Applications

Pin sharp pictures, special effects, flexible use in the fields of video, film and photography: this is the profile of the HELIO-STROB ClearCut. High flash power provides optimum illumination, a modern microprocessor control stability of flash brightness and a precise triggering of the connected cameras. Both features belong to the high level standard of the ClearCut stroboscope and together with the extreme short flash duration guarantee clear-cut exposures. And besides that: the implemented techniques care for delicate objects and therefore combines maximum brightness with minimum release of heat.

The complete equipment is designed for easy operation and translates the need of daily application into action and into results you can rely on.The ClearCut interface offers the possibility to synchronise multiple units as a basis for the best possible illumination. Together with a variety of additional features it is suitable for the whole range of requirements on site. The wide range of applications is completed by one or two hand-held lamps per control unit and diverse reflectors.
