About

Rollei Studio

Read full description

The "Rollei Studio" app enables you to set and control certain Rollei radio transmitters and thus lightning bolts, e.g. in power, synchronization modes and flash modes. Selected Rollei LED permanent lights can also be operated directly via the app and their output, color temperature, light effects etc. can be varied. All light sources can be divided into groups and thus controlled in a targeted manner. This allows you to operate your complex lighting setup flexibly and without great effort.
