LUMEDYNE
NEXT GENERATION SERIES
Flash Heads
The flash heads are
electronically able to
handle 2400ws (they
are only limited by the
800ws or 2400ws Quartz
Flashtube in the head).
They have a round shape,
1/4-20 threaded mount, and
have an ultra lightweight
PVC plastic body. This
makes them popular for
camera bracket mounting.
These Heads are compatible with all generations
and styles of Lumedyne Power Packs. There are
no TTL Connections on these Heads only dual
sync connections (1/8˝ mini-phone and house-
hold). Next Generation Flash Heads can be
customized to have TTL compatible connections
for Quantum or Metz TTL Modules (but they will
be longer and notably more expensive.)
You must have a Lumedyne TTL compatible
Power Pack to utilize TTL features and original
Quantum or Metz TTL modules and cables.
Lumedyne Heads are not E-TTL or D-TTL
compatible because of pre-flash light metering
requirements.
Heads include two densities of Diffusers, a metal
Snoot, Guide Cards, a two-position reflector, 25
watt Modeling Bulb and 800ws UV or 2400ws
Quartz UV Flashtube.
Heads are available with a built-in 5´ straight or
3-to 7´ coiled, or a pig-tail cable option for those
who want to use Auto Modules or just remove the
separate head cable for transportation.

Action Series
Action Packs are ideal for
those photographers need a
high power flash with a very
short flash duration. This allows
faster shutter speeds and will
produce sharper images of fast
action much better than a
normal flash of similar power.
◆ Action Series packs are designed for extreme sports, rodeo, racing, scientific and
nature photographers who need to stop action that is not very close to them. These
packs will not freeze a bullet fired from a gun. The tips of a hummingbird’s wings
may still show very slight motion. They are the most effective at the highest settings
because that is four times faster than a normal flash at that power. At half power,
they are twice the speed of a normal flash of similar power. At the lowest setting,
they are equal to Lumedyne’s normal flash duration for that power.
◆ The Action Packs will flash at all three power levels with the same fast flash
duration. Normally, to double the power required to reach the next f-stop, a flash
lasts twice as long. These packs actually get twice as bright for the same flash
duration. Each pack can double up this way to provide three power settings.
Each Pack has one head jack and a battery gauge. A weight reduction Op-Tech
shoulder strap is included.
◆ The X-tra fast recycling times of these packs require a Medium Battery or larger
for best performance. The 200ws recycle time is only 1.3 seconds, 2.5 seconds for
400ws. High Speed Modules can be used to provide even faster recycling if you have
Extra Large Batteries.
◆ Action Packs will NOT work Booster Modules, and AC power supplies, as well,
must not be used with them. The Vehicle Adapter works fine if you have a 30 amp
fuse in-line to your cigarette lighter, those are normally 15 amp from most car
companies.
◆ While the Action Packs are compatible with all Lumedyne Flash Heads, the 2400ws
Quartz Flashtube is required for the 400ws P4XX and recommended for the 200ws
P2XX. No other brand of flash head or Auto Module should be used with the
Action Packs. The guide number of the light output is about equal to Lumedyne’s
normal flash systems, it just happens much faster.
◆ Some cameras can sync with a flash at faster shutter speeds, but that could cut off
some of the light output from a high power flash. These packs allow you to cut
down the ambient light with your faster shutter speed without cutting off the end
of the flash illumination.
