    3 Prism Gobo?

    After doing some research I wasn't able to find anything, and my assumption would be that they do not make one for 2 reasons. Firstly, there is little clearance inside moving fixtures for the thickness that a prism has, and secondly because the gobo wheels are so far back from the lenses that...
