Flash Extender

Visual Echoes Better Beamer

With the extra flash power you need in the field!

New models just announced....see below.

The unit by Visual Echoes packs flat, weighs less than 3 ounces and sets up in 30 seconds. The result is a flash output that gains up to 3 full f-stops, depending on your flash zoom setting. It is designed to be used with lenses 300mm or longer and TTL flash units. You can shoot at greater distances and/or with smaller apertures. Flash batteries last longer too! The rugged, injection-molded plastic side supports are attached to the flash head by a sturdy elastic band. The rigid side supports firmly hold the Fresnel screen in place in both Horizontal and Vertical formats. Editor Peter Burian of Outdoor & Nature Photography magazine had this to say, “highly effective and by far the most portable accessory of this type on the market. The gain of 2.5 to 3 stops in flash "reach" is a definite benefit for adding catch-lights to the eyes in overcast conditions. Anyone shooting action sports, birds or wildlife should carry one in his pack.” Now shipping with New and Stronger Fresnel Lens. Gain extra 1/3 to 1/2 stop!!
