Frequently Asked Questions

It seems like a tight fi t on my
camera, should I be concerned?
Do not be concerned. Because the dimensions of
camera hot shoes vary between camera brands and
models, Safari will fi t some hot shoes more tightly than
others. The Safari’s spring-fi t mount is designed to
adjust to tighter fi tting hot shoes, so it will slide in and
out more easily after just a few uses.
Note: Nikon cameras generally will have a tighter
fi t than Canon cameras.
How durable is the Rogue Safari?
The Safari is extremely tough and can withstand
signifi cant pressure from pushing, pulling, twisting, etc.
You cannot damage the Safari by inserting it into, or
removing it, from the camera’s hot shoe.
How does Safari attach to my camera?
Rogue Safari was designed to fi t tightly into the hot shoe
so that it won’t fall out during active photography. To
insert the Safari, push the unit down and forward into
the camera hot shoe until it comes to a complete stop
against the back of the hot shoe. To remove a tight
fi tting Safari you may need to wiggle the unit from side
to side while pulling back.
What are the spacers included in the
Rogue Safari packaging used for?
Some cameras, most notably the Canon Digital Rebel
series, position the flash slightly higher in relationship to
the hot shoe mount than other cameras.
The spacers included in the package lock onto the Safari
mount, raising the height of the Safari. The raised height
allows for Safari’s light pattern to be centered in the field
of view. Two spacers of different heights are included to
accommodate for current and future cameras.
Note: The spacers are not required for any Nikon
cameras released prior to 2013.
How does Rogue Safari work?
Rogue Safari uses an optically-engineered fresnel lens to
redistribute the light from a compatible DSLR’s pop-up flash,
providing more light in a restricted field of view (>100mm
focal lengths on a 1.5 crop factor sensor). In other words,
the Safari lens takes light that would otherwise be spread
out at short range and instead focuses it in a smaller area to
extend the range of the pop-up flash.
What kind of light output should I
expect from Rogue Safari?
Rogue Safari’s light output varies somewhat by camera
model. We have measured as much as a 3 f/stop increase
(8x) in light compared to a bare pop-up flash at 20’-30’ (for
instance on a Canon 7D).
For what kind of photography is
Rogue Safari best suited?
Safari makes a difference whenever more light at a distance
will improve your photography. For instance, use Safari in
low-light situations, open shade, cloudy weather, or in full
sun as a fill light. Vacations, family outings, and nature
photography all provide great opportunities to use Safari.
