Used ARRI M8 HMI Lamp Head, Blue/Silver, Bundle with EB 575/800 Ballast, 50' Cable and Barndoor Set

How does the M8 HMI Lamp Head, a compact yet powerful lighting solution from ARRI's renowned M-Series, redefine professional lighting As the smallest fixture in the series, the M8 is engineered with MAX Technology, a patented reflector design that seamlessly merges the benefits of Fresnel and PAR fixtures. This unique technology, coupled with an open-face design, enables the M8 to deliver an extraordinary brightness that rivals the output of a 1,200 W Fresnel or PAR, despite its 800 W lamp.

The M8 HMI Lamp Head offers a versatile focus range between 15 and 60 degrees, adjustable with a simple turn of the focus knob. This feature ensures a remarkably even light field and a crisp, clear shadow, enhancing the quality of your photography or filming. The elimination of easily breakable spread lenses accelerates workflows on set, making the M8 an efficient choice for professionals.

Compact and lightweight, the M8 is designed for portability and versatility. Whether you're shooting in tight, hard-to-reach locations or on a feature film sound stage, the M8 is a reliable tool that adapts to a variety of production needs, from fast-paced documentaries and television series to major movies.

The M8 HMI Lamp Head is compatible with existing accessories from the ARRI True Blue D12 fixture, including barndoors, scrims, and Chimeras, all securely held by the M8's robust tilt lock. The M8 can also be used with existing 575 W, 800 W, 1,200 W, or 1,800 W cables with an international connector (VEAM).

The M8's frosted glass provides a near-perfect, homogeneous field of light without the need for additional diffusion. It also features a CrossCooling system that ensures safe operation even at extreme tilt angles. The electronics housing is strategically placed away from the lamp housing to reduce heat and extend the lifespan of electronic components.

Designed for easy maintenance, the M8 HMI Lamp Head is simple to open. Its IP23 protection class rating makes it suitable for outdoor use, capable of withstanding harsh weather conditions, including driving rain. Experience the blend of durability, high-quality, and professional lighting control with the M8 HMI Lamp Head, a versatile addition to ARRI's M-Series.
