This comprehensive kit includes the robust HMI F800 Lamphead, a precision-engineered bulb, a state-of-the-art Ballast Unit, and a PAR Reflector complete with four interchangeable lenses, ensuring you're equipped for any lighting scenario.
Crafted for both studio and on-location work, the HMI F800 continuous light lamp offers an exceptional high light output that is essential for capturing the finest details. The innovative bayonet system is a hallmark of the brand, allowing for swift and secure attachment of a variety of reflectors. This feature enables you to tackle every task with professional finesse, whether you're seeking a soft area light with a Softbox or a Para, or a more intense hard point source using an Open Face reflector or Fresnel lens.
The versatility of the HMI F800 is further enhanced by its compliance with protection class IP 54, making it a reliable choice for outdoor use in all weather conditions without the need for additional protection. The PAR reflector, known for its high light output and narrow light angle, is perfect for direct or bounce lighting techniques, and can be used with a PAR or Fresnel lens to achieve diverse light characteristics and shapes.
Equipped with a focusable daylight bulb, the HMI F800 lamphead, when paired with the PAR reflector, also boasts ingress protection to IP 54 standards. The kit's centerpiece, the HMI 400.575.800 ballast unit, offers 100-60% dimming capabilities and operates flicker-free, ensuring consistent lighting for high-speed captures.
The ballast unit is not only splash-proof with an IP 43 rating but also features an automatic voltage detection circuit that can handle a range from 90 V to 265 V at 50/60 Hz, accommodating global electrical standards. Its patented temperature control system guarantees safe and reliable operation, even in extreme ambient temperatures.
For optimal light control and shaping, the PAR reflector comes with four distinct PAR lenses, allowing you to fine-tune the light yield to your specific needs. The HMI F800 lamphead's broncolor bayonet system ensures a seamless and secure mounting process for these optional reflectors, making it a breeze to switch between lighting setups.
In summary, the HMI F800 PAR Kit is not just a lighting solution; it's an investment in professional-grade equipment that promises to elevate the quality and versatility of your photography and filming projects.
