BeamMount Universal
BeamMount Universal brings reliable illumination to any setup. By linking your flash directly to a single hunting-style torch, it keeps your light perfectly aligned with every shot - reducing fumbling, missed moments, and wildlife disturbance during night photography.
It’s ideal for photographers who work across different camera systems or want a simpler, travel-friendly mounting option.
Choosing Your Size
To select the right BeamMount Universal, measure the height of your flash head. Then follow this guide:
| Flash Head Height | Recommended Model |
|---|---|
| Above 40 mm (e.g. Canon 430EXIII, Canon EL-10) | Small |
| Above 45 mm (e.g. Godox V850II) | Medium |
| Above 50 mm (e.g. Canon 600EX-II, Canon EL-5, Nikon SB-5000, etc) | Large |
Pick the smallest model that still fits your flash. A snug fit ensures the most stable and consistent alignment. Note: Studio lights and flashes with circular heads are incompatible.
Model Overview
The Universal series trades the integrated Arca-Swiss base—and the rigid off-camera workflow of the BeamMount Pro—for broader compatibility and a lighter, more compact design. It’s the most adaptable way to combine aligned flash and torch lighting in your field workflow.
