Description
The GlareOne Spotlight is an optical snoot that was created in cooperation with Piotr Werner – the long-standing brand ambassador of GlareOne. Piotr Werner creates images that have a lot of character and plays with light in the process. GlareOne Spotlight allows for experimenting with light and achieving interesting effects in photographs.
The GlareOne Spotlight is compatible with GlareOne 50, 85, and 150 mm lenses. It has valves that allow you to shape the light stream and the ability to mount Gobo filters. The body of the spotlight is made of metal and allows the use of flashes up to 600 Ws or LEDs up to 200 watts.
Lenses
In an optical injector such as Spotlight, the most important thing is the lens. The lens used here is a six-lens apochromat with a focal length of 50, 85 and 150 mm, which allows for very sharp edges of light and shadow. This is extremely important if you want to get full control over the lighting on set. In addition, the lens is designed to minimize chromatic aberration, which can cause color tinting. The lens must be purchased separately, it is not included in the kit.
Compatibility
Flaps
An integral part of the Spotlight’s body is a set of four shutter valves which can be used to adjust the light output of the lens to precisely illuminate only certain parts of your subject. The valves can also be used after replacing the standard lens with another one.
Masks
Spotlight is equipped with a fixture for effect masks (so-called gobos), which allow you to imitate, for example, the light coming through the window blinds or display various patterns and shapes. GlareOne offers 3 different sets of Gobo masks.
Interchangeable bayonet
The focuser is factory equipped with a Bowens type bayonet but it is possible to replace it. GlareOne offers matching Profoto, Broncolor and Elinchrom 152 series bayonets.
