wow!

Well what an incredible few weeks it’s been. First the rush of presales, then getting all the shipments to our distribution centres cleared through several customs authorities and now being fully up and running on sale.

Photos are rolling into the flickr group and the discussion forum is flowing, keep it coming ! We’ve got another video on the way for release in the next few weeks and are working hard on the fitting kit that many of you are asking for. As I’ve mentioned to a few people who’ve emailed us, the fitting kit will fit a full range of cameras, lenses and flashes and be affordable; consequently it is a complex development project but we’re working hard on it.

Take a look at the orbis™ in use at David Hobby’s recent London Strobist seminars here.

The orbis™ was designed to be handheld and work with a variety of flash/strobes, but one user has decided that he wanted to modify his orbis™. This sort of thing is great, as it not only helps other owners but gives us invaluable ideas to improve the orbis™. JM

the orbis™ is shipping!

GREAT NEWS ! After a two week presales period, while we shipped orbis™ ring flashes from our manufacturers to our warehouses in the US, UK and NZ, we will be shipping all orders in the next 48 hours. We’ll soon be out of presales, which is really exciting.

So that you can share your orbis™ photos, a flickr group has been set up here. Look out for details on how to tag your photos to enter our user competitions, coming soon. JM
