both studio and on-location shoots.
