ARRI\u2019s New SkyPanel S-360 is a large-scale LED light that outputs enormous amounts of light with new advancements in LED lighting.<\/h2>\n

In just the last couple of years, we\u2019ve seen drastic improvements in light quality<\/strong> and output with LED\u00a0fixtures. The latest\u00a0ARRI SkyPanel S-360<\/a>\u00a0will be one of the most powerful and controllable LED fixtures<\/strong> on the market.<\/p>\n

Output<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The ARRI SkyPanel’s light output is enormous. SkyPanels already have a reputation\u00a0for the great amount of light output<\/strong> they’re capable of \u2014 coupled with a soft light quality. The S-360 is a giant step forward in the advancement of LED technology<\/strong>. If you\u2019ve worked with a SkyPanel before, you\u2019ve seen\u00a0how great a tool it can be. The SkyPanel 360 offers more output than four SkyPanel S-60s. Check out this statement from ARRI:<\/p>\n

At over 120,000 lumens, the S360-C is one of the brightest LED soft lights on the market. Compared to the S60-C, the S360-C is more than four times brighter and maintains excellent color quality and tunability. Consuming only 1500 watts, the S360-C is twice as bright as a 4,000-watt tungsten soft light and over three times as bright as a 12,000-watt tungsten space light. Achieving an energy efficacy of over 80 lumens per watt, the S360-C is also one of the most eco-friendly LED soft lights available while also being one of the brightest.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\n

Quality <\/strong><\/h3>\n

Soft lighting works on the idea\u00a0that the larger the aperture, the softer quality of light. Inherently, the SkyPanel S-360 features a much larger aperture<\/strong>, thus providing a softer quality light to wrap more around faces and cast softer shadows<\/strong>. The light will also feature a much longer\u00a0throw than its predecessors. According to\u00a0ARRI,<\/p>\n

Soft lights are all about size, the larger the aperture the better. With the S360-C, size has not been compromised. The surface area of the S360-C is over 5.8 times larger than the S60 and produces beautiful soft light in a wide 105\u00ba beam angle. The light will wrap around large objects and throw much farther than the smaller SkyPanels.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Tuneability <\/strong><\/h3>\n

The SkyPanel S-360 features all the same controllability and tuneability<\/strong> that we love from the original SkyPanel line: fully dimmable LEDs<\/strong>, color tunable lights<\/strong>, and the same range of diffusion panels<\/strong> from previous lines. Although this light weighs a hefty 90lbs, with its natural, soft source, it leaves a smaller\u00a0footprint on set<\/strong> compared to a heavily diffused HMI source.<\/p>\n

SkyPanel is one of the only LED soft lights to allow for the changing of diffusion panels in front of the LEDs. This feature is also offered with the S360-C. The diffusion panels are exchangeable and come in Lite, Standard, Heavy, and Intensifier. The Intensifier increases S360\u2019s brightness by 50%, allowing the light to be thrown even farther.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\n

Carbon Fiber Yoke<\/strong><\/h3>\n

One of the unique and exclusive features of the SkyPanel S-360 is the carbon fiber yoke<\/strong>. The carbon fiber yoke features a 50% reduction in weight of the previous stainless steel yoke and provides more strength to the lighting unit.<\/p>\n

The SkyPanel S-360-C is one of the most exciting lighting fixtures<\/strong> to come out in recent years. With its versatility, functionality, and output, it’s bound to become a staple on many sets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
