Directional diffusion for Flash Lighting Arms

Diffuse light in a single direction, with no sideways spill. Can be used in addition to gels.

Description

Add forward-facing diffusion to your Adaptalux Xenon Flash lighting set-up. This magnetic diffusion for Flash Lighting Arms softens the light and improves the visual appearance of shadows in your images.
The Directional Diffusion Flash Hood has opaque sides which prevent light from spilling onto unwanted areas of your scene. This can be particularly useful when lighting a subject with soft light but controlling the amount of light on backgrounds and other areas of your scene. This attachment is a middle ground between a honeycomb and a wide diffuser.
Diffusion is important to avoid harsh shadows in your images. Undiffused light can create specular highlights on reflective surfaces and leave distinct boundaries between light and dark areas of your image. Diffusion scatters light evenly over a wider surface.
This magnetic diffusion for Flash Lighting Arms attaches seamlessly to the head of your Adaptalux Flash Lighting Arms. This makes changing between Flash Hoods quick and easy.
Flash Hood Attachments can be used in combination with gels (included with every Flash Arm) to create coloured effects and add extra multi-layered diffusion.
Note: This product is for use with Adaptalux Flash Lighting Arms only.

I have set up some flowers inside for trying out my lighting arm, and adjusted the angle of the arm to try and get the best shot.

The Adaptalux studio lights and filters do exactly what they promise and give great results. And I’m a big fan of their YouTube videos giving lots of tips for new macro subjects and techniques. Their customer support is also rapid and effective. Maybe a small company but perfectly formed!

Lynton

Easy to use and the app to control the arms is awesome. Would highly recommend it. Customer service has been excellent and responsive.

Blair

The Adaptalux Studio proved invaluable in letting me position lights of different colors and intensities to illuminate not only macro scenes but also still life compositions.

Ted

The studio system was easy to set up and use. So many possibilities with the colours available

Graeme

I shoot mostly weddings and was looking for lighting my macro ring shots. This system certainly opened me up to many creative options. It’s easy to use and the results are fantastic. Fast shipping. Great customer service

Michael

This is a great product. It has completely changed my macro photos. It is so flexible and easy to use.

Great controllable lighting system that is perfect for Macro photography

In a time when personalized service & interaction with online companies is non-existent Adaptalux is above & apart! The email I sent asking for assistance was replied to within hours followed by a further interchange on tweaking my custom package – then they shipped out asap & it arrived in 3 days! (UK to South Africa – this is a type of world record! in Dec!)

Sharon

I purchased 3 UV arms and the pod. I love the lights and the app really makes them easy to use.

George

Since receiving my Adaptalux Studio lighting it has been a game changer. The flexibility that it provides and the ability to the light and more so the color of the lighting is exactly what I was looking for.

Brian

I love the flexibility to manage the light intensity and position of the arms.

Cláudia

Good experience with this system and the accompanying videos helped me to get to grips with the system pretty quickly.
Looking forward to eventually getting the UV lights and possibly a strobe or two even though I am a big fan of the always on lighting.

John

The uses of the individual light sources on the object is ingenious. It’s like post-processing images in the beginning…

Tom

Very innovative lighting set up and great customer service

Scott

I recently purchased this system and love it! Used purple and green lights with diffusers to highlight fresh asparagus and I thought it looked awesome. I will continue to play with the lights and macro lens! I would definitely recommend this and in the future, I plan on adding the led arms.
I am in Canada and I still find it hard to believe that this arrived in 3 days! Good job!

Dawn

My workspace is quite small and I don’t have room for lighting stands and sophisticated lighting equipment. The Adaptalux Studio will work nicely in my limited space.

Leonard

As I start to use my kit I’m finding the flexibility of control over the lights with the associated app is very useful. I also referred to the FAQ’s on the website to successfully solve a question by following the recommended advice.

David

One of the best things I’ve got in my kit, totally flexible, easy to use and with amazing results.

Laura

The adaptalux setup provides customizable lighting for any type of photostand.

I was drawn to the Adatalux system by the color arms and filters. Both have worked great to this point, and I’m still experimenting.

Joe

I recently completed Macro video filming of Gemstones and Jewellery for a Japanese National Television program. The very well built Adaptalux kit helped me get some amazing shots and the producers were not only impressed with the kit but how the images turned out and the kind of intricate control I had over the lighting.

HDCAMAN

Love the system. I even ordered the carry case to put them in. The box they came in was good, but I just wanted better protection and easy access.
Love the lights and the MACRO video ideas you share.

Roger

A very versatile solution to macro photography! The quality of the system is wonderful. We are rare coin dealers so the system does work well for that purpose.

Lenny

I use 2 Arms, white and red and illuminated my subject from the top. The effect was really great and it is easy to change the settings with the downloaded app.

Laurent

So easy from purchase to delivery to follow up. Great quality product. Really versatile. I love the UV lamps, still practicing to get my camera settings right though.

Andrea Maloney

A clever and well thought out dedicated design for macro photography. Great flexibility for lighting angles and colors for small subjects.

Kevin

Excellent customer service. Very quick delivery. Fantastic advice given if you are hesitant about purchasing these lights or any Adaptalux equipment.

Jean

I recommend Adaptalux, a tool not to be missed for our creativity in photography

Pedro

Working with constant lighting takes the guesswork out of the equation. The ability to place and project light in different colours and at different strengths continually makes you think about your composition and the many ways you could light your subject…. In addition, you can add to the system as you go along or as you skills and photography needs develop.
The Adaptalux system is innovative and fun to use. Moreover, it’s a demonstration of what can be achieved when you have a clear goal.

Steve

It really is super. It’s compact and easy to use. The light it produces is beautiful and easy to manage. I do a lot of petal portraits and this really helps to reveal their hidden beauty and personality. It really is an incredible value.

Dennis

Enjoying using my recent purchase and the uv arms open new possibilities to macro photography.Very clever

John

I ordered my Adaptalux studio over the New Year period when typically shipping anything to Australia is difficult. Not so with my Adaptalux starter pack, it arrived in 4 days. Everything was very well packed and I was able to start using it the day it arrived. Thanks for a great product backed by great service.

Jen

Definitely the best lightning system ever for photography!

Markus

My order was delivered Down Under in little more than a week and Sam/Ben answered a couple of beginner’s queries overnight. The products are sturdy and versatile. I discovered that the pod plus lights were best used attached to a spare tripod. I’ve been trying to watch all the excellent videos. I’ve been trying out various lenses and thinking of imaginative subjects. This is going to be so much fun!!

Anne

I was impressed with what I saw on Youtube and thought this is something even I could use, and I was right. With everything being compact as they are, it is quite easy to maneuver around just about any set up I can come up with.
