Video PRO and Daylite Junior Lightbanks are introduced. Plus Banks with removable front screens have variable densities. We introduce Fabric Egg Crate Grids. Adjustable Speed Rings for film/video Lightbanks. Dual Block Speed Rings for Quartz and Daylite Banks are a hit. And into the 21st Century The classic Pancake Lantern is introduced. Our Quick Release Speed Rings. We offer two banks in one with the clever OctaPlus 57 Lightbank. Our new Birdcage Lanterns are a truly versatile small light source. Triolet Lights offer continuous light source that adapts from a mogul socket to 2-pin bulb. Chimera Stand Adapters are heavy duty including the unique dual axis version.

PerfecT LIghT fOr cONTINuOus LIghT sOurces


When the best names in film, broadcast and motion pictures want big, beautiful broad light sources, they choose Chimera. Renowned for top quality design and reliability, Chimera has developed innovative fabrics that withstand the rigors of high temperatures. This means more shooting for you and less worry about your equipment. You get the broad-source, diffused light you want - and the lightweight, portable design you require. Chimera Lightbanks are designed with a front recess to control lens flare and come with a soft silver reflective interior and a removable internal baffle. The Plus model comes with three different density front screens -- Standard Diffusion, 1/2 and 1/4 Diffusion. The Plus 1 model includes one Standard Diffusion Front Screen. Video PRO Lightbanks are extremely lightweight and are primarily used with single broad-beamed, open-faced instruments up to 1200 watts. Shallow and Strip versions are available in the Video PRO line. Daylite Lightbanks. An exclusive innovation from Chimera, this series includes Junior, Standard and Senior Banks which have a deep design that is ideal for narrow beam Fresnel lights handling from 1.2K to 24K output ranges. The increased depth allows light to fill the front diffusion screen evenly and increase the output of your light. Quartz Lightbanks are designed to handle the high temperatures of HMI, PAR and tungsten open-faced lights from 1.2K up to 24K output ranges. This family of Lightbanks is the work horse of the industry.

Whether shooting a sophisticated assignment or the basic lighting layout, Chimera offers a wide variety of Lightbanks to transform harsh strobe light into a soft controllable light source. Chimeras Super PRO Strobe Lightbanks come with a standard diffusion front screen and a removable internal baffle. Shallow-depth Lightbanks take up less room and make it easier to work in small spacesmost significantly when working with the medium and large Lightbanks. Strip Lightbanks provide very narrow even lighting for beautiful accents. Super PRO Lightbanks feature a removable recessed front screen to control lens flare, and a choice of silver or white interiors. Standard depth, shallow depth, and strip banks are available. PRO II Lightbanks have a sewn-in front screen that is flush to the edges for a softer edge transfer. PRO IIs come in standard depth and strip bank configurations with white interiors. For photographers shooting both strobe and continuous lights, we suggest using Video PRO Lightbanks. They are more heat resistant and work great with your strobe lights, eliminating the need for two styles of Lightbanks.

The center of the versatile CHIMERA Lightbank System is the Speed Ring, which allows you to connect your Lightbank to a continuous source lighting instrument. Dedicated Speed Rings are uniquely designed to fit a specific lighting fixture. Circular Speed Rings (see chart on pages 40 and 41) are designed to fit the barn door ears of your light. Adjustable Speed Rings are a great solution when you have a variety of lights or an unusual lighting instrument.
