About the QuartzColor Arturo 1
The QuartzColor Arturo 1 is a 1250W studio softlight designed and manufactured in Italy, positioned as part of a range covering 1250W, 2500W and 5000W operation. Its secondary reflector optical system provides shadowless indirect fill light, while asymmetric beam distribution ensures constant, even illumination across the subject area. The fixture accepts 189 mm linear tungsten halogen lamps at 1250W, 1000W or 625W via an R7s lampholder, and operates across a supply voltage of 120 to 240V. Supplied in black with a colour frame, stirrup and 28 mm spigot, it is available in manual or pole-operated versions, with optional eggcrate accessories for additional beam control.
