  Soft box light.

"With over twenty years of lighting experience, I have never before utilized a system of illumination that has such a profound effect upon the very specialized field of high speed tabletop photography.  These extremely efficient High Output Soft Box Lights have eliminated the painstaking task of having to devise creative and ingenious lighting schemes for each and every slow motion scene.  It is now possible to attain proper levels of exposure/depth of field as well as an aesthetically appealing quality of light and consistency, not compromise.  As a result, lighting setup time requirements and budget costs are substantially reduced allowing for additional emphasis to be placed upon other important aspects of production."

- Jim Kimura, Director/Cinematographer

 
     
 
 
     
  These compact, high output Tungsten soft box lights come in three different outputs:  24K, 34K and 58K.  Shooting high speed requires extremely high light levels.  These lights have been especially designed for close-up, high speed, table top photography, giving the subject more "light wrap" than conventional lamps.

FEATURES
Soft face consists of a single sheet of replaceable semi-transparent white plexiglass.  Built-in gell frames can be used for additional color correction gels or diffusion.  Each light head consists of 24, 34, or 58 FCM 1,000 Watt bulbs in a single cooled aluminum housing.  Uses Bates/Group 5 125V 100 Amp input connectors.  115V Exhaust cooling fans use a standard Edison plug.  Can be used with Strand CD 80 or ETC SD 12,000 (12K) dimmers.  Four plexiglass shields are included. 

WARNING
Maximum burn time period is approximately 8 seconds at 100% between short cooling periods when using Plexiglas diffusion.  There will be a $20.00 replacement charge for any melted or damaged Plexiglas shields.  Other materials such as Tough White (216) may provide longer burn times.
