Tips and Recommendations
Although the EF-mount optical snoot can be used with any Canon EF or EF-S mount lenses, to get the best results, we recommend using fast prime lenses with a maximum aperture of about f/2.8 or wider (such as 50mm or 85mm f/1.8). Using lenses with smaller max. apertures will result in dimmer projections.
The PixaPro Bowens Mount Optical Snoot Photography is the ideal tool for any photographer or cinematographer who uses high-powered LED lighting, and who would like to get creative with their lighting. Perfect for a range of disciplines, such as fashion, portrait, editorial and product photographers.
