The Prodigy Air Head directs airflow from the compressor to clear the lens, deflecting water, dust and debris. The special piece of glass is impact resistant, treated with a superhydrophobic coating to repel water and particles. Replacing the glass only takes a few minutes and requires no special tools.
It accepts up to 3 filter trays and can be set up as clip on or rod mounted. Detach the hose to use it as a standalone matte box with a large field of view. Flat surfaces make it easy to bag the camera for protection with an optional top flag available. (Top Flag not included).
The Prodigy Air Head takes pressurized air from the Compressor through the connected hose and creates barrier over a specially treated piece of glass for a clear lens.
With advanced processes, we can make a glass that is optically clear with no effect on image quality or exposure, and it has excellent impact resistance. Any water or liquid on the surface slides off and doesn't bead up after being treated with a superhydrophobic coating. Spare glass is accessible if it gets damaged or breaks, and replacing it takes only a few minutes.
Built On The Misfit Kick
The Air Head can also be used as a standalone matte box. The large field of view makes it ideal for wide-angle lenses, with the Reveal stage delivering the third stage without the need of any additional accessories. It's light enough to use in a clip on configuration or with rod supports on a 15mm LWS or 15/19 Studio setup.
Compared to spinners, the Prodigy has far fewer moving parts. With no bearings to physically spin the glass, there is less maintenance to do. Constructed from high-grade aluminum, and stainless steel, making it extremely durable, rugged, and waterproof. It can endure any harsh conditions in either hot or cold climates.
