Quartzcolor Range
This brilliant Quartzcolor range covers every spotlight requirement from the smallest focusing fresnel luminaire rated at 300/500W to powerful 10kW luminaires for the largest studios and productions. In particular, there is a comprehensive choice in the widely used 2000W to 5000W range of luminaires.
Included in this range are luminaires for near shadowless fill lighting with constant colour temperature, top lighting for evenly-illuminated cyclorama, and single or multi-compartment groundrows for additional light at ground level or for graduated colour changes in the cyclorama.
