With nearly a quarter of a century supporting the Swiss Imaging community, and a team of over 30 industry professionals We would like to welcome the Light + Byte team to the Chimera Lighting family.

Boulder, June 2016 -Thanks to Chimera Lighting’s continuing innovation, the company has announced the first ever adapter that allows lightbanks to be used with space lights. This effective and efficient system of pairing space lights with lightbanks now provides cinematographers and lighting professionals with an option previously unavailable—the ability to use a space light as a key light.

Boulder, June 2016—Today, Chimera Lighting announced the first LED Panel Adapter for Octabanks for mounting 5 foot OctaPlus TECH lightbanks on LED panels. Until recently, output from LED panels was only strong enough to work with smaller lightbanks. But thanks to technological advances, the intensity of light from LED fixtures has increased to the point where using them in concert with larger OctaPlus lightbanks is now a viable solution, meeting the demand for a light modifier that increases the light aperture of the fixture.

Boulder, April 2, 2016— As the availability and use of LEDs has grown, so has the need for light modifiers to better sculpt the output from these efficient light sources. Responding to this industry need, Chimera Lighting has created Tech Lightbanks for ARRI’s S30 and S60 SkyPanel LED fixtures. The new Chimera Tech Lightbank series delivers the quality and durability that Chimera is known for.
