Product description The heart of the Photogenic 2,000W/s Solair Studio Power Kit (120V) is the Solair 1,000W/s Monolight. Building on the foundation of the popular PowerLight PL2500DR, the Solair has an 8 stop extended power range selectable in 1/2 or 1/10 stop increments with repeat flash accuracy within 1/20 of a stop and all of the information displayed on the large LED screen. The bright 250W modeling lamp can be set to full on/off, user preference or proportionate to the flash power. What distinguishes the Solair however, is Constant Color Technology. It's quite common for other brands' color temperature to vary wildly when dropping from full to minimum power. The Solair varies a mere 100K from full to 1/128 power; indiscernible to most people.Another unique feature is the Flash Auto Bracketing function. Under and over power settings can be programmed into the flash head in 1/10 - 1 ½ f/stop increments around the prime or normal exposure. This kit has everything you need to get started in the studio or on location. It includes two 1,000W/s Solairs, 8.0' light stands, a 24 x 32" softbox, 45" umbrella and umbrella reflector, cables, flashtubes and a rolling case to transport it all.

There is no color shift when powering the Solair up or down. A microprocessor provides consistent power output, preventing Kelvin degree shifts and variances in power output that may have happened on previous Powerlights.All the conveniences and features found on the previous Powerlight DR series are still here, plus the addition of two more stops of variable power, making it an 8 stop range. The UV-Coated flashtube included with this monolight lowers the color temperature to 5500°, which is the color of noon daylight on a clear day.
