Sold! Strobe Backscatter MF2

[Rafael Moreira]

Hello Everyone, checking if anyone is interested on this Backscatter MF2 with all accessories and an XTAR battery. condition is like new (I really take care of my stuff)
I’m asking $320. A new one at Backscatter, without the battery, sells for $599.

Have preference for local pickup, I’m located in Katy/TX, but can meetup in Houston as well.

Thank you!

Do you know if you can use these as a focus light with an auto off feature?

Hi, I’m not sure what you mean by “auto off.” But the MF2 comes with a focus light that has three different power settings. This is very useful for seeing where the flash is pointing. Some night dives, I even used the focus light as my flashlight, even though I had the other two flashlights clipped into my BCD. So, it’s quite useful!

Fyi: auto off is really not needed 99% of the time. The focus light will not impact an image unless you shoot a very slow shutter.

yeah a lot of the time it's okay but I do shoot at low shutter speeds often and in silty water so do want to try a AFO focus light as I'm fed up of having to trying to remove the noticeable light/backscatter in post

The focus light is probably not the cause of backscatter. The strobe position and power level does that.
