Flashes

LumoPro LP120

In 2009, LumoPro announced their first venture into an off-camera shoe-mount flash unit, the LP120 Quad-Sync Manual Flash.[2]

Developed in conjunction with the Strobist community, this flash is aimed at professional and amateur photographers alike. It offered 4 ways of synchronization with the camera through its PC port, miniphone port, optical slave sensor and hotshoe (PC/Miniphone cord included.) With its 270-degree swivel and 180-degree tilt, it allows to bounce the light off any wall, ceiling, and most light modifiers.The manual zoom function allows to focus the beam regardless of the lens focal length. The wide-angle adapter helps disperse the beam to a greater degree.

LumoPro LP160

In 2010, LumoPro announced their second generation off-camera shoe-mount flash unit, the LP160 Quad-Sync Manual Flash.[3]

The LP160 is the successor to the LP120. Like its predecessor, it offers 4 ways of synchronization. It has a more power flash (GN 140 in comparison with GN 100 for the LP120), 7 power variations (full to 1/64), faster recycle time (4 sec instead of 6.5 sec), and a metal hotshoe foot. Also has an additional digital slave mode to ignore TTL pre-flashes.[4]

LumoPro LP180

In 2013, LumoPro announced their third generation off-camera shoe-mount flash unit, the LP180 Quad-Sync Manual Flash.[5]

The LP180 carried the feature sets of both the LP120 and LP160 including Quad-Sync, metal hotshoe foot, optical slave, and digital slave that ignores TTL pre-flashes. In addition the legacy features, the LP180 introduces a new sliding lock hotshoe, a 1/4-20 mounting thread on the side of the head for on-axis mounting for umbrellas, and an audible feedback recycle tone.[6]
