Review Summary
THE HOVERING, CONTRAST REDUCING SUN-SWATTER
The SUN-SWATTERs create a shadow that moves synchronously with the actors and models. The unique SUN-SWATTERs can be recognised immediately because they look like a giant fly swatter hovering over the models. The contrast reducing SCREENs are held by a stable "U" -shaped aluminium frame, which is attached to a holding rod (BOOM-STICK) that can be adjusted in height. This construction provides mobility and a space-creating distance to the object. In mobile applications, the system is carried only by one assistant. A tripod is sufficient for static applications. The smart construction of the SUN-SWATTER is a further development of the SUNBOUNCE CLASSIC 3-D frame. The 3-dimensional "U" ensures that at least one side of the frame does not throw rod shadow.
The SUN-SWATTER is available in three sizes from 90 x 125 cm to 180 x 245 cm (3' x 4' to 6' x 8'):
MINI: for portraits
PRO: for full body images
BIG: for groups
SPOT: for portraits
Reduces the contrast more than TRANSLUSCENT -1/3rd and makes wonderfully soft light. Good in combination with reflectors.
If sunlight or the light from a spotlight has to be subdued e.g. because it is too hard, this unique diffuser fabric could be your salvation. Similar materials - but with unsightly seams (shadow lines) - have been used successfully for many decades in Hollywood. They are called SILKS there and used to actually be made of silk.
SUNBOUNCE offers this SUNBOUNCE EXCLUSIVE diffuser fabric in a single piece up to 500 cm wide and 50 meters long. This means that transmitted light in this area does not cast a shadow over 250 meter square. The quality of the fabric complies with DIN 4102 B1 and is difficult to ignite.
