Who loves the Diva?

Thanks John. I’m ready to throw my Lowell DPs away!!!

Just to follow up on James’ guestion, which I think is a good one – Is there much of a difference in terms of quality of light (softness) in using a large HMI thru a couple layers of diffusion vs. a Kino type fixture?

BTW, I’ve owned a Biax 400 for about a year and it’s been nothing but a positive experience.

Hi all,

I just picked up a pair of diva 400s. I was a little surprised to see the color meter reading on the Osram bulbs kino sent with them. They were supposed to be 3200, and neutral, but read out at 3950, and +6. Pretty far from the rating. Is this something common for biax bulbs?

I had the fixture on for 30 minutes, and at full power.

Anyone have experience to offer? To use these with my Kino 4 bulb, 4′ selects that do read out neutral, I’ll have to gel them. Not something I’d like to do.

Thanks,

Bill

Osram bulbs? Not Kino’s own? What are the specs? Here are Osram Dulux models:
