Orbis arm announced (press release)
Enlight photo is proud to announce the upcoming launch of a mounting bracket for the orbis™ ring flash – the orbis™ arm.
In response to requests from photographers around the world, enlight photo has come up with an accessory for the orbis™ ring flash that makes the orbis™ even more versatile.
By handholding the orbis™, photographers can move it easily to on or off-lens positions to create a variety of lighting set-ups in moments. But some photographers love shooting
exclusively with the orbis™ on-lens for longer periods. The orbis™ arm provides a solid mount for photographers who want to use their orbis™ in its primary ‘ring flash’ position for extended shoots.
The orbis™ arm is a compact and lightweight mounting bracket designed to work with the orbis™ ring flash and most of your favourite SLR flashes, cameras and lenses.
Built from 6061 aircraft grade aluminium and in a smooth powdered silver, the arm extends the possibilities of your orbis™, giving you the freedom to shoot on-lens for longer!
- Fits the orbis™ and flash to the camera using the solid tripod socket as the attachment point
- Four-way adjustable to fit a wide range of gear combinations
- Folds down quickly into a compact ‘travel mode’
“There have been a lot of helpful suggestions from the orbis™ community – the interest in this accessory to the orbis™ is very clear,” says orbis™ inventor James Madelin. “The
benefit of our ‘arm’ bracket over home-made ones is it works with every flash set up, it’s tough, you don’t have to spend several attempts making it yourself and it looks much sexier!”
- The orbis™ arm will retail at www.orbisflash.com NB: Ships to UK and EU customers direct from our UK warehouse.
- The orbis™ arm will also be available from participating orbis™ retailers worldwide (currently in the UK at The Flash Centre – London, Leeds and Manchester). See www.orbisflash.com for a full list of affiliated dealers.
The global launch date for the orbis™ arm is scheduled for late October.
