Retra-UWT

Man kann mit Fug und Recht behaupten: Licht ist das Wichtigste in der Fotografie. Längst hat sich herumgesprochen: Nicht nur auf die Lichtstärke kommt es an. Farbtemperatur, Gleichmäßigkeit in der Lichtverteilung, Weichheit und Modifizierbarkeit sind mindestens genau so wichtig.

Der klugen Köpfe von Retra-UWT haben sich deshalb nur einem Ziel verschrieben: die optimale Lichtlösung für die verschiedensten Situation im Wasser zu schaffen. Mit dem RetraFlash, dem Light Shaping Device und noch vielen innovativen Ideen haben sie dies in vorzüglicher Weise geschafft.

LSD Ultimate Light Shaping Device
Das Lichtformungsgerät ist speziell für Ihren Unterwasserblitz entwickelt worden. Die Lichtformungseinheit (LSD) funktioniert wie ein Projektor, der das Licht von Ihrem Blitz- und Pilotlicht nimmt, um einen Strahl mit einem scharfen Bild im Fokusabstand zu erzeugen. Das LSD verwendet Elemente wie Linse, Maske und Diffusor, um den Lichtstrahl zu erzeugen. Der Lichtstrahl Es ist einfach zu bedienen, auch bei deinem ersten Tauchgang! Wenn Sie die Kontrollleuchte einschalten, können Sie genau sehen, wie das Bild aussehen wird, bevor Sie den Auslöser drücken. Auf diese Weise können Sie schnell die richtige Position für Ihr LSD finden und mit der Aufnahme beginnen. Scharf - Weichzeichnung Du kannst Licht formen, seine Kanten schärfen oder verschwimmen lassen. Das linke Bild ist mit dem fokussierten Lichtstrahl. Der Fokuspunkt liegt bei 175mm vom Rand des LSD (in Wasser!). Das rechte Bild ist mit dem Lichtstrahl leicht unscharf.  Doppelloch-Präsentation Beleuchten Sie zwei Stellen mit der Doppellochmaske. Zwei Spots zu beleuchten war eine unmögliche Aufgabe, mit dem LSD ist es einfach! Sie müssen die Doppellochmaske einsetzen und den richtigen Abstand zwischen den Löchern finden. Die Positionierung ist ein Kinderspiel, denn Sie haben die Kontrollleuchte, die Ihnen zeigt, wo die Projektion sein wird.   Verwenden Sie das LSD für kreative Beleuchtung.  Der starke gerichtete und gebündelte Strahl des LSD ist perfekt, um mit der Position Ihres Blitzes in Bezug auf das Motiv zu spielen. Verwenden Sie es für die Seitenbeleuchtung oder die Hintergrundbeleuchtung.  " Eine leistungsstarke Verwendung der LSD besteht nicht darin, einen Spot in Ihrem Bild zu erzeugen, sondern einen Spot zu erzeugen, der groß genug ist, um Ihr Motiv und Ihren Vordergrund, aber nicht den Hintergrund zu beleuchten. " - Alex Mustard Beleuchten Sie größere Flächen im Weitwinkelbereich. Das leistungsstarke LSD kann auch für Weitwinkelaufnahmen eingesetzt werden. Das ist besonders interessant, wenn wir dem Thema näher kommen.     Das LSD ist zukunftssicher Wenn Sie Ihren Blitz wechseln, wechseln Sie nur das Montagemodul.
