    Hi @chrismiles

    I too have been wishing for snoots to show up for the hybrid flash, and yours looks fantastic!

    I like that it doubles up as beam restrictor, whilst still making for an optical snoot, since you’re re-using the OS-1 mini flash snoot at the front.

    As chatted, Backscatter’s own version is coming (they’re testing a proto now) but it will likely not offer snooted beams as narrows as what you can achieve with yours.

    So, please count me in, I’d love a pair 😀

    And if you’re making a shipment to Australia for me, let’s see if there are any other Australian TUC members that also would like one? I could then dispatch a few locally.

    Cheers!

    PS: the hermit crab is a cracker shot, love the moody lighting.

    PS2: I am guessing you selfied-yourself using an Insta360 X4 camera? (last image)
