ARRI - M8 High Speed Set

Description

ARRI M8 High Speed Set includes lamphead ARRI M8, EB 575/800 Highspeed Ballast (L2.76184KH), 4-leaf barndoor, spillring, head-to-ballast cable.

The M8 is the smallest lighting fixture in ARRI’s highly successful M-Series of HMI lampheads.

Like the rest of the M-Series, the M8 is equipped with MAX Technology, a unique, patented reflector design that unifies the advantages of a Fresnel and a PAR fixture.

The combination of an open face design and the unrivalled efficiency of the MAX reflector makes the M8 exceptionally bright. The light output produced by its 800 W lamp comes close to the output from a 1200 W Fresnel or PAR (with lens).

The unit can be focused between 15° and 62° just by turning the focus knob, producing a remarkably even light field and a crisp, clear shadow.

By eliminating the need for bulky, easily breakable spread lenses, the M8 will speed up workflows on set.

Compact size and incredible light output makes it portable instruments for a wide range of applications. Housing with cross-cooling system ensures safe operation, even when the device is tilted at an angle of 90°.
