Isotta is now shipping its new RED64 strobe, which the Italian company had on display in their booth at the ADEX Singapore dive show in April. With an anodized aluminum body sporting Isotta’s signature red paint, the RED64 features a circular flash tube, promising a smooth, even light beam. The strobe has a guide number of 22 and a color temperature of 5,300ºK. Flash power can be manually adjusted in 10 increments, from GN 22 to GN 1.

According to Isotta, at GN 8, the strobe can keep up with burst shooting at 6fps, and when fully charged, the strobe achieves 300 flashes at full power. The company says the strobe offers high-speed sync (HSS) compatibility with Sony, Canon and Nikon cameras. Powered by eight rechargeable AA batteries, the strobe can be triggered fiber-optically or electrically via its S6 bulkhead.

Available now from retailers such as Backscatter, the Isotta RED64 costs $1,500.
