NEW Elinchrom Dlite IT kit

News about cameras, printers, etc.gulfcolor writes:  

 The Elinchrom D-Lite-4 IT 400Ws 2-Light To Go Set (90-260VAC) expands the possibilities of a lightweight, portable strobe kit. With two 400Ws D-Lite IT (Intelligent Trigger) portable flashes, two 9' (2.75 m) light stands, a Skyport ECO transmitter for wireless triggering of your strobes, two 25 x 25" (63.5 x 63.5 cm) softboxes, and a wide-angle 90° reflector, this kit covers a lot of ground in a compact package. Plus, you get a sync cord, a stand bag to protect your light stands, a user manual, DVD intro and guide, and a carrying case for storing and transporting the entire kit. 

 
These multi-voltage flash heads recognize and use any AC power source from 90-260VAC, the power is variable in 1/10 steps from 24 to 400Ws, and the cooling fan is controlled by a microprocessor that automatically keeps the temperature in the safety zone. This is an ideal kit for portraits, still life, product, architectural photography, and more. 
Built-In Skyport Triggering
The built-in Skyport Speed receiver provides wireless triggering of up to four groups and four channels. Included in the kit is a Skyport ECO Trigger, which allows you to choose from up to four frequencies (channels); no group features are supported with Skyport ECO trigger. Optional Standard Skyport Triggers can take advantage of the group features of the DLite IT. The Skyport ECO Trigger has two sync modes, standard sync mode (1/160 sec) or Speed (1/250 sec).
Eye-Cell Technology
When using D-Lite ITs in optical slave mode with cameras, or shoe-mount flashes with a pre-flash, users can program the number of pre-flashes or have the head automatically program itself--a great way of mixing lights.
Proportional Modeling Light Setup
Power adjustments are made in 1/10th stop increments. The modeling lamp can be controlled proportionately, set to minimum or maximum level, or switched off.
Power Steps
Output can be modified in 1/10 increments.
Thermally Controlled Fan Management
The cooling fan is controlled by a microprocessor and switches on automatically when the internal temperature increases.
New Stand Mount
The new, more robust stand mount also adds a universal umbrella mount, like all other Elinchrom heads--the mount can accept umbrellas with shafts of 8 or 9mm.

Contest on the web and our own.arabianEyeProduction writes:  

In collaboration with Nokia arabianEye has challenged four of our best commercial photographers to put the new Nokia N86 8MP mobile phone to the test. They will be swapping their professional cameras with these performance camera phones, and we will have them upload the best shots they’ve gotten on the broad theme of “Arabia” on the arabianEye blog.

The photographers who will be participating in the competition are Gerry O’Leary, Charney Magri, Siddharth Siva and Matilde Gattoni —  all award-winning and accomplished photographers who will then be judged by you, the visitors to our blog! The voting should be given based on technical skill, composition and creativity; become a judge, offering your critique of the best Arabian culture shots taken with the Nokia N86, and you’ll be entered to win a Nokia N86 alongside a photography class with the winning photographer!  It’s simple: judge to win, but don’t delay – there are only 4 phones to give away.

The arabianEye – Nokia photo competition begins on the 25th of February and will last for two weeks. Check out http://blog.arabianeyeproduction.com/ regularly as the photographers will upload 5 pictures each over the course of these two weeks, giving you more chances to share the winning comment and feedback!

Each week, arabianEye will be releasing a short video with 10 creative directors answering the same question on the advertising industry in the Gulf.

arabianEye produced “Straight Shooters” to build a sense of community amongst Dubai’s creative agencies by highlighting issues that affect the advertising industry and those who work with visual media. It’s a fun way to bring people together, open a debate, and address these challenges. They only have 30 seconds to answer…
