paradoxism Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 I think that the Zooms are reasonable little lights, fixed 40 degree beams have their place in certain applications. They give off a reasonable light for the age of the optics and the power of the lamp - but w9ould always run them with 650W lamps and take some time to align them. Larger beam angles are useful for animation effects etc where you don't necessarily want a particularly bright light. They project gobos reasonably, fit well in a small theatre or school environment, and can be picked up cheaply secondhand. To get spares I would check ebay and used lighting and buy a few cheap used units and take them apart. If asked to replace some (again in a school or small venue application) I would probably look to get something like a Source 4 Junior these days. What exactly do you want to know? Not a lot to say about them really - they're older lanterns that generally do the job they were designed for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louis sullivan NLS Posted March 23, 2009 Author Share Posted March 23, 2009 just interested in any comments people have of them. they seem reasonable on size and optics.they are a pain to clean lenses on the older ones as you have to take front then sides of.......etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
