Item Description The portable Diva-Lite series have become the industry's most popular professional cool lighting fixtures for film and video location work. The Diva-Lite 415 boasts the company's trademark modular fixture designs with universal input voltage from 100-240VAC, full-range dimming, switching and remote control features. The Diva-Lite 201 fixtures are portable, versatile units designed for the rigors of run and gun lighting for news or commercial video production. The Diva-Lites run cool, flicker-free and energy efficient at only 1.4A /120VAC (Diva-Lite 415). Diva-Lites can go from nighttime to daytime interiors by switching True Match tungsten for daylight quality lamps. It's like having two set-ups in one! Fixture includes Center Mount, Gel Frame, Louver and built-in barndoors On location, lamps get to full color temperature in three minutes When finished, turn off power and pack. No need for cool down period The lamps can stay in the fixture for quick transport All-in-one design with built-in Dimming Ballast Remote dimmer capability Low amperage draw - can plug in to any household outlet Slim profile ideal for shooting in small offices, hallways or cramped quarters The Universal version with auto-sensing power supply can use anywhere in the world Same fixture uses 55Watt compact 5500K (Daylight) and 3200K (Tungsten) lamps Full spectrum (CRI 95) lamps available in 3200K and 5500K High color rendering True Match lamps work well alongside conventional quartz lights or HMI's Kino Flo 55Watt compact lamps also available in 550nm green and 420nm blue for green and blue screen Color gels do not burn out or fade due to low heat of fixture Center Mount for horizontal and vertical axes rotation Honeycomb louvers 90deg. and 60deg. give tremendous light control The Diva-Lite 415 and 201 are soft light sources ideally suited for Television or Film documentary shooting styles. The units provide a broad, soft and diffused light. As a cosmetic light source they are ideal for news presenters reporting from locations around the world. Their compact size and rugged lightweight nature make them well suited for travel. The Diva-Lite puts out a broad soft wash of light. The drop off is like the light off of a bounce card. For this reason it is most effective in close proximity to the subject. By being close, the light is softer and easily controlled with the built-in barndoors and detachable louvers. This instrument is proving to be very popular for interviews. It is small enough to travel easily. It is light enough to rig onto lighting stands or onto grip arms. An interview can be done with as little as a single Diva-Lite 415 and a bounce card. Diva-Lites operate on Kino Flo True Match 55W compact fluorescent lamps. Daylight balanced (KF55) and tungsten balanced (KF32) lamps are available. Light level control is established through an onboard dimmer as well as by 4 and 2 lamp switching. An in-line power switch controls the power. Louvers provide control over the spread of the light. The Diva-Lite 415 Fixture Built-in dimming ballast Universal input 100VAC-240VAC 4-Lamp/2-Lamp switching Remote dimming Built-in Barndoors Reflector, Louver, Gel Frame True Match daylight and tungsten balanced lamps Electronic Ballast The ballast is designed to provide flicker-free operation under extreme conditions. It is equipped with a voltage controlled input stage. This stage regulates the voltage coming into the ballast and smoothes out any minor or major voltage fluctuations that would otherwise cause a lamp to flicker or vary in light output. This is especially important for location shooting applications where the quality of the electricity is unpredictable. The Diva-Lites are available in three voltage models: 120VAC, 230VAC and Universal 100VAC-240VAC (Diva-Lite 415 only). The Universal models are especially useful for international photographers that travel through many countries. The universal model has a built-in auto-sensing voltage regulator so it can be plugged into voltage ranging from 100VAC-240VAC. The Diva-Lites have been used in very trying circumstances from war torn countries to remote locations where power is very often a small-unregulated generator. The Diva-Lites feature a built-in dimmer control. Lamps can dim from 100% down to 5%. However, it is not recommended that the dimmer be used to adjust exposure levels beyond one f-stop down. As the lamp cools, the color may drift into the magenta spectrum. Under certain conditions this phenomenon may have a positive cosmetic effect; much like using cosmetic gel that is magenta in appearance. To adjust for lower light levels, the Diva-Lite 415 Universal is equipped with a select switch to control 4 Lamp or 2 Lamp operation. Switching off a set of lamps reduces the light by one f-stop. The Diva-Lites come with a 15ft power cord to accommodate putting the unit on a light stand. An in-line power switch located on the power cord controls the power. Center Mount The ball and socket mount is a Kino Flo standard. It allows unlimited fixture orientation and keeps the fixture lightweight. The fixture can operate in either a horizontal or vertical position. It is easily rigged on the end of a grip arm to allow positioning off camera as a backlight for interviews. The Center Mount has a ball and socket design with a lock down handle. To orient the fixture, release the handle, position the fixture, then lock down the handle. At the other end of the Center Mount is a baby receiver (16mm) that can go directly onto a light stand. Example of the Diva-Lite rigged into a mafer clamp with baby pin. Note the eyelet next to the mount is used as a safety point. Example of the baby offset arm centering the weight of the fixture over a light stand or being used as an "Up" light. Light Control Even in the hands of an inexperienced lighting professional, the subject will end up looking good. There will be no sharp shadows that define age in a face. For more softness, adding a Flozier is recommended or in situations where subjects are wearing glasses and the reflection of the lamps may be distracting. The Flozier is cloth material that slips over the front of the fixture and provides a large area of white diffusion. The resulting larger area of diffusion further softens the light. This is especially useful when dealing with reflective subject matter as a means of diffusing the reflection of the lamps in the fixture. The harshness of lamp reflections in glasses is easily avoided. The Flozier is available in two densities, full and half. Honeycomb Louver The spread of the light is controlled by means of thin wall honeycomb louvers. The advantage of these louvers is the minimal loss of light at the center of the beam. The Diva-Lite fixtures include a 90deg. louver. A 60deg. louver is also available as an accessory. They are lightweight and are held to the fixture with Velcro fasteners. The gel frame and louver are attached to the fixture with 4 Velcro straps. The Remote Dimmer DIM-5 is a useful accessory for controlling the light output when you can't reach the onboard dimmer knob. When the remote dimmer is plugged into the fixture, the onboard dimmer is automatically disabled. The dimmer comes with a 15ft extension cable. Clamshell Travel Case The Clamshell Travel cases are recommended for transport in small vehicles or local production trucks. They contain space for the fixture, lamps and a lightweight stand. The clamshell cases hold one Diva-Lite 415 (KAS-D4-C) or one Diva-Lite 201 (KAS-D2-C). Also offered are Stand versions (KAS-D4-CS or KAS-D2-CS). Heavy Duty Flight Case The Heavy-Duty Flight Case is well suited for long distance transport by sea or air. The rugged construction ensures that the fixtures are well protected. The case has room for fixtures, spare lamps and stands. The flight case holds two Diva-Lite 415's (KAS-D42) or two Diva-Lite 201's (KAS-D22). The Lamps Diva-Lites operate on 55W twin tube compact fluorescents. Kino Flo's True Match KF55 and KF32are designed for daylight and tungsten respectively. In 1995 Kino Flo received a Technical Achievement Award from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences in part for the development of its color-correct line of fluorescent lamps. The True Match lamps allow the KF32 to mix seamlessly with regular studio quartz hard lights. The KF55 mixes seamlessly with natural daylight or HMI's. Like other lamps in the True Match family, the 55W Compact's color (CRI 95) is formulated by Kino Flo to match the spectral sensitivity curves of HD and digital film imaging equipment. With its proprietary chemistry, the True Match lamps in a Kino Flo fixture display a unique quality of soft light. The smooth beam gradient responds especially well to the new generation of HD cameras on the set and works side by side with traditional tungsten sources without corrective filtration. The 420nm blue and 550nm green lamps are also available for lighting blue and green screens. The narrow band lamps provide an efficient light source for special effects compositing.
