A closer look at a bare bulb
The subject in this shot is a bare bulb flash tube for a Godox AD200/AD200Pro flash. The flash element is the central coiled tube that is contained within a glass sleeve.
Bare bulbs can be used with or without a reflector or diffuser to give either direct or diffused light that is very even. I use a bare bulb frequently, bounced of a white umbrella and mounted to an overhead boom to provide soft, even lighting across my studio table.
Focus stack (28 images). Shot with two off-camera strobes (Godox AD200Pro/XPro II L trigger). Flash A round head, modified with grid and fully extended snoot placed directly over subject. Flash B modified with MagMod MagSphere, placed behind 24 inch velum scrim. A black flag 18 x 24 inch placed in the center of scrim was used to create rim lighting effect on the exterior glass sleeve.
Shot for Macro Mondays - subject photographic equipment.
Flash tube size 75 mm (h) x 33mm (dia)
