Lanterns

The CHIMERA® Lantern introduces practicality and durability to the omni-directional soft lighting realm of the traditional Chinese lantern. This high-tech version of the lantern serves well as a central soft light for round-table interviews and for filling interior shooting spaces with soft, ambient light.

Flatter and more space efficient, the Pancake Lantern, with its innovative, removable, zipper-panel skirt, offers great possibilities for fine-tuning light fall-off. Our Standard Lanterns, still terrific for providing soft fill light, are easy to set up and easy to use.

Lanterns can be set up on any Speed Ring from the Strobe or Video PRO Bank category, but for maximum, omni-directional effectiveness use it on a "bare bulb"-type lighting instrument. Hook & loop-attached skirts can be used to selectively block light. AVAILABLE IN FIVE DIFFERENT SIZES.
