horn player in symphony orchestra !) , it's function is to diffuse your
strobe light to a significantly smaller area, hence creating various
interesting lighting macro effects. Various attachments with different
diameter openings are provided.

and built-in focus light are recommended when using the snoot, trial and
error method applies to find the correct exposure, angle and amount of
light emission onto the subject.Two attachments ie macro and super macro are included for various beam angle and are interchangeable underwater.

enables the user to adjust and fine tune the position of the tube
attachments. Additional bungee cords are now provided for extra
security. All strobe control buttons and functions are available with
the snoot attached.
The snoot and all attachments

animals. Karabiner snap hook doubles as snoot carrier on the BCD and
securing to camera arm system. Attachments come in a soft mesh, draw
string bag all to a very attractive retail price!
Seahorn
snoot can be used on land as well, not only for photography but also as
a signal horn, provided you can buzz your lips through the small tube! (
similar to a trumpet/horn player ) If you happened to be a brass
player, a standard trombone or euphonium mouthpiece fits into the super
macro attachment! It's perfectly tuned to the natural harmonics of "C"!
Patience,
creativity and repetitive trials with the Seahorn snoot may result in
those award winning, killer shots that you're looking for!
