Tiffen adds new lowel prime location LEDs

Tiffen International has announced the availability of an addition to the Lowel LED family. The new Lowel Prime Location LED lights provide a practical on-location solution for the quality and versatility of prime studio lights.

Lowel Prime Location LED lights are designed for real-world location lighting and include a rugged housing and an IP-65 (Ingress Protection) weather rating so they can operate in conditions including rain and sand or dust storms. These primes are manufactured to provide reliable ‘studio’ lighting while withstanding the handling and set-up conditions expected in location operation. The rugged all-metal housing makes them suitable for use with rental houses and grip trucks alike.

The lights offer a high output spread over a 50-degree beam angle from their 1×1 LED panel. They are available in three versions, Daylight, Tungsten and Bi-colour. They deliver a high quality of light with a high Colour Rendering Index (CRI) of 93 and can be dimmed without producing a colour shift. The light-diffusion front-piece helps to reduce any LED multi-shadow effects.

There are further features to help in meeting the practical needs of location work. The lights can run from 90–240 VAC power supplies. Also, to connect multiple lights Powercon AC bridging between fixtures is provided as standard, reducing the need for multiple AC outlets. The lights are also supplied with a choice of V-lock or Anton Bauer Gold Mount plates for battery operation. And as there are no fans, operation is practically silent.

Light control accessories and kit combinations are also available. The Lowel Prime Location LEDs offer practical lighting for ENG/EFP and the small location studio setups of real-world production.
