Fiilex Announces Eight-Inch LED Fresnel
Fiilex has introduced the Q8 Travel, a light featuring a customized eight-inch Fresnel lens designed for the proprietary 300-watt DiCon Dense Matrix LED.
Fiilex said the new fixture offers one of the longest Fresnel zoom ranges in the industry: 12 - 60 degrees. The Q8 Travel can flood any wide space with an even spread of light, or focus into a spot with a well-defined edge and uniform beam profile near the center. There is no hot spot.
The Fiilex Q8 Travel addresses three major lighting needs of every film/video production. First, it produces high-quality light with the ability to smoothly blend with ambient lighting or precisely match lights from other fixtures.
Second, it has a solid construction. The robust housing ensures the fixture can withstand harsh transportation conditions and rough handling during rigging. The third it has an easy-to-use interface.
The LCD display and manual control knobs are sleek, intuitive and responsive. They allow for accurate adjustments and will help filmmakers establish faster and more efficient workflows on a set.
The Fiilex Q8 Travel is DC powered. It works with the included AC/DC adapter or can connect to many qualified 48 volt batteries. It weighs 16 pounds and is priced at $2,995.
