Zoom Action with Elinchrom!
Elinchrom recently announced a new line of flash heads – the Zoom Action, Zoom Pro and Zoom Pro HD – for their main power packs.
Having already produced zoom or focusable flash heads back in the sixties, Elinchrom decided to use today’s technology to recreate this useful flash head for introduction to whole new generation. The new Zoom Action head offers unique super short flash duration with a user replaceable single, twin electrode flash tube to ensure even light distribution.
These heads offer a microprocessor-controlled, low-noise fan cooling system, a new included transparent glass dome & a new user-replaceable plug-in flash tube. It also features a zoom function for the modelling lamp and flash tube to obtain individual results when used with reflectors or a wide and even light distribution for Rotalux softboxes. And the zoom function is accessible from both sides of the head housing – which is rock-solid and lightweight with a large rubberised handle.
