Ellipsoidals

Ellipsoidals

Ellipsoidal spotlights produce a high intensity sharp or soft edged beam. While primarily designed for theatre and studio applications, ellipsoidals are also useful in displays, show windows, museums and nightclubs where precision controlled accenting is desirable.

Ellipsoidals are the primary instrument for pattern projections.

ETC Source Four

Source Four – the ellipsoidal spotlight that changed the lighting industry. Smaller, lighter and much brighter than conventional 1000W ellipsoidals, Source Four sets the standard. Source Four’s clean white beam means excellent imaging, for crisp pattern projection and smooth washes. Source Four’s interchangeable lens tubes fit any application, and its rotating barrel puts your cuts just where you need them. This instrument is equipped with cool beam technology which means gobos and shutters last longer and performers are more comfortable on stage. Easy focusing and tool-free lamp adjustment save on valuable load in time, and energy and air conditioning costs are cut by over 40%. This fixture uses an HPL 575 watt lamp.
