The Photogenic PowerLight DR-UV Monolight Kitoffers speed, power and control, a wide choice of accessories and intuitive operation backed by impressive specs at a very reasonable price.

What good is a light if it keeps you in the dark? The 1250DRC keeps you fully informed of your power levels via its large highly readable digital display. Power settings are adjustable in 1/10 or ½ stop increments across 6 stops. The bright 250W modeling light can be set to Proportional to let you previsualize your final shot when using multiple lights. Other settings include Full On, OFF and manual control of the modeling light output.

The PL1250DRC recycles to full power in a lightning-fast 1.5 seconds with short flash durations that help you stop every gesture, an attribute which is extremely valuable when working with kinetic subjects like dancers or athletes. The color corrected flash tube prevents blue hues from creeping into the color balance on subjects like a bride in her wedding dress. The tube also insures a flattering skin tone rendition.

Convenience features include a test button, optical slave and integral handle.

The PL1250DRC comes with a 7.5" reflector and is compatible with a wide range of optional accessories including grids, snoots, parabolic reflectors, softboxes and umbrellas.

The kit comes with a 16-channel remote transmitter which is compatible with your Canon 6D Mark II. Please note that this is a manual flash kit, and therefore does not have TTL functionality.

Q: 4. What is the T1 and T5 flash duration?

Q: 6. Whether the flash duration at max. power and min. power indicates t0.5 and t0.1?

A: As per the manufacturer, the minimum and maximum flash duration for this monolight is based on t0.5.

Q: 7. How do i maintain the capacitor in a power light?

A: No maintenance needed! Each time you power down the light the capacitor unloads by popping the tube. The Powerlights are maintenance free, just use them, and use them, and use them.

Q: 8. will this flash capture motion at 1/1600 of a second ?

A: This BH #PH2500DRUV shortest flash duration is 1/770th of a second.

Q: 9. Can flash duration be adjusted?

A: Not directly, no. But for most flash units the brightness of the flash over a set amount of time doesn't change. What does change is the length of the light burst. So shooting at full power uses the longest burst, and at half power it will be half as long. I don't have the manuals in front of me (but they are online at the Photogenic website). I'm pretty sure they give the length of flash durations at various settings.... or at least an estimate.

Q: 10. I have this light in my studio but i need to take it on a remote shoot with no electricity available. Should i get a little gas generator for power or is there a battery power supply i can buy? I have a large budget.
