5-colour LED for more faithful reproduction of natural light
Sun Dragon’s affordability and flexibility doesn’t come at the cost of performance. The rope light is made from densely packed LEDs for an even light, end to end. It’s punchy, powerful and has an output close to the full sun spectrum. That means you can rely on Sun Dragon to give you authentic HDR colors and brightness.
The advanced RGBAW design of 5 different colored LEDs – red, green, blue, amber, and white – combined with Atomos’ precision electronic control allows for nearly any hue on the color wheel to be mixed during operation.
A CRI Ra of 97 (Color Rendering Index) and TLCI of 96 (Television Lighting Consistency Index) ensure faithful entire light sun spectrum reproduction. This accuracy means that no correction is needed in post-production, saving you time and money.
Sun Dragon’s unique, high density LED arrangement produces an outstanding brightness profile in an incredibly small form factor. With a diameter of just 3cm, Sun Dragon emits an unbelievable 2000 lumens of illumination (less lumens for 30% diffused version), end to end. The super-flexible 30cm radii bend of Sun Dragon means the intricate shaping of light is now in the hands of the creative. This is all achieved with just 80W of power, provided by battery or AC mains.
Waterproof to 1m, rain and dustproof in all weather
To ensure that there’s no limit to this new-found versatility, Sun Dragon is fully water-resistant and waterproof to a depth of one meter. That means rain, spray and accidental spillage pose no threat to this all-weather light. Whether you’re at the beach or shooting in the desert, Sun Dragon will never let you down.
Lightweight and flexible. Deploy anywhere.
With Sun Dragon, filmmakers can adapt their lighting to any set. Instead of a fixed form, it is a flexible strip of 5-color LED lights. It’s easy to bend Sun Dragon into any shape, carefully controlling reflections and shadows with a precision that’s simply not possible with traditional fixed-shape lighting.
If you want a round source, simply coil the Sun Dragon in a spiral and it transforms into a panel light source. It’s also incredibly lightweight, weighing in at just 1kg.
Connectivity with DMX control devices
Power is nothing without precise control, so Sun Dragon comes with an active DMX controller with a large display to set up brightness, color, hue, and RGB channels, as well and group and gang controls. Sun Dragon is also Bluetooth compatible for future DMX control from iPad and iPhone apps, and can be battery or AC powered.
