ARRI SkyPanel X21 Modular LED Panel: Compact Power and Precision for Creative Lighting
The ARRI SkyPanel X21 is a highly versatile and compact modular LED panel designed for professional lighting applications. Building on the renowned SkyPanel technology, the X21 offers a bright and even light output, full-color RGBACL control, advanced connectivity, and a modular design that allows for flexible configuration and scalability. Its small size and powerful capabilities make it an ideal choice for tight spaces, on-location shoots, broadcast studios, and creative lighting designs where precision and portability are paramount.
Bright and High-Quality Light in a Small Form Factor:
Despite its remarkably compact dimensions, the SkyPanel X21 delivers impressive, high-quality light output. Its carefully engineered LED array and diffusion optics produce a soft and uniform illumination that is flattering for talent and minimizes unwanted shadows. The X21 boasts excellent color rendition and consistent output, ensuring reliable performance for a wide range of projects.
Modular Design for Ultimate Adaptability:
The core strength of the SkyPanel X21 lies in its modularity. Individual LED panels can be seamlessly connected and configured in various arrays and shapes, empowering lighting professionals to create custom light sources precisely tailored to their needs. From small, intense highlights to elongated linear sources or compact area lights, the X21’s modularity offers exceptional flexibility in shaping and directing light in even the most challenging environments.
Full-Color RGBACL Engine for Unmatched Color Control:
The SkyPanel X21 incorporates ARRI’s advanced full-color RGBACL (Red, Green, Blue, Amber, Cyan, Lime) LED technology. This sophisticated color engine provides an exceptionally wide color gamut and precise color accuracy across the entire correlated color temperature (CCT) spectrum. The addition of Lime significantly enhances output and improves skin tone rendering, while Amber and Cyan expand the creative possibilities for nuanced color mixing and matching any desired hue.
Precise Color Temperature Adjustment and Calibration:
The SkyPanel X21 offers precise control over the white light point, with a color temperature range spanning from 2,000K to 20,000K. It also features full minus green/plus green correction, ensuring accurate color matching with existing light sources and achieving the perfect spectral balance. Each SkyPanel X21 panel undergoes individual factory calibration, guaranteeing consistent color output across multiple units and diverse configurations.
Comprehensive Connectivity and Control Options:
The SkyPanel X21 is equipped with a wide array of connectivity options for seamless integration into professional lighting workflows. These include Ethernet ports for IP-based control (Art-Net and sACN), wireless DMX (CRMX), and traditional 5-pin DMX connectors. This advanced connectivity allows for precise and reliable control over color, intensity, and dynamic effects, whether managing a single panel or a complex, custom-built array.
Ultra-Compact and Lightweight for Maximum Portability:
The SkyPanel X21’s ultra-compact and lightweight design makes it exceptionally easy to transport, rig in tight spaces, and handle in various shooting scenarios. Its small footprint is ideal for mobile lighting kits, gimbal setups when configured in smaller arrays, and any situation where minimizing weight and maximizing maneuverability are critical.
Seamless Integration with ARRI Ecosystem:
The SkyPanel X21 seamlessly integrates with ARRI’s extensive ecosystem of lighting control software and accessories. This allows for intuitive control and management of the panel alongside other ARRI lighting products, streamlining workflows and unlocking enhanced creative possibilities within a unified lighting environment.
