Retro Laser Reflector

The Retro Laser™ Reflector is a highly efficient bounce reflector providing a long throw of light with excellent coverage. For sports photographers and other applications where a long throw is desirable, the shallow 22-inch diameter reflector produces a bright, narrow beam of light with even illumination and near 100% focused light transfer. In contrast to our 11-inch Long Throw Sports Reflector (11LTR) with a hot center and feathered falloff, the Retro Laser™ produces a flat area of coverage with sharp falloff outside of the illumination field and is up to 1f brighter at an equivalent beam width. With the Einstein™ E640 unit at full power (640 Ws), the Retro Laser™ delivers an incredible f/16 at 40 feet (ISO 100). The high output allows you to lower the output on your flash for faster flash durations as well.

The reflector attaches to all Paul C. Buff™ flashes using the unique cage assembly and speedring (arriving with each reflector). Sliding the reflector along the shaft of the cage assembly closer to or further from the light adjusts the coverage from approximately an 11° to 30° beam spread.
