ExpoImaging just released a grid for hot shoe flashes. The coolest looking grid I've seen so far icon_smile.gif
I wonder about the easy of use though. Gotta try one :)

    Yeah, does look cool. Should be easy enough. The different sizes helps control.

    I have one made by Honl:

    It's very effective.

    These are a handy addition to flash gear, no doubt.

    I love my flashbender so I am thinking this will be a nice accessory also. I wonder if it comes with the small flashbender shown in this picture?

    Got mine :). Love it. It's more expensive than even Honl grids, but for the price you get three angles. So, I think it's acceptable.

    Grids on lights cut spread/spill of light, so only a controlled area of what the light is pointed to is lit. The size of that lit area is determined by the size of the individual grid openings. Some light intensity is lost in the process.

    Nice! I am using the Honl System which can be combined well with other velcro modifiers out there like gels etc. Rogue seems just a wee bit expensive for my likes.
