3000W Showtime Quartz Dimmable 3 Light Kit w/Boom

The ability to dim lighting adds a new dimension to light control and creativity. It allows the photographer, video or filmmaker to set up lighting ratios. This is how shadows are created on one side of the face but not the other, adding a more dramatic feel to the subject matter rather than just even lighting.

Until recently, you were stuck with having to use external dimmers. They are cumbersome and sometimes unreliable. Sometimes they can even create an unwanted flicker in the light.

This dimmable series of light fixtures has changed all of that. The dimmer is actually an electronic circuit that provides for dimming from 500 to 1000 watts with the simple roll of a knob. Because it is an electronic dimmer there is no flicker, rather constant and stable light that is set from behind the fixture as opposed to a remote, external dimmer.

This light fixture has been hailed by both still photographers along with video and filmmakers as a great way to garner full functionality from a relatively inexpensive lighting solution. In addition to the dimmer feature, these lights also come with a four leaf barn door system and a unique dual scrim softbox system to provide for total light modification and control.

The fixtures emit the indoor standard 3200 degrees Kelvin color temperature. The bulbs are about $10.00 each to replace and have a life of approximately 400 hours.

This Quartz Light has several upgraded enhancements. First, the significantly improved Quartz Light system features a vastly improved dimming circuit.  It is a solid state device, rather than analog, that dims the light without any flicker whatsoever.  This is a huge consideration, especially when filming at higher shutter speeds and in HD.

Another improvement, is the High Reflective Silver Chrome Softbox.  It is a dual scrim system comprised of an outer and an inner scrim.  You can use one, both or none to create the ideal level of diffusion for your particular shooting situation.  This eliminates any hot spots on your subjects but will still provide plenty of forward light throw.

This system is a truly high performance dimmable light source that allows you full control over your lighting.  It will provide years of reliable operation in a highly portable and easy to set-up and stow turn-key lighting solution.

*These series of lights utilize a small quiet fan for cooling. While they are used extensively in film and video work, please use caution not to place the microphone too close to any light fixture that is cooled by a fan.
