Lux Senior
A camera flash that features a reflector and a flash bulb-like light emitting part that is reminiscent of the 1960s photography style. Easy operation allows switching between auto flash mode (A mode) and manual flash mode (M mode). In M mode, the light control function (S1/S2) can be used. GN: 14 (at full flash/ISO100/m), 7 output levels (1/1 to 1/64).
When the light-emitting part and reflector are put away, it becomes a compact size that can be carried like a smartphone, making it a great companion for photography trips and outings. Equipped with a lithium battery, it can be used stably (150 times at full emission). Charging is done with the included USB-C cable.
Lux Junior
A retro and stylish camera flash reminiscent of the 1980s. With the same simple operation as Lux Senior, you can switch between auto and manual flash modes, and you can use the light control function (S1/S2) in M mode. GN: 12 (at full flash/ISO100/m) with 7 output levels (1/1 to 1/64).
The power supply uses AAA Ni-MH rechargeable batteries or alkaline batteries, so it is easy to prepare spares.
