    dichroic filters

    I'm looking to replace a bunch of R68 in my rep plot with dichroic glass. The thought is that it'll never burn out (at least as long as I care) and that over time I'll save money on the cost of color and labor to replace it. Here's my question. R68 has a transmission of 14% but on the Rosco...

    Automated Fixtures ETC D60 Frustrations

    Well, on their website is this: http://www.etcconnect.com/docs/docs_downloads/datashts/7410L1006_Selador_D60_SpecSht_vF.pdf Look at page 3. It says 25º and 35º lens. I'll grant you that buried on that page is the IES file that shows otherwise, but that is really shady of ETC.As for the color...

When ETC releases the next update for the Ion range, the profile may change and that could change all of the custom colors that I've set. 2. The photo-metric issue is really bad. I took this photo...

    Color libraries for ETC S4 LED on the Element

    We recently purchased 15 D60 Luster+'s and I can tell you that the color calibration is not good at all. We have an ETC Ion running the most current software. All of the colors both from the gel picker and the color wheel tend to be much yellower than they are in reality. Not only that, the D60...

    Fiber Optic Emitter

    I'm looking for recommendations for a fiber optic emitter. It needs to be CMY (not a color wheel), bright (think HMI), and a customizable twinkle or fx wheel. It also needs to be DMX controlled.Thanks!Joshua
