Description
The Aputure CF16 Motorized Fresnel with Barndoors (Rolling Case Kit) delivers professional-quality motorized optical beam shaping in a heavy-duty, high-output glass fresnel package built for modern content creators, filmmakers, photographers, livestreamers, and high-end studios. Engineered for high-wattage point-source LEDs, the CF16 Fresnel transforms raw illumination into a punchy, variable beam with smooth falloff and crisp, cinematic shadow rendition.
Designed to serve as a long-throw key light, hard sun projector, or precise accent source, the CF16 Motorized Fresnel provides automated beam adjustment directly from DMX consoles or mobile apps. Whether you’re filming high-budget commercials, multi-person studio soundstage setups, narrative cinema, or broadcast livestreams, the CF16 Motorized Fresnel is built to perform wherever creativity takes you.
Bright, Compact & Ready Anywhere
The CF16 Fresnel is engineered for demanding production environments where adjusting overhead or high-rigged lights manually is unsafe or inefficient. Featuring an integrated motorized drive, lighting technicians can continuously adjust focus without climbing ladders or lowering C-stands, saving critical time on set while keeping workflows fast and safe.
Adjustable Motorized Spot-to-Flood Beam Control
Quickly adapt to any scene with a versatile motorized beam angle range continuously tunable from a tight spot to a wide flood. The high-precision motorized internal mechanism executes smooth linear movement, allowing precise beam adjustments or dynamic focal sweeps during active camera takes.
Professional Colour Accuracy & High-Transmission Glass Optics
Accurate color rendering and crystal-clear output are paramount for cinema production. Built with a custom 16-inch high-transmission glass Fresnel lens, the CF16 maximizes lux output while preserving the pure CCT, spectral fidelity, and color rendering of your LED light fixture without introducing color fringing or optical distortion.
Intelligent Wireless Control & Remote Focus
Integrate the CF16 Motorized Fresnel seamlessly into advanced set environments. Featuring full integration with Sidus Link app control, CRMX, and DMX512 protocols, gaffers and board operators can control focus speed, fine-tune beam angles, and map custom focus cues remotely alongside their primary fixture controls.
Quiet Performance for Video Production
An ultra-quiet motorized drive combined with optimized heat dissipation vents ensures smooth lens movement and efficient airflow around high-output LED heads, keeping motor noise and active cooling fans virtually silent during audio-sensitive dialogue takes.
Built-In Lighting Effects Support
Enhance dynamic lighting effects—such as Searchlight sweeps, Lightning, or Sunset transitions—by pairing motorized beam movement with light fixture effects to create realistic, motion-driven practical illumination.
Universal Mount Compatibility & 8-Leaf Barndoors
Equipped with Aputure’s heavy-duty ProLock mount and standard Bowens S-mount compatibility, the CF16 securely locks onto high-wattage point-source lights. Included 8-leaf metal barndoors allow tight control over light spill, shaping beam edges to cut clean contrast lines across studio sets.
Portable Power & Travel Protection
Take heavy-duty optical focus on location. The CF16 Motorized Fresnel kit comes complete with a custom rolling flight case designed to protect the motorized lens, 8-leaf barndoors, and accessories during shipping, travel, and rugged production use.
