The Wafer is probably the most innovative light bank on the market, producing a beautiful quality of light and offering a degree of control unmatched by similar products. Its range of shapes and sizes is almost as big as its range of accessories, making the Wafer suitable for a variety of work in all disciplines.
Wafer light banks produce a crisp, smooth quality of light while their narrow profile and silver/white interiors with two interchangeable graduated inner baffles deliver unparalleled flexibility and control. The Wafer design is supplied with two internal Mylar baffles or screens, each printed with a special pattern to ensure the light distribution on the front cloth is absolutely even over its entire surface. These baffles also assist in controlling the colour temperature: one is white and gives a slightly warm tone, the other is blue for more neutral tones.
The front cloth of the Wafer is recessed to help control light spill. The resulting internal edge has a hook-and-loop lining, allowing an accessory honeycomb to be fitted to the front for additional directional control.
The Wafer is supplied in a stowage pouch for convenient portability
Wafers are available as rectangles, which are by far the most popular and versatile. Hexagonal Wafers are especially good for portraiture whilst the Strips, which produce much sharper cut-off, are popular with fashion photographers.
All Strip Wafers are supplied with one full-width front diffuser and one half-width front diffuser. The half-width diffuser provides an even sharper cut-off and a harder edge to the shadows.
