Barcelona „seems to be clearly above everything existing on the market“ PRAXIS | 05 FASCINATING TECHNOLOGY MB500: The compact monolight with 500 Ws flash power MB 500 It is completely independent of the mains voltage and powered by a Li-Ion battery, which allows 400 flashes full power at 500 Ws. Practical: No power cable needed Mobile: Integrated Li-ion battery with high capacity combined with low weight Persistant: Approx. 400 flashes at full power, Approx. 1600 flashes at 125 J Fast: Less than 2.5 seconds recharging to full power, 5 flashes per second at minimum power. Very short flash duration of 1/2500 sec. (t05) Multi-functional: Xenon Flash, LED Flash, Xenon + LED Flash Innovative: Extremely short flash time duration and implemented bidirectional radio control Compatibility: Broad range of accesoires available, some Bowens and Hensel reflectors can be attached MB500 | 07 work will never gonna be the same. MB500 TECHNICAL DETAILS Innovative LED array For the Pilot light an LED array is used, which delivers an equivalent light output of approx. 100 watts. LEDs have an almost unlimited life cycle and can be dimmed without modification of the color temperature. The LED array features its own cooling element, that permits long operational hours without overheating. Additionally a temperature dependent fan is implemented, which cools the complete unit this guarantees a long uninterrupted time of use. Rugged base, safe protection The housing base of the MB500 represents an extrusion profile. It holds its components safely, that results into an extreme rugged system. An elongated hole under the housing enables to fix flash umbrellas and leads them safely over the complete length. Furthermore the umbrellas are clamped with a secured screw, so clamping will not damage the umbrella stick. Umbrellas can be used up to 10 mm stick diameter. The standard equipment includes a glass dome in various coatings. It provides an excellent protection and enables modification of the color temperature. The main switch of the monolight is equipped with a high quality twist device, that is protected by an additional cover. Therewith it avoids an unintentionally switching-on. That attribute is particularly important in case of transportation, because a switched on device must not be transported. Constant light distribution High performance by short recharging time Bidirectional radio controllable The MB500 operates with a flash tube in omega form. In comparison to a U-formed tube, it provides a better light and an extreme constant light distribution. The flash tube is pluggable and exchangeable by the user. The flash triggering can be done by synch cable, by slave, by IR-flash or by radio remote control. The synchronous voltage is 5 V. Therewith a safely handling with all established modern cameras, is assured. Furthermore by switched on FC (flash check) function, the modeling light will be switched off after flashing, and only after the complete charging of the capacitors, automatically switched on again. Therefore in dark studios a flash trigger control is easy. The MB500 can be charged using a charging socket with a thread to secure operation. The charging of the battery up to an 80 % capacity will be done in about 2.5 hours. Because of the screw thread a fall of the charging plug is avoided. The MB500 is featured with a bidirectional radio controlled module. This module operates together with the Priolite remote control, which can be attached to the Hot Shoe of the camera. Nearly all functions of the flash device can be controlled on telecommand. The radio control displays the power setting of the device and its flash readiness. By organizing in 4 teams, each with 9 devices, in total 36 devices can be individually controlled. The system operates in a frequency range of 2.4 GHz, which is world wide approved for these applications. Various flash modes Big display, easy to read The MB500 features 3 flash options: Xenon flash, LED flash and a combination of Xenon with LED flash. The usual Xenon flash light can be regulated within 5 f-stops between 5 and 10 factor in 1/10 increments of an f-stop. The LED array can be used as a modeling light as well as a flash light. The flash light features an extreme short flash duration about approx. 1/15,000 seconds. Using the combi mode, first the Xenon flash is activated and then after a selectable delay time the LED flash will be ignited. Both, the strength of the Xenon flash and the strength of the LED flash can be set up. Additionally the choice of the time delay between the flashes is possible. These options are opening a fullness of new possibilities, which enables the photographer an additional scope for creative composition and unconventional solutions. The MB500 features a multiline LCD display, where functions of the device can transparently and easily be set up and controlled. The display can be turned upside down with the flip button, so that in case of hanging the device on ceiling tracks the display can be read correctly. The MB500 features a charging time about less than 3 seconds to full power. It can deliver up to 5 flashes per second with 37 Ws each – outstanding data for a battery device. The battery allows 400 flashes at full power and 6,400 flashes at minimum power. Power dumping is performed using internal resistors (APD System). Compatible accessories kit The Priolite adapter system is compatible to Bowens S-type Bayonets as well. A lot of Hensel reflectors can be fixed with this clamp mechanism too. What is in the box? The flash unit comes with a synch cable, a battery charging unit, the flash tube, the LED array and the glass dome. Made in Germany The MB500 was designed, developed and manufactured in Germany under a strict quality control. Priolite is warranting a 2 years guarantee, with exception of the flash tube and the modeling light. MB500 | 09 „I´m very deeply impressed“ Darius Ramazani Photographer .

M500 TECHNICAL DETAILS Extremely fast flash recycling time Rugged base, safe protection Bidirectional radio controllable The M500 provides extremely short flash recycling time. Within less than one second it recharges to full power and can provide up to 6 flashes per second at minimum power. A powerful temperature control fan, avoids an overheating of the device. By reducing the flash power, excessive energy is dumped by a resistor (APD System). The housing base of the MB500 represents an extrusion profile. It holds its components safely, that results into an extreme rugged system. An elongated hole under the housing enables to fix flash umbrellas and leads them safely over the complete length. Furthermore the umbrellas are clamped with a secured screw, so clamping will not damage the umbrella stick. Umbrellas can be used up to 10 mm stick diameter.

By organizing in 4 teams, each with 9 devices, in total 36 devices can be individually controlled. The system operates in a frequency range of 2.4 GHz, which is world wide approved for these applications. M 500 For setting up the flash power, the device features a 3-digit LED display, which additionally simplifies the set up of further parameters. The important signal “ready”,is displayed by the illumination of the test button and additionally, by the illumination of the glass dome placed on the top side of the device. Thereby the readiness of the flash is seen very easily even from a far distance. PFC – sophisticated high perfomance power supply The integrated high performance power supply provides constant current during loading the capacitors. The main fuse of the building is protected this way, so that many flash units can be used within one power circuit without blowing the fuse. The technical term for this module is called Power Factor Correction (PFC). The standard equipment includes a glass dome in various coatings. It provides an excellent protection and enables modification of the color temperature. Constant light distribution The MB500 operates with a flash tube in omega form.

JOACHIM RENSCHKE Managing Director Phone +49 931 2600900 Fax +49 1803 5518 27155 [email protected] www.priolite.com Joachim Renschke, Cert. Ing. Studied electronics at the Technical University of Berlin and was then active in development management for integrated circuitry for global companies. During this time he shared responsibility in the development of the first automotive ABS systems as well as in the development of ISDN in the telecommunications branch. In 1990 he became part of the management team at Hensel Studiotechnik in Würzburg and later acquired shares in the company. Within the scope of his many years of activity as managing director, many innovative products were developed such as the battery-operated Porty System, the TRIA studio generators as well as compact strobe equipment for the Expert Pro Series. At the end of 2008 Mr. Renschke withdrew from Hensel Studiotechnik. Since 2009 Mr. Renschke has been busy in the development of a new premium brand: Priolite. Initial products such as the MB500 and M500 show convincingly the innovative force of the Priolite Company based in Würzburg. An extremely compact studio strobe unit with Li-ion batteries will be presented at the Photokina 2010, supplemented by an extremely fast compact unit for worldwide use. Both units are supplemented by a comprehensive line of accessories and are capable of RF remote control. Some of the Bowens and Hensel accessories can also be used. Priolite’s objective is to use state-of-the-art technologies such as LED’s and Li-ion batteries to create convenient lighting systems for today’s demands in the field of professional photography combined with a unique bidirectional remote control. All this is packed into a sturdy metal housing with precision cast parts to prevent failure even under rough treatment. All equipment is produced in Germany and subject to intensive quality control. This makes it possible to provide a 2-year guarantee on all parts with the exception of the flash tube and modeling light. Priolite’s line of products is being expanded continuously. For this reason a battery-operated mobile generator for extremely short charging times will be introduced in the Spring of 2011. In parallel to this the line of accessories will continue to be supplemented and expanded. Priolite products are available worldwide. We are presently establishing a network of distributors and service stations. We wish all photographers a great deal of enjoyment with our products, good lighting and many creative ideas. | 31 JUNG-2.com 2010 Professionals only www.priolite.com
