The Diva-Lite is a soft light source ideally suited for Television or Film documentary shooting styles. The units provide a broad soft and diffused light.
As a cosmetic light source, they are ideal for news presenters reporting from locations around the world. Their compact size and rugged lightweight nature make them well suited for travel.
The Diva-Lite puts out a broad soft wash of light. The drop off is like the light off of a bounce card. For this reason it is most effective in close proximity to the subject.
By being close, the light is softer and more easily controlled with the built-in barndoors and detachable louvers.
This instrument is proving to be very popular for interviews. It is small enough to travel easily, yet light enough to rig onto lighting stands or grip arms. An interview can be done with as little as a single Diva-Lite 400 and a bounce card.
Diva-Lites operate on Kino Flo True Match 55 watt compact fluorescent lamps. Daylight balance (KF55) and tungsten balanced (KF29) lamps are available.
Light level control is established through an on-board dimmer, as well as by 2 and 4 lamp switching. An in-line power switch controls the power. Louvers provide control over the spread of the light.
