Pop Up Flash + Lightscoop

When light comes directly from the built-in flash, people near the camera receive more light than those farther away. Your camera tells its built-in flash to stop putting out light once its automatic meter “sees” a properly exposed subject.That’s why flash pictures usually produce scenes where the backgrounds are so dark — unlike anything your eye sees.




With Professor Kobré’s Lightscoop in place, the light leaves the flash, bounces off the Lightscoop’s reflective surface upward or outward to a ceiling or wall — spreading out even farther before it reaches the scene below.

So even though your subjects may be at different distances from the lens and flash, they are approximately equidistant from the broad surface of the ceiling. So the  flash bounced off a ceiling will cover a large enough area to evenly light most people in a room.

 

Lightscoop DiagramProfessor Kobré’s Lightscoop™ changes the
direction of the tiny light coming from the pop
up flash in your Nikon, Olympus, Pentax, Fuji, or Canon camera.


  • The bounced light creates an effectively larger
    light source.
  • The larger source sends out light from a more
    natural direction.
  • The auto function of your pop up flash continues
    to operate normally, so the flash properly
    exposes the picture.
    IMPORTANT: Set up your camera as directed.
