    Regulatory and Safety Information

    Our products for photography and videography are designed to meet the highest standards of quality and performance. However, with increasing capabilities comes the potential for safety risks, especially if the products are used in unintended ways. While our products are available for purchase by anyone, they are primarily designed for professional users who possess the experience and knowledge necessary for the safe operation of powerful lights and flashes.

    Important User Guidance Regarding Safety

    Before using any of our products, it is essential to thoroughly read the User Guide and the Quick Start and Safety Guide, which are supplied with the product. These guides provide vital safety information and important regulatory details to ensure the safe operation of the equipment. The Quick Start and Safety Guide is included in print with most products and is also available in multiple languages. You can find digital copies of these guides in the "User Guides and Quick Start and Safety Guides" section linked below.

    General Safety Considerations

    This section highlights general safety considerations. Please refer to the User Guide and Quick Start and Safety Guide (QSSG) provided with your product for detailed and product-specific warnings and safety instructions.

    • Optical Radiation: Possibly hazardous optical radiation can be emitted from lights and flashes. Do not stare at operating lamps as they may be harmful to the eyes.
    • Avoid Unexpected Flashes: Do not trigger a flash or light towards unexpected subjects, individuals operating heavy equipment, or anyone engaged in activities where an unexpected flash could cause injury or harm. Flashes and lights can also be triggered or operated remotely from a long distance, so always ensure proper precautions are in place.

    Intended Users
    Our products are not intended for use by individuals (including children) with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities, or by those lacking experience and knowledge, unless they are supervised or instructed on proper usage by a responsible person.
