The Adaptalux Studio has enabled me to take my creativity to another level. The UV Arms in particular have taken me down a new path in my photographic journey. One of my favorite sayings is “in the right light, even the ordinary can look extraordinary’ – the Adaptalux Studio helps make this all possible.

Système super adaptable ergonomique flexible
Permet la réalisation d’une mise en lumière précise et juste
La flexibilité et l’ergonomie permettent de pouvoir transporter le système dans un faible volume
Je ne quitte plus le système il m’accompagne dans toutes mes sorties macro
Les lumières ont une balance des blancs juste et précise
J’adore ce système

So far so good with everything item that I have ordered. I am very pleased with the quality of the light arms/rods Unfortunately I have not had enough time to go out into the forest and give the system a proper going over. Spring is just around the corner.
My next purchase will be a flash. I keeping an eye on updates and am looking forward to the next iteration.

Device is really cool with all the features. Along with the app there’s a ton of options on how to use the lights for Macro photography. Well built, well packaged. A high quality product.

A versatile for numerous applications both inside & in the field

The UV options give extended versatility, and the flexibility means you can put the light exactly where you want it,

Build quality is excellent, and should last me many years

Had a little bit of trouble setting up the pod with the app but Ben’s patient and friendly help soon got me up and running. The lights are so flexible in use and simply ideal for macro use especially when photo stacking. I look forward to adding to ‘my studio’ when funds permit and will share my very positive experiences with members of my camera club. Adaptalux seems to be a real success story – my thanks and congratulations to all of the team!!

I had been using the Nikon flash system but didn’t fully meet my lighting needs. When shooting extreme macro shots, it was hard to get the proper light in the correct location. Since using the adaptalux lighting system it is so much easier to place the lighting arms precisely and see in real time, what effect it has. 100% satisfied.

Amazing flexibility for macro lighting control. One of the finest systems available, perhaps the best.

I have been using Adaptalux for a few years and have just upgraded to the Control POD 3.0, these are great for my Forced Perspective (TOY) Photography. The kit can be used for all kinds of close-up, macro and product photography, for which I have just lent part of my kit to a camera club member to do glass products and also used for a Forced Perspective Workshop I ran at our camera club receiving great interest. You can start small and build up to suit each type of photography that you participate in. I have met Sam & Ben a few times and they are a great team to chat and deal with. These products are well worth considering.

I am so happy with my Adaptalux lights! I photograph miniature scenes for children’s books and it’s always been difficult to find lights small enough. My work tabletop is a sheet of metal, so the magnetic bases I bought are perfect for easy and secure placement. The lights’ flexibility, dimming function and beam angle adjustment give me a great range of control, and the magnetic filters are genius. Excellent online tutorials by Ben helped to get me started.
The whole experience with Adaptalux was a pleasure; expeditious delivery, gorgeous packaging, well-made products and helpful communications. Great thought and care are apparent in every aspect of Adaptalux. Highly recommend!

I tested the starting pack on my flower photography, and the results were fantastic. It was easy to use, and the educational video helped me a lot.

I was happy with the efficient ordering process online, and how promptly I received my order. I was impressed with the design and build of the UV lighting system. It produces a much cleaner, and effective narrow band light that brings out the best in UV subjects. I like the way the system can be controlled through the Adaptalux app on my phone.

It’s not cheap, but the build quality is fantastic.
Just like a photo studio set up, you can set it up beautifully with the adaptalux app.
I can recommend it to everyone for macro photography.
