Just place an order with PCB for a Einstein. Don't know if I would need a 11" long throw reflector or not.

Does anybody use this reflector? Any example of what kind of photo this light would produce? TIA!

I have always had them on my ab 1600's for use in arena's, indoor\outdoor both, for 5+ years, far superior than the smaller 5\6" reflectors ......you should be able to get fit info at PCB website or call them.

You are aware, I assume, that the 11" only covers a 28 degres Angle of Coverage (about 100mm lens on FF), which results in 2.66EV brighter output, compared to the standard reflector's coverage of 80 degrees (about 28mm lens on FF)?
