Studio flash HS Freeze 6

The portable studio flash HS Freeze 6, which is a predecessor of the HS Freeze 6s, solves a well-known problem of conventional flash units or powerful mains-dependent studio flash units with battery cases - the lack of flexibility and performance in outdoor use. That is why this type of mobile studio flash is also affectionately called Porty Flash.

The various well-known flash units and studio flashes each have very specific advantages and disadvantages. The camera-integrated flashes are suitable for fast photography, but of course only have a short range and cannot be panned. Mains-independent plug-on or system flashes with or without TTL offer various creative flash modes with rotating and tilting reflector heads and can also be put together to form master-slave groups. However, these models do not bring the required flash power to the subject, especially for outdoor shoots or complex studio settings. Strong studio flashes, on the other hand, require full mains voltage or are attached to heavy and unwieldy battery cases.

The portable professional studio flash HS Freeze 6 overcomes these old limits and gives you greater flexibility and more creative freedom in your photo projects. Whether in the studio or in nature. Both the battery performance and the flash performance enable uncomplicated outdoor shootings without generators and cables. The world is your studio - with the mobile rechargeable studio flash from Rollei.

Thanks to the rechargeable battery, you can also use it for outdoor shootings at full power

The Rollei HS Freeze 6 studio flash not only flashes up to 500 times per full battery charge when used in the studio; Even in the open air, the enormous power of 600 Ws is already available to you after a flash charging time of approx. 1.9 seconds(recycling time) fully available again. This enormous gain in mobility and spontaneity allows you to realize location ideas that previously seemed simply impossible. The stable aluminum housing is protected against spray water, dust and sand in accordance with test class IP33*, the standardized Bowens connection accepts not only the extensive Rollei professional accessories but also other compatible equipment. The flash unit with a guide number of 80 can be easily transported to the place of use with the replaceable battery in the carrying case supplied.

The receiver integrated in the studio flash has a range of 300 meters and can be controlled via the optionally available transmitter.

Settings such as modes or flash output can be controlled and even saved using a free app. Suitable transmitters for Sony, Nikon and Canon cameras as well as a universal signal generator without HSS function are available as accessories. Alternatively, an infrared sensor can also be used. The powerful lithium-ion battery (14.8V/6 Ah) is of course also available separately, with the optional mains cable you can connect your Rollei Profi Blitz HS Freeze 6 to the 220V mains via an AC adapter for the battery tray..

An important feature of the HS Freeze 6: the Easy Cap function

With the "Easy Cap" function of Rollei HS Freeze 6 this is now possible quickly and easily with a simple setup. It does this by automatically switching the lighting setup between two or more shots, allowing for easier, automated mask creation on the final image.

Freeze, HSS, 1st or 2nd closure: the choice is yours

Up to 6 groups and 15 channels are available for the synchronized triggering of several HS Freeze 6, the intensity can be precisely adjusted in 9 f-stops to your ideas. Unique moments that last only fractions of a second can be safely captured with the professional studio flash. High Speed Synch (HSS) is possible up to 1/8,000 second, in freeze mode at 1/19,000 second you won't miss even the smallest drop of water, the single speck of dust or color pigment. Synchronization takes place either on the first or second shutter, in addition to the TTL option you can also specify all parameters manually. The 20W LED modeling light enables the flash unit to be positioned precisely, even with difficult subjects. With the extensive range of accessories put together from a professional point of view, the Rollei professional flash unit HS Freeze 6 gives you a new freedom of creative image design, completely independent of the chosen location.

Note: TTL and HSS modes cannot be used together.

Impressively constant color temperature

Photographers not only attach particular importance to high flash output and a color temperature that is as neutral as possible, but also to the continuous availability of these properties across the entire range of adjustable aperture levels. The portable studio flash HS Freeze 6 supplies daylight of the standard illuminant D55(5,500K) – ideal for illuminating even extensive settings in a pleasantly color-neutral way. The unique selling point of the mobile professional flash is also fed by the astonishing continuity of this power output, almost completely independent of the f-stop and duration of use. The color temperature only varies in the range of 150k over a spectrum of 9 f-stops. An enormous advantage, since you no longer have to worry about unwanted color distortions, even with complex flash shoots.
