Dirk Kast, general manager for Elation Europe, comments, "Customers have been asking for wider diffused LED lighting fixtures without losing a lot of output, and our new Lighting Shaping Filters provide an easy, cost-efficient way to attain this. Using one of these filters, you can widen the beam of a narrow beam angle LED par like our Opti Tri 30 and convert it into a fixture suitable for a stage or wall wash."
Elation Light Shaping Filters have been designed to preserve as much power as possible while dispersing light. The Elation products provide up to 92% light transmission, while standard diffusion filters typically transmit only 60% of the light, according to Kast. "Our LSF filters are unique in that they give you a wider beam angle without sacrificing much output, and they also smooth out the beam of any LED fixture that does not have a perfect field of light," he said.
