ABSTRACT:
The I-snoot includes a circular casing having side walls extending forwardly from the front wall. A hand grip is adjustably secured to a flat plate iris diaphragm inside the casing allowing a full range of light to pass through the light control blade diaphragm. The I-snoot assembly has a second casing located on the opposite end of the circular casing, having side walls extending forwardly from the back wall. The back wall casing has a metal lip that protrudes outwardly from the assembly which allows attachment to standard lighting units. A transition zone interconnecting the light control blades is located inside each outer casing. The assembly also contains a lighting accessory adaptor on the front wall casing to use various photographic accessories, such as barn doors, gels, and various screens to control lighting intensities and variations.
