Lighting accessories for use indoors all around the home
Westcott Ice Light 2
● £549 ● www.fjwestcott.com
If you’re after a portable, continuous light source that’s great for light painting or adding extra illumination to subjects, the Ice Light 2 comes highly recommended. It has simple controls, provides daylight-balanced light that’s wonderfully diffused and has sufficient power with 18-step dimming control. Barn doors (£60) can be purchased to control the spill of light and the rechargeable battery can be replaced with a spare (£70) if you’d like to use it for longer than an hour. Users have the option to control the Ice Light 2 wirelessly from an iPhone or iPad using Bluetooth technology via the Ice Light app.
Ray Flash Universal Ringflash Adapter
● £99 ● www.ray-flash.com
The Ray Flash Universal Ringflash Adapter is the perfect way to transform a standard flashgun into a ringflash in just a few seconds. Great for indoor portrait sessions where you’d like to capture attractive catchlights in the eyes, the Ringflash adapter attaches to the front of your flashgun and hangs over the lens with an aperture for the lens to poke through. It replicates the unique lighting effect produced by heavy, high-powered and expensive studio ringflash units, plus you can shoot with the flashgun in TTL mode or manual mode with no ill effects on colour temperature.
