Product Information
The Nocturnal Lights Ball Joint Connector (BJ.IKEQR) is a 1-inch ball joint accessory built to attach to Ikelite quick release handles, giving underwater photographers and videographers a mounting point for strobes or lights on a 1-inch ball arm system. It is part of the 1-inch Ball Arm System Mark II and uses a grooved ball with an o-ring to resist slippage.
Who it is for
This connector is for divers who already use Ikelite quick release handles and want to add or extend a 1-inch ball arm connection for mounting a light or strobe to their camera rig. It is designed to work within the 1-inch Ball Arm System Mark II, so it suits photographers building out or expanding an existing ball arm setup.
Key details
