August 31, 2010

The Phottix Atlas gets around. I thought Team Phottix was well traveled – not so. The Atlas is one busy trigger – Dubai, Taiwan, Germany, Italy, and now “down under” in Australia.

Photographer Edward Hor took the Atlas to the beach. With his Elinchrom Ranger, sun, sand, and surf, and a really pretty model, he shot the video below. Some guys have all the fun.

What’s stopping you? Pick up an Atlas today!

The soon-to-be-announced Phottix Velo Camera Strap sold like hotcakes. And, the  new Phottix “mystery” products mentioned last week were also well regarded by Hong Kong shooters – stay tuned for an announcement.
