REVEALING [qudos] THE WORLD’S FIRST HI-POWERED ACTION VIDEO LIGHT Capturing the darkness. Shooting after sunset. Filming with a fill light. The immaculately designed [qudos] action will highlight the night.
With over 10 years of innovation in cycle accessories and lights, leading global brand Knog brings you [qudos] action, the world’s first hi-powered action video light designed specifically with Go-Pro in mind - but with DSLR and tripod adaptor. Offering unprecedented freedom for nocturnal thrill-seekers, the [qudos] action seamlessly partners the GoPro 2 and Hero3/Hero3+, as well as other action cameras with GoPro conversion mounts. It also comes with a cold shoe so DSLRs and tripods can get in on the action. Delivering a mighty 400 lumens of light from its three powerful Cree LEDs and weighing only 150 grams, the [qudos] has multiple modes to adjust brightness and light speed, allowing users to control their shots in any scene or location – whether deep underwater, high up the mountain, or anywhere in between. “Creating great video isn’t a limited domain anymore. Like DSLRs have democratised great photography, GoPro, Sony, Garmin and others have made action film-making available to everyone” says Knog’s founder and CEO Hugo Davidson. “But it’s still hard to get good footage in the dark. And that means some people’s talents never see the light of day, so to speak. We want to highlight those people who do crazy, adventurous, interesting things at night. Hence the name – we want to give people the kudos they deserve”. The [qudos] action’s sealed rear battery door, marine grade aluminium heat sink and faceplate are engineered to light underwater descents to depths of 40m, while the durable LiPo rechargeable battery provides the power for perfect footage. Available in midnight black or bullet-proof silver to match the Go-Pro gear, the [qudos] looks every bit as good as the films it helps create. The [qudos] action is available in Australia now at JB HiFi for AUS$149. And from from mid-August in Autobahn, and mid September in Harvey Norman For images, visit our FTP: http://www.knog.com.au/ftpportal/press/qudos.html For more information please contact: Sean Wilkinson
