and pleasing bokeh both in the foreground and background .

Besides cameras , what other equipment can visitors expect at the ARRI booth ? ARRI : In addition to the brand-new ARRI large-format camera system , we are very excited to demonstrate S360-C , the latest SkyPanel LED soft light , and its complete family range .

The new SkyPanel S360-C has expanded ARRI ’ s LED soft light range with the largest and brightest Sky- Panel to date . Not only is the S360-C powerful , but it is packed full of exciting features , making it one of the most versatile LED fixtures on the market . These features include full colour control , lighting effects on a huge aperture , wireless DMX built in , a unique carbon fibre yoke , and much more . The S360-C is truly a beast of a light .

Soft lights are all about size — the larger the aperture the better . The surface area of the S360-C is over 5.8 times larger than the S60 and produces beautiful soft light in a wide 105 ° beam angle . The light wraps around large objects and throws much farther than the smaller SkyPanels .

At over 120,000 lumens , the S360-C is one of the brightest LED soft lights on the market . Compared to the S60-C , the S360-C is more than four times brighter and maintains excellent colour quality and tuneability . Consuming only 1,500W , the S360-C is twice as bright as a 4,000W tung s ten soft light and over three times as bright as a 12,000W tungsten space light .

SkyPanel has always had a multitude of ways to control the light output : DMX , RDM , Art-Net , sACN , 5-Pin XLR , and Ethernet . The S360-C adds another important communication method , and this does not involve any wires : Wireless DMX by LumenRadio .

Built into every S360-S , the CRMX chip allows for DMX and RDM communication without the hassle of cables and data distribution equipment . Simply link a compatible LumenRadio transmitter to the S360-C and you are good to go . Using the 5-Pin DMX output on the S360-C also allows other non-wireless SkyPanels to be daisy-chained to the DMX network .

SkyPanel ’ s diffusion panels are exchangeable and come in Lite , Standard , Heavy , and Intensifier . The Intensifier increases S360 ’ s brightness by 50 %, enabling the light to be thrown even farther .

As with all ARRI LED lampheads , the S360-C is fully tuneable . Easily

adjust the CCT from 2,800 K to 10,000 K with plus / minus green control and access the full colour gamut with hue and saturation , RGBW mixing , digital gels , source matching , or CIE x , y coordinates . Achieving over 85 % of the colours within the Rec2020 colour space , it is now easy to create the look and colour you want .

SkyPanel Firmware updates are all about adding versatility and control — harnessing the awesome power

of the SkyPanel and putting that potential into the hands of the gaffer , lighting designer , or programmer . SkyPanel Firmware 4 takes this ability to new heights with features such as Extended Colour Control , light engine DMX control , additional lighting effects , Stage Mode , SkyPanel Web Portal , and much more .

Besides cameras and lenses , ARRI is also casting the spotlight on the S360C , the latest SkyPanel LED soft light .
