Blog #strobe lights

An introduction to the Bowens Esprit, a workhorse that just keeps on galloping! Having said that, the only Bowens strobe light I've had fail me so far is the Gemini GM250R, which ironically is newer. Digital strobes have more tech to go wrong, and often times, it's tech that isn't needed for every day non-specialist use.

I'd taken some of my favourite and best loved photos on these lights, but they had a bit of a reputation within the industry for overheating. I rarely had issues, and I found that if they did, it was typically just one in a batch of three, yet their pay-off for the price was worth it.
