    Comments about Altman 65Q Fresnel Light:

    You can't expect them to be outstanding quality for the price but they a have a few issues that I think could have been addressed and still kept the cost down.
    1. There is no arm or locking mechanism to hold the gel frames or barndoors in place. These lights were intended to be used in an almost vertical position aiming downward. In this position the barndoors can easily slip out and crash to the floor.
    2. The screw that holds the lens door in place has a lot of play in it so there's a lot of rattling. This is only an issue in between takes when the heater/AC is running and the vibration of it makes them rattle.

    Comments about Altman 65Q Fresnel Light:

    We use about 20 of these Altmans to light our school's stage from overhead. These aren't the most efficient light fixtures, but the price is right. Make sure you're buying the version of this fixture that has your desired power coupling. This one has the standard house plug variety.
