The SkyPanel S60-C LED Softlight reaffirms ARRI’s commitment to accurate color rendering with interchangeable thermoplastic diffusers and light output up to a 10,000K. Key features include:
Multi-voltage AC & optional battery power
Hue and saturation control
115° beam spread
Full minus to full plus green
Adjustable Color Rendering & Light Beam Quality. The SkyPanel S60-C offers the components and features of the L-Series LED fresnels, like the ability to adjust color temperatures between 2800K and 10,000K, with accurate color rendition over the entire range. Full plus and minus green correction can be achieved with the simple turn of a knob, and in addition to CCT control, vivid color selection and saturation adjustment are also possible. Applications for this controllability range from quickly adjusting the CCT to set the mood of a scene to selecting the chroma green output for green-screen color keying. Each LED light engine is computer-calibrated in order to ensure unit-to-unit and batch-to-batch consistency, as well as accurate color temperatures. SkyPanel’s combination of a precise selection of diffusion panels, LED mixing chamber, and large surface area allow for the light output to wrap around objects, eliminating sharp shadows and making for an ideal beauty light. The beam field is homogeneous in both color and intensity.
Versatility. This LED was designed to be used primarily as a soft light to illuminate people, but various built-in features make it extremely adaptable to other uses. With interchangeable diffuser panels on the front of the lamp head, going from the heavy to the lite diffusion panel can be done in a matter of seconds. The onboard battery input allows you to power the SkyPanel with industry-standard batteries and you can use a battery to operate the light 50% of its total power. The SkyPanel also makes an effective space light outputting a large downward-directed pool of color controllable soft light through an optional silk cylinder. Three simple knobs instantly adjust the color temperature, green/magenta balance, light intensity, and hue and saturation instantly. In addition to the on-board controls, all functions can be remotely adjusted via Digital Multiplex (DMX) or LAN network connections.
Built To Last. Made in Germany to ARRI standards, the SkyPanel is constructed from resilient materials and assembled by hand. The combination of an aluminum core with fiberglass-reinforced thermoplastics results in a solid fixture that can withstand heavy daily use on busy film sets. The easily-serviced electronics have been designed to last beyond a minimum of 25,000 hours, up to a maximum of 50,000 hours, while the LED light engine even allows for recalibration.
