Les, if you can find out who made and where you can get an ellipsoidal adapter for a PAR 38, I will be happy for long time! had WAY too much trouble trying to match a rack of PAR 38s to blend with texture from a Source 4. Do the inkies work well as a replacement for a PAR 38/make better light?
I will get right on it with the ellipsoidal adapter! Heck, maybe if I can't find them available commercially, I'll look in to an easy(ish) way to manufacture them out of old lighting instrument parts. Stick a shutter gate and lens tube in front of a par 38 and believe it or not, it makes for a controllable and focused beam!
The inkies are great because they're controllable. I'm not sure about how well they perform against par 38's as far as brightness is concerned (I only have the incandescent kind and they are a little dim), but the quarts 100w would probably give the par 38's a good shake.
