ADJ's Popular Profile Pro Series Expands with Two New Zoom
Lens
ADJ introduces EP lens 2550Z (25 - 50°) and EP lens 1530Z (15 - 30°) for efficiency and flawless
lighting output
Two new high-definition zoom lens options are now available for ADJ's popular encore profile
pro WW
and encore profile pro color ellipsoidal theatrical lighting fixtures. The new EP lens 2550Z (25
-
50°) and EP lens 1530Z (15 - 30°) make these already versatile fixtures even more
convenient to use,
allowing for field angle adjustments to be made quickly and easily without the need to swap lens
assemblies.
Both lenses have been meticulously designed and precision engineered to ensure maximum efficiency
and flawless output. Their optical systems each incorporate a plano-convex aspheric front lens,
combined with a bi-convex aspheric rear lens, which have both been treated with an anti-reflective
coating. In addition to manual zoom, the lenses also offer manual focus control, allowing adjustment
of the beam edge from soft to hard.
The lens movement is designed to be smooth and effortless, allowing for easy adjustment with just
one hand. This enables a single user to simultaneously set the field angle and focus, ensuring a
quick and efficient workflow. 20-gauge stainless steel 4-blade shutter assemblies allow for
meticulous sharpness without any halation. In addition, on the front of the lenses are sturdy gel
frame holders, each with two accessory slots and a top mounted, quick release, electroplated black
gel frame retainer.
As with the Encore Profile Pro fixtures themselves, these new zoom lens models feature a robust
construction designed to withstand the rigors of busy theaters, touring productions, and event
rentals. The tough barrels are finished with a thick matt black powder coating, and they feature
high impact, thermally insulated knobs and shutter handles.
"Since their launch three years ago, the LED-powered Encore Profile Pro WW and Encore Profile Pro
Color ellipsoidals have proved to be extremely popular for installation projects in theaters,
churches and concert halls, as well as for rental and event production applications," comments ADJ
USA's Director of Sales, Alfred Gonzales. "However, we are always listening to our customers and
recognized the desire for zoom lenses to provide Encore Profile Pro users with added versatility.
Offering excellent build quality and optical clarity, the EP 2550Z and EP 1530Z allow the field
angle to be changed quickly and easily at any time without the need carry multiple fixed angle
lenses."
The Encore Profile Pro ellipsoidal fixtures offer the power-saving and heat-reducing benefits of LED
without compromising on performance or features. Utilizing a potent 260W warm white LED light engine
with a color temperature of 3200K, the Encore Profile Pro WW generates an even field of light, with
no hot spot, and boasts a high CRI more than 97. Alternatively, the Encore Profile Pro Color
features a 250W 6-in-1 RGBWAL LED engine, which can be used to generate a huge gamut of colors
ranging from vibrant primaries to subtle hues through independent dimming control of the red, green,
blue, white, amber and lime LED elements. It can also be used to generate color-corrected white
light, with a macro function providing easy selection of a range of different Kelvin color
temperatures and offers a CRI more than 90.
