takedown. Allows for 140 degrees of light spread.

INSTRUCTIONS

To mount the standard Halo™ light modifier onto your light, open the hook and loop tape opening and

partially open the frame. Place the light inside of the opening of the Halo™ and insert the umbrella

shaft through the light’s umbrella receptacle. Position the light anywhere along the umbrella shaft to

create different lighting effects (see next paragraph for examples). Tighten the setscrew against the

shaft. Do not over tighten! This could damage the umbrella shaft. After the Halo™ is securely in

place, carefully stretch the black back section over the end of the umbrella shaft. Over stretching may

cause damage to the fabric or frame. Secure the light modifier by putting the tip of the umbrella shaft

into the metal cup. Close the lower hook and loop tape opening around the light stand.

Directional lighting examples: For direct diffusion, position the light facing

the white diffuser panel. The light will have a bright center with a softer

edge. The distance the light is to the diffuser panel will govern the

brightness of the center of the light. Caution: Do not over tighten!

Overtightening may cause damage to the umbrella shaft. See the first part of

the above paragraph to explain placement of the light along the umbrella

shaft for direct diffusion of light.

Position the elastic collar on the back of the Halo™Mono around the front

portion of he mono light. With the mono light standard reflector in place, the

flash tube and reflector should be inside the Halo™and the controls should

be outside. Finish mounting the Halo™Mono by closing the hook and loop

tape opening creating a snug fit.

For indirect diffusion of light, purchase an optional Reflector Plate (#2875). The anodized aluminum

plate is mounted on the center shaft just in front of the flash tube. This allows the light to bounce off the

reflector plate, into the silver metalized material and then out through the diffuser panel. The Reflector

Plate can be adjusted along the center shaft closer or further from the flash tube to control the amount of

light that is reflected off the silver interior of the Halo™.

Because of their parabolic shape, Halo™light modifiers are measured diagonally.

Dealer.
