Your portable studio set-up

To create that studio look when you are on location, you need a lighting kit that is flexible and not too difficult to transport.    If AC power is available, anything from our home studio and pro studio pages will work just fine in your portable studio kit.  For the smallest, lightest and cheapest you can use the small battery powered units as featured on our off camera flash page.  However if you need lots of power, for overpowering sunlight especially with a softbox or umbrella, or faster recycle times you need the AC/DC powered units featured on this page.  If you are primarily a studio photographer who needs to use strobe outdoors from time to time, the units in the Pro studio page, coupled with their optional battery packs are ideal.  The added flexibility an AC/DC lighting kit brings to your repertoire is amazing.

 

For a very effective solution for location lighting, the Genesis 300B Flash units offer the power and control of an AC studio monobloc, as well as being a lightweight portable DC system when used with their optional Power Port battery sytem which can be charged at your studio or in the car.  The Genesis is actually a really great home or pro studio monobloc strobe, featuring full/proportional/off modelling lamp, 5stop range of flash output power, built in flash/IR slave and Elinchrom style reflector fitting.  These are safe to use with any camera with a sync voltage of 4.3V.  Fan cooled for continous heavy use and backed by Calumet's 1 year limited warranty, you know these will serve you well. The heads are around $270 and the optional battery pack around $190, wow. Best features and reliability for an amazing price, this one is a winner.  If you are still looking around, make sure you bookmark this page.
