Studio strobes are powerful flash units used in photography to provide bright, consistent lighting. They are typically used in a controlled environment, such as a photography studio, to illuminate subjects effectively. Unlike regular camera flashes, studio strobes can be adjusted for intensity and duration, allowing photographers to create the desired lighting effects. These strobes often come with various accessories, such as softboxes and umbrellas, which help diffuse and soften the light. They are commonly used in portrait, product, and fashion photography, enabling photographers to achieve professional-quality images with precise control over lighting conditions.
