The Kisslite ringlight unit clamps onto the barrel of most popular fixed barrel lenses and also features an adaptor clamp for standard Arri 19mm bars and Panavision PV bars. Step down rings are available for most lenses from 112.8mm down to 80mm. The ringlight is powered by a small, lightweight, dedicated power supply unit that accepts power from any 12Vor 24V film or video battery utilizing standard configuration 4-pin XLR. The control box provides flicker-free power and allows individual switching of four-quarter sub-sets - top, bottom, left and right - and dimming from 100% down to 5% without altering colour temperature. The power supply features instant start, at pre-set dim level and full colour temperature.
The Kisslite is an ideal tool for handheld camera work, providing a lightweight beauty light or eye light source, and is also ideal for Steadicam, dolly and crane shots, where a lightweight fill is required without compromising the ambient light quality.
