Power for your project

The Titan X2 performs across the entire CCT spectrum, Rotolight notes, from 2,800K all the way to 10,000K, and the introduction of SmartSoft gives users added controls and options for adjustments. This feature (as seen above) let’s you adjust the light’s diffusion, focus, and spread electronically — no need for gels. 

On top of that, since the Titan X2 employs the PentaChromic Colour Engine, it keeps skin tones and colors accurate throughout shooting, eliminating additional work in post-production. 

The new release also comes loaded with more than 16.7 million colors that are available in seconds, 1,300 gels, and five lighting modes, including CCT, HSI, RGBW, XY, and Filter, further expanding your entire color library. 

Rotolight’s CineSFX suite (which includes options for fire, lighting, cycle, police, gunshot, film, neon, fireworks, paparazzi, pulse, and more) is built-in, and can easily be saved as customized settings to quickly recall. 

Studio and portrait photographers can take advantage of the unit’s High Speed Sync flash (1/8000th) that boasts zero recycling time and wireless triggering capabilities for added flash options.
