I don't think it's a mini mac, the head seems to be too rounded and I don't think it's anything by Martin. But any more suggestions would be great!

You must be blind. Its a MiniMac without a doubt.

Don't be deceived by the superficial difference in colour. It's the same luminaire.

Horay I called it pat on the back for me. (just kidding) yah I think it is one it just looks to have allot of wear on it like it was bought from a rentle stock

isnt the mini mac one of the most usless fixtures you have everused? I would rather pay the extra 50 dollars in rental and get a mac 250

Yes this is a mini mac the reason why it looks slightly different is firstly the top side of the head is point at the picture and secondly it is an older version of the mini mac, I know there weren’t more than one version but the outer case has changed slightly since they were first released so the photo will look more rounded. ;)

 

Edit: I may be wrong on this as looking at some pics of when I used them they look big and rounded and these were newer lights, so I suspect is just looks nice and thin in the martin pic to attract people to their smallness when actually they are a little chunky and I wouldn’t say they are useless (directed at JonHirsh). It all depends on purpose, ok for theatre they are probably (well are) useless but for discos and restaurants (especially the Maestro version) ect they may be ideal. Just because they are fairly useless for live stage doesn’t mean they aren’t useful for other things what your saying is a bit like saying a parcan is useless for FOH long distance gobo projection but doesn’t mean they aren’t great lights for other purposes such as colour washing ect. :)

Thanks for that Scenemaster and everyone else - it was just the casing. I mean the casing looks the same but it was the 'chunkyness' of it and if you're right about the case slightly changing Scenemaster then that's what probably got me thinking it wasn't a minimac and probably an el-cheapo copy (which isn't always bad depending on what its use is for)
