Hensel Certo 200 Compact Flashes Basic Kit, 110V

While the Hensel Certo 200 and Certo 400 are designed with the needs of ambitious amateurs, semi-professional users, and emerging professionals in mind, these compact flashes also appeal to budget-conscious professionals due to their exceptional performance and quality. These compact flashes from Hensel's Certo series stand out for their superior value for money and are offered as part of specially priced kits, complete with light shapers, stands, a radio transmitter, and a transport bag.

The compact and lightweight Certo flashes deliver short flash durations of up to 1/3,400's and quick flash recycling of 0.4-1.1's. They also offer a setting range that covers 6 or 7 f-stops in precise 1/10 steps. Their robust construction, intuitive interface, and direct access to all major functions make them user-friendly. The integrated 16-channel radio sync allows for wireless operation, and the EH mount system from Hensel provides the fastest and easiest method in the industry for attaching a light modifier.

Safety is a priority with Hensel, and the Certo compact flashes feature safety glass to protect both users and the technology from potential damage. The flash tube and safety glass dome are mounted together on a plug base for quick and easy replacements. Active cooling ensures safe, continuous operation and allows the bright 150W halogen lamp (GX 6.35) to be used as a modeling light. The power display can be switched from relative f-stops to watt seconds.

The Certo compact flash units from Hensel are a cost-effective way to access one of the industry's most versatile lighting systems. The wide selection of light formers expands creative possibilities and allows the system to grow with the user's needs. Like all Hensel strobes, the Certo compact flashes offer long-term service safety, a benefit only a well-known brand can provide.

The kit also includes an Umbrella Flood Reflector, which is ideal for use with umbrellas (except for Softstar) to reduce stray light and ensure optimal lighting conditions. This reflector provides a wide-angle and evenly distributed light, making it perfect for illuminating large backgrounds. It can also be used without umbrellas for direct (hard) light or indirect lighting over walls and ceilings.

The kit also comes with an Economy Umbrella, a Certo Lightstand, a Cactus Flash Transceiver V5, and a Transport Case. The Certo Lightstand is an aluminum stand designed specifically for Certo compact flashes, with a height adjustable from 89 to 205 cm. The Cactus Flash Transceiver V5 is a powerful and reliable accessory that can serve as either a wireless flash transmitter or wireless flash receiver. The Certo Transport Case is designed to hold up to three Certo heads along with light stands and modifiers.
