Our Lighting Categories and Brands
At Cinegear, we offer a wide variety of lighting solutions to meet the diverse needs of filmmakers. From powerful LED panels to classic tungsten lights, our inventory covers all major categories of film lighting equipment. Here’s an overview of the types of lights we provide and the top brands available for rental:
1. LED Lighting Solutions
LED lights have revolutionized film production with their energy efficiency, versatility, and ability to deliver consistent color temperatures. They are lightweight, portable, and often dimmable, making them ideal for both studio and on-location shoots.
ARRI SkyPanel Series: The ARRI SkyPanel is one of the most popular LED soft lights in the industry. Known for its wide color temperature range (2800K-10,000K) and RGBW capabilities, it can create a vast array of colors and lighting effects. The SkyPanel S60-C is a go-to choice for many filmmakers due to its high output and soft light quality.
ARRI Orbiter: The ARRI Orbiter is a cutting-edge LED fixture with a six-color light engine (RGBACL) that offers outstanding color accuracy across its entire CCT range. Its modular design allows for various accessories to shape and modify light output, making it perfect for complex lighting setups.
Aputure Nova P600c: Aputure has made a name for itself with innovative LED lights like the Nova P600c. This RGBWW panel offers exceptional brightness and pixel control, allowing filmmakers to create dynamic lighting effects with ease.
Litepanels Gemini 2×1: Known for its excellent color rendition and flicker-free performance, the Litepanels Gemini 2×1 soft panel is ideal for high-speed shooting or scenes requiring precise color control.
Quasar Science Rainbow 2: Quasar Science’s tube lights are perfect for creating practical lighting setups on set. The Rainbow 2 series features RGBX technology with over a billion color options, making it ideal for music videos or stylized scenes.
2. Tungsten Lights
Tungsten lights have been a staple in film production for decades due to their warm color temperature (around 3200K) and ability to render skin tones beautifully. These lights are often used in controlled studio environments or for interior scenes where warm lighting is desired.
ARRI Fresnel Lights: ARRI’s tungsten fresnel lights are known for their durability and ability to produce sharp shadows with adjustable beam angles. They range from smaller 300W units to powerful 5K fresnels that can light large sets or outdoor scenes.
3. HMI Lighting
HMI (Hydrargyrum Medium-Arc Iodide) lights are ideal when high output is required without generating excessive heat. They are commonly used to simulate daylight on set due to their color temperature of around 5600K.
ARRI M-Series HMIs: ARRI’s M-Series combines the advantages of HMI technology with parabolic reflectors to create highly efficient daylight sources. These lights are perfect for outdoor shoots or when you need to replicate sunlight indoors.
4. Fluorescent Lights
Fluorescent lights are energy-efficient and produce soft, even light that is ideal for close-ups or interviews where harsh shadows need to be avoided.
Kino Flo Systems: Kino Flo has long been synonymous with fluorescent lighting in film production. Their systems offer adjustable color temperatures and flicker-free operation, making them perfect for both studio work and location shoots.
5. Specialty Lighting
In addition to traditional lighting setups, we also offer specialty lighting solutions that allow filmmakers to get creative with their visuals.
Practical Lights: These include everyday light sources like lamps or ceiling fixtures that are modified for use on set. We provide practical lighting options that blend seamlessly into your scene while maintaining consistent color temperatures.
Rotolight NEO 3 Kit: Rotolight’s NEO 3 kit is an on-camera RGBWW LED system designed for portability and flexibility. It’s perfect for quick setups or smaller productions where space is limited but high-quality lighting is still essential.
