Marelux Apollo III 2.0 Underwater Strobe: A Professional’s Choice for Underwater Photography
The Marelux Apollo III 2.0 Underwater Strobe is a cutting-edge lighting tool for underwater photography enthusiasts and professionals. Engineered for vibrant illumination and seamless operation, it ensures stunning shots in the most challenging marine environments. In addition to these innovative features, the underwater strobe will also feature a full power recycle time of 0.8s and a guide number of 44. The amount of light transmitted by the strobe can be adjusted in 12 incremental steps, indicated on the rear button by the numbers 1-12. The strobe comes with a target light, which has two colors, red and white, and two brightness levels.
The Apollo II strobe also features a wireless trigger mode, which requires the Lumilink optical transmitter to work as the signal transmitter.
Apollo III 2.0 Strobe Target Light
In modes other than the test mode, press the mode knob to turn on the target light. The target light has two colors, red and white, and each color has two brightness levels. Press the mode knob to change the color and brightness level.
Wireless Trigger Mode
To use the wireless trigger mode, the Lumilink optical transmitter is required as the signal transmitter. When the flashlight is turned on, the wireless trigger mode is disabled by default. In modes other than the test mode, press and hold the mode knob for 2 seconds, and after hearing four “beep” sounds, the wireless trigger mode will be activated. (Wireless triggering is supported in M, M-HSS, and MTL modes.).
Press and hold the mode switch for 2 seconds, and after hearing two “beep” sounds, the wireless flash mode will be deactivated.
The reception distance of the optical signal receiver underwater is 2 to above 10 meters up to visibility and brightness of sunlight (under strong sunlight, the effective range of reception for the optical signal receiver is 60-70 cm, with a reception angle of 50-60 degrees).
Apollo III 2.0 Strobe Indicator Light
The emission color of the strobe indicator light will change depending on the remaining battery level. Emission colors are shown in the table below.
Emission color vs. remaining battery level:
- Blue: 80~100%
- Green: 60~80%
- Yellow: 40~60%
- Purple: 20~40%
- Red: 0~20%
When the strobe indicator light is in a low battery state with a red light, please refrain from using the flash function to avoid damaging the battery.
The strobe will preheat for 10 seconds when first turned on, during which the strobe indicator light will remain red. Please wait for the preheating to finish before using the strobe. When the strobe overheats, it will trigger an overheat protection mechanism, preventing further flash triggering. The strobe indicator light will become yellow, indicating the need for cooling for a few minutes
Light Level Control Knob
The light amount can be adjusted in 12 increments:
The tube’s lifespan is tested through one million full-power cycles. To achieve the longest possible lifespan and safety, the electronic components of the Apollo III are designed with redundant power, which may result in instability of brightness during low-power flickering. Minor variations in brightness will occur at positions below the third level in M mode and below the sixth level in MTL mode.
Applications:
- Wide-Angle Photography: Illuminate expansive underwater scenes with uniform lighting.
- Macro Photography: Capture intricate details of marine life with precision-controlled brightness.
- Recreational diving: To enhance underwater memories with vibrant and professional-quality images.
- Professional Assignments: Meet the demands of commercial and editorial underwater photography.
The Marelux Apollo III 2.0 Underwater Strobe is the ultimate companion for underwater photography, providing superior performance, reliability, and ease of use. With its advanced features and professional-grade quality, it ensures every dive results in breathtaking imagery.
