Chimera

Chimera Pancake Lanterns features a flat-top design that allows the lightbank to be placed higher and closer to the ceiling. This maximizes placement options as well as limiting unwanted overhead bounce from the ceiling. Pancake Lanterns mount to any Chimera Speed Ring for Strobe or Video Pro lightbanks. Fixtures with a with beam angle or fully-exposed bulb/flash tube are recommended for proper illumination of the lantern.

The included skirt attaches to the Pancake Lantern to enable control over the light-spill. With adjustable zippers and velcro on all four sides, the skirt can be rolled up or down to vary light spread from an omnidirectional overhead source to a straight down-light.

Key Features
– Flat top design maximizes overhead space
– Full-diffusion body creates soft 180 degrees of illumination
– Durable high-heat construction

Product Specifications
– Diameter: 35 in / 89 cm
