Profile movers for a £1000 each?

[jason5d]

I operate lights at a local venue with some old Imove 250 and 575 moving heads which are failing.

 

I'm looking at possible new replacements for £1000ish each

 

The Cameo Aura z300 looks ok and is in budget

It is a bit obscure - brand wise, we get visiting lighting engineers who bring big lighting desks and

floor packages so it would be good to improve the work flow with lights that are already in their control desks.

 

I have had good results with Cameo led par ligts

 

any suggestions regarding other fixtures or perhaps a used option?

A natural successor to your iMoves is the Evora series by eLumen8. (It's a different brand/label but the same people behind it)

 

I'm a dealer for them, and have some of the Zoom 850 models going into an installation this week. They're quite punchy for the physical size and cost. Crucially, there are personalities available for Avolites, Chamsys, and Zero88 so incoming engineers shouldn't have a problem getting them up and running.

 

Unless you're comfortable doing your own maintenance I'd steer clear of second-hand moving lights, especially those with discharge bulbs which have much more problems with heat/UV on the innards.

I agree... I used to be a Martin approved repairer and it was all discharge lamps.

Cameo is a brand of Adam Hall , famous for their master/ slave labelling on lites in simpler times.
