Vara-Light™ Shakespeare® Zoom Ellipsoidals Ellipsoidal Luminaire

The Shakespeare® Series Zoom Ellipsoidals are the state of the art in variable focus theatrical luminaires for function, style, and efficiency. These ellipsoidals have been designed and engineered with a number of innovative details and features enhancing versatility and efficiency without sacrificing performance. The dichroic coated glass reflector removes heat from the beam, resulting in longer gel and pattern life.

The super smooth, variable focus lens system, which operates with Teflon bearings on stainless steel guide rails, produces wide-to-narrow beams offering a sharp, full field and distortion free pattern projection.

The generous accessory slot, the two slot accessory holder, and self-closing, self-locking retaining latch for the accessory holder are just some of the special features provided.

The aesthetic appearance and ergonomically designed function controls only add to its appeal. With a wide range of non-proprietary lamps to choose from, the low wattage, high output Shakespeare® Zooms are ideal for theater use.
