Should I Get a MagGrid 2?
Should I Get a MagGrid 2?
The MagGrid 2 is a powerful tool to efficiently focus light only where you want it, and not everywhere else. MagMod’s modular design allows you to stack as many MagGrid 2 modifiers as your heart desires, with each additional modifier providing you with even greater control over your light. A single MagBeam 2 will produce a 40° beam, while a second MagGrid 2 stacked on top will get a pin-point 20° beam!

Need some examples of how folks are using our original MagGrid and MagGrid 2's?
Photographer Jon Mold demonstrates in the below photo how to place light with pinpoint accuracy only on the subject camera. See how the light hits it and nothing else? The MagGrid 2 also helps prevent flare from your flash. In the Image above you can see the light sources, yet there is no light flare!
Below, photographer Eric McCallister uses two of our origional MagGrids to avoid flash spill on to the floor and background. This photograph perfectly illustrates how you can use the MagGrid 2 to avoid messy flash spill.
Using the MagGrid 2 as a kicker or accent light is one of our favorite ways to use it. Photographer Joseph Stefanchik shot the below shot with two speedlite flashes, each with an original MagGrid, behind the subject at about 45° out of frame. See how the light accents the side of his face? No lens flare, and the flash is perfectly illuminating exactly the area Joseph intended to illuminate.
Joseph Stefanchik demonstrates how the MagGrid 2 also makes an awesome background light. You can literally see the narrow beam pattern created, showing how much control you can really have over your flashes.
Now it’s your turn to create some amazing images!
