Delivering exceptional brightness and control, the B30 emits 1700 lux at 3.3' with its bare bulb and up to 8500 lux when paired with the optional OCF Magnum reflector. With a versatile bi-color temperature range of 2800K to 7000K and a high CRI of 94, it produces accurate, repeatable daylight and tungsten-balanced light to meet any creative need.
