I have been asked many time for a run down on the Alien Bees Ring Flash – Well I found a better source for the info on Studiolighting.net.

The above Podcast is well worth the listen for the interview with Paul Buff of Alien Bees.

I have one of these and I am very sad to say i have not devoted the time to even play with it as of yet so my first hand experience will come at a later date. From the word on the net many like the ability to be able to use this unit and Alien Bees bringing this to us on a more budget oriented basis is a great help to us more budget aware photographers.

The ABR800 AlienBees Ringflash

The ABR800 is a highly evolved, self-contained ringflash system designed to meet the challenges of the new-generation creative professional photographer. It is extremely compact, lightweight and easy to use with professional or semi-professional cameras with lenses up to 4 inches in diameter. A studio ringflash is an invaluable and instantly favorite tool of the professional photographer due to its ability to produce essentially shadow-free lighting, revealing unique catchlights in the eyes of subjects when used with fashion and portrait work.
