Studio Flash Shops in Singapore

[IzPhotoWerkz]

Hi guys, anyone knows where I can find shops in Singapore that sells Studio Flashes eg Monoblock Flash etc. A second hand shop would also be helpful. Tried to contact one here in CS but they are currently out of stock for the Flash head that I need.

As I have a last minute project coming up pretty soon, I guess the only way is to get another 2 new/ 2nd hand studio flash units and I will be selling off the one that I have at the moment.

So those bros out here who had any contacts or know of any place that sells the Studio Flash, I would be grateful if you could kindly list them here. Thank you in advance for your willingness to share.

For Elinchrome strobes, u can try Cathay Photo, for Bowens, Ruby Photo, both at the Peninsula Plaza/Shopping Centre vicinity.

For CS, u can try AFIEND for Jinbei.

As for 2nd-hand strobes, not many places to find in SG.

If you have the budget for Broncolor or ProPhoto, u can try to contact Gin Studio and Shiriro House respectively.

light and compact. built in PW. main selling point. recycling and wattage definitely loses out to the other profoto packs. 5 times that of a jinbei strobe pricing.

Then I shall keep my jinbei longer till I strike 4D.

For a 600w/s unit it is pretty compact and light.

The next step up would be the Pro-7 series and they're not particularly portable, unless you have assistants to lug them around.

Build quality not as rugged compared to the Elinchrom ranger series. But you get to use Profoto modifiers, which are easy to handle in the field.

Before I consider Profoto, I am all for the Bowen Gemini series. But, I prefer to control the lighting power from the battery pack. I got a habit to put the strobe to its maximum height to create flare. ......
