Empowering Creativity

Light is a crucial design element. The world's first photographers and cinema pioneers were fully aware of this fact. In the meantime, the technology used in this domain has evolved by quantum leaps. Professionals have long embraced paradigm changes in digitalisation, image processing, storage media, and much more. Only light has remained the same - and with it our mission to accompany this evolution and to actively drive progress in professional lighting technology forward. Since 1958, our company has been characterised by a spirit of innovation and entrepreneurship. Today, our broncolor and VISATEC product lines are the world's leading brands for flash and lighting systems in professional photography. Countless studios around the globe rely on these indispensable tools. At the same time, Kobold has become a genuine synonym for light in the TV, film, broadcasting, and video communities. Precision, latest-generation technology, quality, reliability, and user-friendly designs are among the assets integrated in our products. To safeguard our leadership, we pursue the ongoing refinement and enhancement of all the systems we manufacture. A constant quest for optimisation and suggestions from our partners at the front lines are two sources of inspiration that put the fulfilment of real-world user needs in the focus of our development efforts. We invite you to explore the vast range of possibilities accessible to you with broncolor, VISATEC, and Kobold products. If you have questions or suggestions, please do not hesitate to make use of the feedback options offered by our Website. We look forward to hearing from you.

VISATEC philosophy

VISATEC flashlight equipment is designed to meet the demands and expectations of professional and semi-professional photographers. On the one side, VISATEC specializes for the needs of professionals - by focusing on the portraiture, people and location sectors. On the other side, VISATEC targets at users from trade fields and branches outside professional photography. Our high-quality products offer the photographer increased operational ease when realizing photographic tasks.
The all-round application possibilities and reliability of VISATEC equipment are based on consequent alignment of our products with the changing market needs and trends. We consider new innovative product development as well as continuous enhancement and improvement of our product range as true commitments to our customers. VISATEC monolights are quality products developed by Bron Elektronik AG in Allschwil in Switzerland. Since the 1950s, our company has stood behind the name broncolor, the world's leading brand of flash systems – in other words: the best light in photography. Professional photographers around the globe depend on the precision, quality, reliability and innovation of our products. More than 90% of our production is sold outside Switzerland, marketed by specialised retailers in 60 countries. In addition, more than 100 customer service locations ensure that our customers can count on fast and excellent service anywhere in the world. To meet the many different lighting requirements of professional photographers, in 1994 Bron Elektronik began offering not only broncolor but also a further brand: VISATEC. The Bron heritage VISATEC equipment contains all the innovation and experience of broncolor products. While equal in quality to the broncolor benchmark, VISATEC is a simpler system in terms of functionality. The smaller VISATEC bayonet also means lower production costs for accessories. VISATEC has clearly been a success: in just a few years the system has achieved a considerable market share, thanks not only to its perceptible quality but also to its attractive price/performance ratio.
