We’ve been finding a lot of videos featuring our gear this month and have decided to highlight a few users as a thank you for sharing the word! A Tenba fan takes us inside (literally) his new Roadie II. Ric Kasnoff has a play date with the Atlas FLT. Byron Atkinson uses the Profoto ProDaylight 800 Air and a Magnum Reflector on his most recent shoot. If you’re craving a short film on a close up of an eyeball, look no further compliments of John Lofton IV! For something a little unrelated and just because we love light meters, warm up those vocals to sing to Sekonic. Happy Birthday!
