Broncolor Brown Switzerland

Brown is a well-known professional lighting system manufacturer in the photography industry, with nearly 70 years of experience in camera lighting. 90% of its products are used for export, and it is the first brand of choice for professional photographers in more than 60 countries around the world, and it is also the highest lighting standard equipment recognized by professional photo studios around the world. The stability of Brown lamps is at the top level in the industry, and cultural relics are usually required not to be photographed with flash, but Brown's lamp head has UV blocking technology to avoid ultraviolet damage to cultural relics, so it is the designated fill light brand for cultural relics shooting in many countries. In the early years, Brown's products have been driven by a rectifier box plugged into the mains, and the luminaires are highly efficient and stable, and are recognized as the best fill light brand in the industry, until Buffo, another top manufacturer of photographic equipment, launched lithium battery flashes, creating a precedent for mobile flashes, and Brown's supremacy was shaken. Brown's winning formula for standing among the market leaders is the self-developed ECTC throttling technology, which enhances the stability of the flash, in addition to having strong high-speed shooting capabilities, it is not used when powered by lithium batteries.
