Wag Flags


The Wag Flag is a versatile frame that can be used with interchangeable slippers of various materials to create different light shaping tools, the size of which can be adjusted by rolling or unrolling the length of the hanging fabric. Convenient for quickly setting up bounces, diffusion, or negative fill and in situations where butterfly frame setups or wider flags can’t be easily maneuvered.

Please see Wag Flag sizes and Slipper material options in the charts below.
