Description:

The Ray Flash is a unique adapter for your hot-shoe flash unit designed to replicate the lighting
effect produced by traditional, expensive, and heavy powered studio ring flash units.

The Ray Flash is portable and lightweight, and has been designed to take advantage of a
cameraÆs TTL metering capabilities. Because the Ray Flash relies on the hot-shoe flash to
generate its light, it contains no electronics, no flash tubes and requires no cumbersome cables.
The light distribution is accomplished through a sophisticated system of internal light-shapers
designed to distribute and project the light evenly around the lens.

The Ray Flash creates a unique ring flash lighting effect: a three-dimensional shadow-wrapped
look around the subject. Because ring flash light originates from a circle around the lens, it
produces a virtually shadowless look on the front of your subject, while producing a soft even
shadow around the edges. The versatile Ray Flash is ideally suited for fashion, wedding,
portrait, journalist and macro photography as either a main or fill-in light.

Exposure control:
All TTL functions operate normally when using the Ray Flash. As with standard flash use,
manual exposure control requires the use of a light meter or test-shots.

The Ray Flash is designed to fit the Canon 580EX (I & II) and Nikon SB800 flash units.
Weighing about 16 oz, the Ray Flash is lightweight and is easily supported by hot-shoe
mounted flash units. The 4 1/8ö internal diameter of the Ray Flash is large enough to accept
almost all professional lenses from Nikon & Canon. For the model range see the chart below.

Light output:
The Ray Flash results in minimal light loss from your flash's standard output. The Ray Flash
does not change a flash's color temperature.
