The Solo Background Support features a unique pivoting cross bar which makes raising the background on the supports a much easier and safer operation. Rather than step by step adjustments at each end of the support system, the new pivoting connectors allow for much greater steps without making the whole structure unstable and unmanageable. The support is available as a 3m wide or 4m wide solution. The 4m version can also be extended to 6m to accommodate wider textile backgrounds with the optional 2m extension (1143). Each kit comes in a handy carry case which fits easily into a car.

The Solo Background Support consists of 2x Solo Support Brackets, 2x stands and 1x crossbar.

The Solo Support Bracket is also available on it's own  in a set of two for use with most industry standard background support systems.

D-Lite RX ONE

In this film Mark and Chris Whittle from Elinchrom take an in depth look at the new D-Lite RX one.

Delivering approximately twice the power of speedlights, the D-Lite RX ONE is a small but robust compact flash from Elinchrom.

The versatility of the Elinchrom system remains in its accessory range: Whereas it is difficult to change the hard nature that characterizes speedlights, Elinchrom has some of the best accessories allowing the photographer to change the nature of their light.

Used outside the studio, the D-Lite RX ONE is the perfect creative companion to an existing Speedlight system, making use of the in-built intelligent slave Cell to offer perfect flash synchronisation.
