Hey Guys,
I have just had a mini kit of K-Flect reflectors in the studio for some testing. I am pretty amazed at these little panels. All I can say it that this reflector kit, with it's simple 10cm x10cm reflectors blew my mind. It literally turned one light into 17 potential lights and creative choices. To be honest I thought a little 10x10 reflector would be kinda useless except for tabletop but I was actually very surprised at how handy these things are, especially with their magnetic mini-grip system.
This works with your existing lighting, so you do not need their "parabeam" to make it work. I could use a 1K light and five reflectors to turn it into a 5light setup. The whole system was set up by a cinematographer, so it's all created with on set usage in mind. The sizes range from 10x10cm to 100x100, but I think I could easily light an interview with the 10x10's if you choose the right combo.
For the cost of one fixture, you kinda add 17 possibilities to your lighting setups.
Crazy!
I am considering setting up a group buy for this, but I would like to gauge interest first. When you wrap your head around lighting this way, it's pretty cool.
If anyone has any questions, just let me know.
Here are the links to check out.

Here is the pricing info and details for this group buy.
Initially I asked Frederic if he might put together special pricing for the tabletop kit so that Redusers could get a sense of the system and not have to break the bank to get a nice kit together.
I'm surprised at what he has come back with:
20% off the price of the K-Box tabletop kit
regular 685€ discounted price is 548€
That includes 17 10cmx10cm reflector panels and grip equipment!
but beyond that he has included a 20% discount on over 240 items
And 20% off five different kits including: (that's 20%off the already discounted kit pricing)
XL starter kit
DOP starter kit
Mini starter kit
TT starter kit
K-box TT kit
plus 240 mix and match items.
all 20% off.
Here is how it will work.
-Email il me at my email address which you can find in my user profile.
-subject line — Group Buy: K-FLECT lighting System
-I will email you a configuration spreadsheet with all the pricing listed along with a unique password.
-You order directly from K-Flect and they will prepare and ship your order worldwide.
-The Reduser order offer expires on August 10th, 2014 one password per customer.
Check back here on this thread for configuration ideas and Q&A between now and then.
I think it's a very generous offer as people can buy kit or individual pieces, all at a 20% discount! a great way to get familiar with the system or save on multiple pieces if you already used the system.
As a tip, everyone will want to order number 1, 2 and 9 in 10x20 or 30x30 without blinking.
