Accessorizing your Honey Badger Shipping Cover Every Honey Badger flash head includes a protective shipping cover. The shipping cover offers protection to the glass dome, flash tube, and LED modeling lamp during transportation and storage. To remove the shipping cover, pull back on the modifier quick release on the top of the flash unit to release the mount lock. While holding back the release button, twist the shipping cover counterclockwise.
Accessorizing your Honey Badger Umbrellas Umbrellas are the most widely-used modifiers in photography. Their ease-of-use and versatility makes them quick to master; a go-to modifier in many situations. Umbrellas can be mounted to the Honey Badger using the umbrella shaft mount on the bottom of the flash unit. The shaft mount can accommodate the wide variety of Interfit brand umbrellas and parabolic umbrellas as well as most umbrellas up to a 3/8” (8mm) diameter pole.
