Rosco launches the Silk 210 LED luminaire designed for cinema and television

The new soft lighting system offers a combination of color quality, power and efficiency.

Rosco has introduced its new Silk 210 soft LED lighting system designed for film and television lighting.

Silk 210 offers a combination of precision color quality and powerful output in an ergonomic and efficient form factor.

Suitable for television, film studios or outdoor lighting, this lightweight system includes daylight-balanced LEDs and broad-spectrum tungsten, allowing it to be dimmed to temperatures between 2800K and 6500K.

Independent tests have measured the color quality of Silk 210 giving it a TLCI rating of 97, and a CRI of 98 at 3500K, resulting in natural skin tones and vivid on-camera scenic elements. The portable and versatile device is powered and compatible with Anton Bauer or V-Lock batteries.

Other features of this new Rosco proposal are its high power (2400 lux @ 1m @ 5600k), its smooth and flicker-free dimming, the use of DMX and local control and the wide range of accessories available.

David Amphlett, director of product development at Rosco, director of photography and designer of Silk 210, highlighted that "in developing Silk 210 I wanted to offer Rosco a lighting system that cinematographers and television professionals would need again and again. We have worked tirelessly to develop a projector with unparalleled color quality, and more importantly, a robust and easy to apply light. Thanks to this lighting system, lighting professionals will no longer have to choose between color quality and a soft lighting result. “Silk 210 offers a strong solution.”
