BEAU PHOTO HAS A NEW WEBSITE, AND BLOG!





Greetings! It has been a long time coming, but Beau Photo Supplies now has a
brand-new website! This is not a mere refresh of our old site, rather it's a
ground-up new design, something we've been working on in-house for the last
couple of years. The new site will feature lots of imagery, something we all
agreed was important from the day we first started discussing a new design.

This will be the last posting to this Google hosted blog, which has served us
quite well for a number of years now. We will be keeping this older blog around
for the foreseeable future, so people can still access older postings if they're
hunting for a previous article or review. Some of the more popular postings will
likely get transferred to our new blog, or some even to the articles or reviews
areas of our new site.

We will be trying very hard to ensure the new blog gets more postings, and on a
more regular basis. In addition, our new website will also be kept more
up-to-date with used equipment and will see many more product reviews and sample
image galleries. Finally, our new site actually has detailed listings of the
majority of the thousands of products we stock in our store! Currently, what are
missing are some of the smaller camera accessories, like caps, hoods, cables and
such, as well as a few key categories (continuous lighting and printer inks are
the obvious ones) that just didn't quite get done in time. Those should be added
within the next month or two as well.

So, without further ado, click on the banner at the top of this post to be taken
to a blog posting on our new site, welcoming you to our new site! Or click this
link below...

http://www.beauphoto.com/welcome-to-the-all-new-beau-photo-website/

For the main blog on the new site, this is the link...

http://www.beauphoto.com/blog/

DNS propagation should have completed pretty much worldwide by now, but if the
above links don't seem to work, or if you're still seeing our old site when you
visit www.beauphoto.com, which looks like the left part of the above banner
image, try hitting reload on your browser. If that doesn't work, just give it
another day or so. Lastly, the mobile presentation of the new site, how it
displays on tablets and smartphones, is a little less than ideal at present.
We'll be working on tuning that in the future.

In any case, we hope you enjoy the new site and find it much more useful than
our old one. Enjoy!

ORANGEMONKIE IS NOW AT BEAU PHOTO





Here is a couple great new products that you just might need. The FOLDIO2 by
Orangemonkie is a 15 inch portable shooting tent that comes with its own LED
lights. It is great for web merchandising or product photography for jewelry,
shoes, sunglasses, beauty products and many more. The LED strip lighting is a
daylight temp of 5700K and completely dimmable. Also what is great is that is
folds down into a neat little package making it a truly portable lighting
solution for the on-the-go product photographer. Add to that the FOLDIO360, and
you can easily create 360 degree product images using a smart phone or a digital
camera. The FOLDIO360 uses Bluetooth and IR sensors to connect directly to your
smart phone and DSLR. Once you click on the start button, it will automatically
rotate, take pictures, and combine them to create one final 360 degree image.

FOLDIO2      $109.95

FOLDIO360  $189.95

ARGUS DAY 2017!


Argust 17th, 2017

Its almost August and as usual all Argus enthusiasts will be gearing up for
Argus Day 2017! Meghan and myself are Beau Photo's Argus fans and we have many
customers who also adore Argus cameras.

Just in time for Argus Day 2017, Meghan has acquired a new Argus 75. Unlike her
previous black Argus Seventy-Five 1949-1958, this one is a later version
manufactured from 1958-1964 and it has a lustrous brown finish. Like last year
Meghan will have to alter some 120 film to fit it in her Argus 75 as it was
intended for 620 film. Luckily with these cameras it just requires her to use
scissors and cut down a 120 spool of film. For myself, as there are many
intriguing Argus cameras floating around, I'd like to shoot a different Argus
camera than I did last year when I shot the Argus A and the Argus C3. This year
I hope to borrow an Argus C33 from a friend who is an avid Argus collector!

You can share your Argus Day photos on social media, as we’d love to see them
all! Use the hashtag #ArgusDay2016 or on Twitter mentions us @beauphotostore or
Instagram @beau_photo_supplies. You can also email any of your photos to
film@beauphoto.com and we will include them in our next post with all our photos
from Argus Day! Be sure to include what camera you used.

There is even a special Argus Collectors page, dedicated to all things Argus
with many great reference guides and info. You can also submit your Argus Day
photos to them each year, which they then post to their yearly archive.

NOBLEX FOR SUMMER!









Noblex Super Wide PRO 6/150 U

Want a unique Camera for your summer shooting? Looking for an amazing medium
format film camera? The Noblex Super Wide PRO 6/150 U is it. NOBLEX cameras are
film cameras that expose the film by rotating the lens 360° for one exposure.
The film rests on the curved film plane, and is exposed through the constant
shutter slit. During the first half of the rotation the lens drum is accelerated
to a constant speed insuring absolutely even exposure of the film during the
second half of the rotation. This results in distortion free photographs with an
angle of view of 146° when using a NOBLEX PRO 6/150. What makes these pictures
stand out are their remarkably even edge to edge illumination and unsurpassed
sharpness. This camera was recently serviced to make sure it is fully
functional. This item is new in its original box but please note the rear
battery doors are missing.

Here is a link to see some examples of great photos you can take with a Noblex
camera:

PROFOTO B1X POWER IN ALL THE RIGHT PLACES






The Profoto B1 became the benchmark for the on-location flash. Now, the
benchmark is about to be set again with the launch of the Profoto B1X.

More than an update, this is a significant replacement with improvements in
three important areas; power, power and power.

The B1X features a new LED modelling light which adds 80% more light output. The
new battery pack holds an impressive 50% more energy with no extra size or
weight. And last but not least, the High Speed Sync power range is extended to
the same range as in normal flash mode - 9 full f-stops.

Add to that two new OCF reflectors that are compact in size yet add lots of
punch and direction to overpower the sun and no matter where you’re shooting,
you’ll have power in all the right places.

Find out all about these new products at:
https://profoto.com/speed-redefined/ca/b1x/

HASSELBLAD TRADE-IN PRICING...





On June 1st, 2017, Hasselblad will be implementing some changes to their
trade-in/upgrade program. There will be a slight price increase across the
board, on average roughly about 10%. In addition, and more importantly for those
with older systems, there will no longer be any trade-in allowance at all for
H3D and older systems. Only H4D systems and newer will be eligible for a
trade-ins as of June 1st.

Hasselblad's trade-in allowances have been very generous for older systems,
generally far in excess of what you could get if trying to sell on the used
market. So... if you have been contemplating an upgrade, do not delay!

Following is a link to Hasselblad's website that details the changes to the
upgrade program. Note that the prices listed are in USD of course. Right now,
you'd be looking at roughly 40% more in CDN dollars, once shipping, exchange,
brokerage etc. is factored in. So, multiply those prices by 1.4x to estimate
Canadian costs.

Hasselblad H6D Trade-In Price Change Details

Also, if you have been thinking of a new Hasselblad, but do not have a system to
trade, we actually have two used H3D-39 systems at the moment. You could buy
one, trade it in towards a new H6D, and come out way ahead since you will get
far more value on the trade than the cost of the used one. In addition, with
those used cameras you can pick up an 80mm lens as well, and even a film
magazine with one of them, since those items will not need to be sent in for the
trade, only the body, prism and digital back, as well as some accessories and
caps. See the image at the top of the post to see the two cameras we currently
have. Note that the one on the right has the added GPS module attachment as well
and if you click on the image, it will open up bigger to more easily read the
tags.

As an example of trade-in value, let's say you wanted to get a new H6D-50c. The
regular pricing here in Canada for an outright purchase with no trade-in, is
$36,395. However, if you were to trade in either of the H3D systems above, the
price drops to $25,345, for a trade-in allowance of $11,050. So, you can save
$5,250 by buying, then trading the H3d on the left, or save $6,050 for the one
on the right! Plus, you get to keep the 80mm lens on either one, whereas a new
one would be $4,350! The film magazine new, should you care about having one, is
$3,050!

So, you can see that there'd be well over $10,000 in savings, factoring in the
lens and accessories, on either of those two used cameras, should you buy and
then trade towards a new H6D-50c. But only before June 1st, so don't let this
great opportunity slip away; contact us today!
