This is one big light source was my first thought. At NAB 2018 the ARRI SkyPanel quite literally lite the show floor. The ARRI SkyPanel has always been known for its tremendous output and large light aperture. Now with ARRI’s new S360-C the SkyPanel has expanded ARRI’s LED soft light range with the largest and brightest SkyPanel 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. Like the rest of the SkyPanel line, the S360-C features include full-color control, lighting effects, wireless DMX built-in, and much more. This is a beast which could replace those M18s some have been using for night exterior street shots.
Great soft light has a lot to do with the size of the source. The larger the source the better the quality and wrap of the light. With the S360-C, size has not been compromised. The surface area of the S360-C is over 5.8 times larger than the S60 and produces beautiful soft light in a wide 105º beam angle. The light will wrap around large objects and throw much farther than the smaller SkyPanels.
