The QMM1 is a new macro twin flash mount system designed to give flash support that is flexible, compact and easy-to-use.
It can be either hand-held or mounted on a tripod. The QMM1 has a sturdy base plate machined from aircraft grade aluminum that can hold up to years of use. It has a 1/4-20 camera screw in the base plate that can mount almost any digital SLR camera.
Permanently attached to the base plate of the QMM1 are two fully articulating arms made from high-quality ultra lightweight flex-conduit. These arms allow flash units to be positioned at almost any angle around the subject for a wide variety of lighting effects.
Ball joints supporting the flash units allow for even greater control of the flash position and angle. In addition, there is one 1/4-20 treaded mount point on either side of the QMM1 to attach other accessories.
Unlike a ring flash that is fixed on the camera lens yielding flat lighting, the QMM1's ability to move the flash units creates directional light that can add greater depth, definition and attention to macro subjects. This gives the photographer greater control to create the image they want.
The QMM1 is designed and assembled in the USA.
