With a heat-resistant construction and 47" diameter, the Para 133HR Reflector F Kit from Broncolor allows users to produce precise, efficient lighting using tungsten fixtures up to 2000W. The reflector's parabolic shape and silver interior yield very high light efficiency, wrapping the subject in brilliant light which emphasizes detail and due to the calculated parabolic form of the reflector, light fall-off only occurs at the Para's extreme edge. This kit features a focusing tube for use with Broncolor's adapter system, enabling use with a wide range of lights. Additionally, it comes with a rolling travel bag. This system's focusing tube can also be swapped out for an FT tube for use with the FT lighting system.



The FT System revolves around the ability to pair a continuous light source with Para parabolic reflectors, using dedicated focusing rods for adjusting the light output. The included HMI FT1600 Lamp Head, along with the connected ballast, attaches to the rear of the optional focusing rod while the Lamp Device with bulb and counter reflector attach to the front of the rod. The HMI FT1600 also permits 100-50% dimming control with consistent colour, is flicker-free to suit video and high-speed shooting applications, and has a CRI of 95+.
What makes the Para unique is the system's ability to focus or defocus the rear-firing light head via a central column. Focusing the beam by moving the head away from the reflector's centre gives you a hard, highly directional output, somewhat like a large spot. Defocusing the beam by moving it toward the apex of the parabolic reflector allows the segmented Para to fracture the light into 24 smaller sources that soften the output while maintaining a crisp textural quality.
