Nova Off-Camera Wireless Flash for iPhone<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Nova<\/p>\n

First to come up with a Bluetooth off-camera flash for iPhone, Nova has gone a step further letting you sync multiple flash at the same time.<\/p>\n

\"Four<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Up to 10 Nova Bluetooth Flash<\/a> units can be controlled by one iPhone with the newest v1.2 app. (Look for the \u201cNova Camera\u201d app in the app store or you\u2019ll be wading through a mine field of game apps if you search for \u201cnova\u201d.)<\/p>\n

\"Nova<\/p>\n

While the flash is perfectly sized to fit in your wallet, it\u2019s a bit thick, the same thickness as six credit cards, and I\u2019m guessing you\u2019ll prefer a shirt pocket or purse. In either case, when it\u2019s photo shoot time, you\u2019re going to love having this infinitely adjustable light with its 40 warm and cool, slightly diffused LED\u2019s creating the illumination for your photos.<\/p>\n

\"Nova<\/p>\n

After loading the app, press the \u201cflash\u201d shaped icon to bring up your controls where you can pick warm or cool light (or a blend), and the amount of light. Hold down the \u201ctest\u201d button and the light will come on as long as you hold it so you can adjust your placement\u2026it\u2019ll probably be brighter than you imagined, so this is your time to refine it. Then fire away.<\/p>\n

After your shot, go into Photo Editor where you\u2019ll be given a plethora of editing choices including one of my favorites, \u201cFocus\u201d where you can keep your subject\u2019s face in focus while blurring the background around him. There are dozens of others including cropping, vignettes, frames, stamps, drawing and meme capabilities.\u00a0 The editor is almost worth the price of admission by itself.<\/p>\n

Check out the Nova Bluetooth Flash at http:\/\/novaphotos.com<\/a> or for a better deal, get a four-pack of repackaged Nova\u2019s for only $44.25 each<\/span>.\u00a0 That\u2019s the start of a cool photo studio for only $177.<\/p>\n
