Product Information

Full details

The Westcott Fusion 10-in-1 Light Control System is designed for photographers and videographers seeking versatile light modification in both natural and studio settings. Its primary benefit is providing a comprehensive toolkit for diffusion, reflection, and enhancement with large 4' x 6' surfaces, reducing the need for multiple light modifiers. A potential caveat is its size, which, while portable, may require some space for optimal use outdoors.

Troubleshooting

Surface not staying taut

Ensure the surface is correctly attached to all frame points and check that the frame is fully assembled and locked.

System is unstable outdoors

Utilize the provided ground stakes and ensure they are firmly inserted into the ground. Consider adding additional weight if necessary on very windy days.

Light mount feels loose

Tighten the mounting screw securely. Ensure the speedlight or strobe mount is compatible with the Fusion system's adapter.
