Should I Get a MagBeam?Updated a year ago

Should I Get a MagBeam?

We don't mean to brag, but the MagBeam is the most unique, versatile, innovative, and totally awesome fresnel lens flash modifier ever created for photographers. 

When fully extended, the MagBeam + Tele Lens* gives you super-focused light with a hard edge, similar to a stage spotlight. Collapse the MagBeam down one or two stages to create a wider beam pattern while retaining the beautiful shape and crisp edges. 

It's like having a Hollywood-style fresnel spotlight that fits in your pocket. The MagBeam was designed to give you up to 2 or 3 effective extra stops of usable light. This means more light at a greater distances, and your flash recycles 4 times as fast. Yeah, it's a big deal.

The MagBeam's collapsible design isn't just for portability. Collapse it down all the way, swap in a Wide Lens and add a MagMask, and now you've transformed it into a pattern-projecting-thing-of-wonder. Mind. Blown. 

MagMasks are our custom-made stainless steel 'gobos' that create patterns to project through the MagBeam anywhere you want. Sweet huh?

*These lenses are designed to magnify and shape light. Do not leave them outside, in sunlight, or near bright or hot light sources unattended. When used improperly, lenses can produce intense light output that can cause combustion, start fires, or damage eye sight. Do not look directly into any magnified light source.
