Beam Angle PixelBar
The beam angle is very important for the use of any lighting device. That's why all AX2's come with accessories to alter the beam angle. Without the use of accessories (filters), the 16 independent controllable LED's have a beam angle of 21 degrees. If you prefer a wider beam angle, you can use the 30 degrees filter. Are you looking to get an even wider bundle of light? There is also a 120 degrees diffusor included in the package. The included barn doors give you plenty of options to cut off the lighting beam at the required spot. Thus making sure the light doesn't directly shine into the lens of a camera or the audience of your event. Do you like to know even more about the AX2 LED Pixel Bar? We go further into detail on the
