If you shoot the carrier of the Flashback Clothing from Beta fire with a smart phone or other digital camera with a flash, receives unusable Photos: The clothing is equipped with a highly reflective surface that brings the exposure of cameras confused. The result is images that show the true reflections of the white camera flash or LED light, but the rest is black.

 

The crowd funding platform Beta Brand has introduced a clothing collection, which is designed to protect the wearer from lightning attacks of annoying phone photography and other photographers. Especially with Smartphone the flash or the LED light is often automatically used to brighten the surroundings a little. As long shutter speeds or high ISO values are prevented.

 

Professional paparazzi are probably not work with the flash, but against private photos from “reader reporters” and similar users that are equipped with smart phones and compact cameras, the clothes, the white in the unlit state and is gray could help quite.

 

DJ and music producer Chris Holmes had the idea for Flashback. The garments are coated with a material which, as with other reflective heat transfer film the light that falls on them, reflecting directly back to the light source. This is realized with tiny glass beads, which are applied to a reflection film. Is something known far more as stripe marks on jackets, shoes or backpacks?

 

The clothing collection on offer includes a suit consisting of trousers and reflective jacket, a hooded jacket, a scarf and a cap. The prices are relatively high. The trousers cost around $ 230 to call cap $ 50 to just two examples.
