Events Photographer Mark Ratcliffe talks About the MagMod System
The new and improved MagGrip 2 makes for lightning-fast and secure modifier attachment thanks to its patented magnetic modular design. Now optimized to reduce weight, improved compatibility with round-head flashes, and a smaller footprint on your flash
MagMod’s patented magnetic modular design makes for lightning-fast and secure flash modifier changes. Stack multiple modifiers to really customize your light control setup.
Newly redesigned and optimized for round-head flashes, the MagGrip 2 features a flexible silicone band that stretches across almost any hotshoe flash.
Want to upgrade your flash later down the road? No prob. The MagGrip 2 works with a variety of mixed flash brands, including round-head flashes so you won’t need to upgrade all of your modifiers when you move up to a different size flash.
The new MagGrip 2 design is smaller and lighter on your flash while simultaneously increasing magnetic strength for secure, strong modifier attachment.
The new MagGrip 2 features increased magnetic strength compared to previous versions. With the MagGrip 2 on your flash, you can say goodbye to noisy hook and Loop fasteners, sticky adhesives and weaker modifier designs thanks to MagMod’s super-fast, secure, and perfectly optimized magnetic flash modifiers.
The MagGrip 2 was redesigned to be smaller on your flash and lighter on your neck. Compared to the original MagMod modifiers, the new MagMod 2 modifiers are so light they almost feel like they're not even on your flash!
The MagGrip 2 is a flexible silicone band that stretches over your flash and stays put no matter what you do. Silicone rubber retains 99% of its elasticity over time—even after long, repeated use
Silicone rubber retains 99% of its elasticity over time—even after long, repeated use. The MagGrip 2 is so durable you can slam it on the floor, shove it deep within your bag, heck, run it over with your car—the MagMod modifiers can take a beating!

Leave MagGrip on. Make life easier.
The first time I stretched this little guy over the end of my flash, I knew it was going to live there. Yes, it’s tight on my Canon 600 Ex-RT’s, but it’s not TOO tight….just the right amount of snug. They even fit (snugly again!) in the cases for the flash, so it’s not a big deal, although I find I leave them bare in the camera bag now. (Your flash now has a big hunk of rubber on it…it’s safe!)
The magnets are the newer, stronger ones, and I’ve TRIED to shake off a few accessories stacked…it’s not letting go!
Buy one for each flash. Leave it on. Make life easier.

Best Modifier
When the MagGrip is on the flash head, it’s not coming off. This is the single best modifier holding system that actually doesn’t need constant re-adjusting throughout an event. What makes it even better is the strength of the magnets that mount the other MagMod modifiers to the flash head. It’s these individual strong aspects that allow the MagMod system to shine, all starting with the MagGrip.

amazing ! just leave it on !
I bought three of these guys to add to my Yongnuo flashes. These are pretty much going to be permanent for my flashes as stretching them over the flash head was tedious–my husband added the first one because I just couldn’t do it myself!
I like that the big rubber grip adds a little more safety to the flash so that, if it falls, it is less likely to be hurt.
These do add a little weight to the flash, but I don’t keep my flash on my camera so that doesn’t bother me in the slightest. The bulk is minimal, but it will take up a bit more space in your travel bags. However, with the attachments taking up such little space, you make up for this in the long run.
