Chimera Pancake Lantern Softbox with Skirt - Small
Enlarge Image
Close

The Chimera Lantern Softbox is used by still photographers, filmmakers and videographers, for illuminating entire rooms with soft, even light. Choose a Chimera Lantern Softbox according to the size of the room, and your working light fixture.

This is a Pancake Lantern, which takes up less space than a traditional Lantern Softbox. This 21" square, 12" deep Pancake Lantern includes a skirt, which limits the spread of the light output, and adds a dramtic effect between light and shadow.

Required Speed (mounting) Rings are available separately for your light fixture.

Use this size for casting omni-directional lighting for a small room, or as an accent light in a larger room.
Required Speed (mounting) Rings are available separately for many manufacturers' hot lights and strobes.
Single and double Bobinette scrims are available, to diminish the light output.
Size 21" diameter x 12" deep (51 x 30.5 cm)
Shape Hemisphere with square base
Compatibility Hot lights to 400 watts and strobes of any w/s rating
Removable Face No
Removable Baffle No
Accepts Grids Yes- Bobinette Scrims

      Comments about Chimera Pancake Lantern Softbox with Skirt - Small:

      I have used this on several small sets and have found it to be a great tool.
      I have put 213 globes into it and was impressed by it's output. Like all the pancakes it has the skirt and is very adjustable. The only downside is it is a bit tough to put together the first time.
