Product Description
Backscatter Hybrid Flash Infrared IR Filter
The Backscatter IR Filter is available for use with remote lighting scenes to eliminate any light from the trigger strobe from showing up in the photo. It blocks all visible light while letting the power level signal and trigger flash transmit to the remote strobe.
Wireless Off Camera Remote Control
The Backscatter Hybrid Flash features a remote transmit and receive function for wireless remote control and triggering.
The remote system works by the main transmitting strobe, which has the ability to remotely adjust the power level of other Hybrid Flash receiving strobes. The included Hybrid Flash Light Pipe attaches to the fiber optic mount of the Hybrid Flash and allows for receiving the signal from the transmitting strobe without the need for a fiber optic cable or an electronic trigger.
No cables and no reaching out for a remote strobe to change power levels means less silt from moving around or potentially freaking out the critter.
Multiple Hybrid Flashes can be used in remote mode for a myriad of creative possibilities.
The Hybrid Flash shares the same remote control protocol as the Mini Flash 2, and both strobes can be used together remotely. This works great for off-camera remote side lighting, backlighting, and snooting with both the Hybrid Flash and Mini Flash 2 from the Backscatter Remote Lighting Muck Stick. Remote lighting is now easy to deploy and a breeze to use.
The Backscatter Hybrid Flash uses the same wireless remote control system as the Mini Flash 2, allowing the photographer to use both strobes seamlessly in their setup.
Two Hybrid Flashes and a Mini Flash 2 with a Color Filter were used in the setup for this shot. The front light is shot with a Hybrid Flash with the forthcoming snoot. The colored backlight is shot with a Mini Flash 2 and color filter. Another Hybrid Flash was used as the remote controller with an IR filter to remotely control the Mini Flash 2 at the back of the bottle.
