These accessories help use the Lumedyne gear and add creative options. There are also other brands of accessories offered by the companies who copied our reflector style.
The Gel Filter Kit is a plastic ring adapter that allows the use of 6 inch square or circular gel filters with any five inch reflector.
The adapter allows you to sandwich in between it's disks, one or more color, diffuser, or neutral density filters to modify the light coming straight out of the reflectors.
The kit includes three common color temperature shifts to make the flash look more like indoor lighting color temperatures; one green one for florescent, one yellow one for incandescent and one darker yellow for halide lamps like at a sports complex.
The AHUA is an umbrella adapter that mounts on top of a lightstand and swivels to angle the umbrella and the light to the right angle. It includes two separate spigots that are threaded, one is the male with 1/4-20 and 3/16-20 threaded posts and the other is the female opposite.
Once you screw the threaded 1/4-20 post into the Lumedyne Head it can be quickly and securely mounted to the lightstand at any angle.
Use the ANEC when you want to make your own reflector or light modifier. This has the right size neck to fit the Lumedyne Heads and other brands too. It even has the notches to guide between the normal and wide angle flashtube positions.
The rear flange portion has four mounting holes to allow you to create a reflector from nearly any surface.
This adapter connects Bowens™ S Mount style reflectors and accessories to the front of the Extra Small Flash Heads. The Signature Heads can also be adapted to use this mount by getting a new face plate.
It has a lock to hold the reflector in place and a 1/4-20 mount for the lightstand so that there is no added stress to the Flash Head regardless of the size of the light modifier used.
The APPH uses the d-rings on the Power Packs to suspend the system off the ground onto the lightstand. While this is very convenient for moving around with the gear, it's also important to keep the weight low on the lightstand rather than to need additional sand bags or ballast.
The APPH can work with all generations and styles of Lumedyne Power Packs. By hanging the system it makes Battery changes easy as well.
The AR12 is a 12 inch Beautydish reflector that has a center deflector that blocks the light coming directly from the flashtube. That creates a softer looking image without the normal specularity of a small flash.
In addition to being 12 inches across the front and thus more than four times bigger than the normal reflector, it also includes a cloth diffuser for an even softer look.
Lastly, a grid is included that snaps into the front of the reflector and limits the light output to less than 50 degrees.
The AR5K is the normal size as we have used for all of these years which is five inches across. This reflector is black on the outside with a shiny silver finish inside. The kit includes a grid to keep the angle limited to about 40 degrees. A simple plastic diffuser cover is also included.
The small ARSG Snoot fits over the Lumedyne flashtubes where the reflector normally mounts and tightens into place like any other reflector. It has a narrow opening for the light to escape at the open end. In addition to this limited field of view, the beam of light can be further limited and controlled with the small grid that fits the end of the snoot.
The ARST is the normal two position Reflector that we include with most all of our Flash Heads when new. It has a hammer dimple finish on a parabolic shape that is award winning in its design in relationship to the flashtube. When it is sitting in the forward position it is normal coverage and when it drops back into the two notches, it broadcasts a wider angle.
