The compact, battery-powered Smoke NINJA adds a creative touch of mystery and impact to your shoots
Mini marvel

The incredibly compact SmokeNINJA machine enhances the atmosphere and impact of photography and video shoots. Offering a dynamic selection of fog, dry ice, or steam settings to ensure your scenes are packed with a dramatic punch, it's a next-generation smoke generator.

The SmokeNINJA is a battery-powered, wireless, handheld mini smoke machine that's aimed at photographers, videographers, and on-the-go creative content shooters. At just over 14cm tall it weighs just 286g and can be quickly operated on location or in the studio when inspiration strikes.

It saves users from lugging around a heavy smoke machine, needing mains power, and having to carry a large canister of diluted liquid and even then only doing smoke/haze. This is quick, portable, and convenient, and adds more creativity with effects such as Dry Ice and Steam alongside haze, that cannot be achieved with a conventional smoke machine.
