Chimera TECH Lightbank for ikan ID1000/v2 LED Lightsis an ideal light shaping tool for narrowing the ID1000 or ID1000-V2's beam and diffusing its output. The lightbank simply slips onto the light's integrated barndoors without support poles or speed rings. The supplied standard 30° Front Lens Screen reduces spill light and provides directional control of the output. Use the included 1/4 and full grid cloths individually with the lens or together for varying degrees of softness.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Does the Chimera 1648 have a silver interior? It appears that the front face is interchangeable. Is there any light loss compared to a bare Area48 (I ask because the DOP choice soft box uses a silver interior to reflect some of the side spill forward and increases the output by 1 stop).

A: The Chimera 1648 No Frame Softbox for BBS Area 48 has a soft silver interior. It comes with two (2) different front screens, one with 1/2 density diffusion and one with 1/4 density diffusion.

Q: 2. Is there an inner baffle that Chimera offers for their other soft boxes that might work with this Universal version?

A: While you may get diffusers of different strengths for the front of the softbox, there are no inner baffles or diffusers designed for use inside the Chimera Universal LED TECH Lightbank (1 x 1').

A: It would not be a good fit for the Timpani.

[Silver] I'm a gaffer and use mine on Litepanels Astras.� I much prefer this to the bag model that litepanels pushes.� It leaves plenty room for the vents and it sets up quicker and folds down smaller.� Someone posted in a review that it covered up the vents., I will post a picture to show otherwise. 5

[Silver] A must with the Rotolight Neo 2. Really evens everything out. 5

Nigel	18/09/2024
[Silver] So far so good ....... gonna try it on an ephoto 1x1 as well and see what happens..... but it softens lights just how i like it 5

Philip	26/08/2024
[Yes] Does a great job of softening the light, fits perfectly, easy on and off, comes with a pouch for storage. 5

Paul	04/08/2024
[Yes] Know that the Rotolight barn doors are necessary to use this. It is not at first obvious that the barn door wings slip into almost invisible pockets that are built into the Chimera. A simple installation note would have been a time-saver. Pleasing quality of light. It would be nice if the Rotolight carry-pouch was big enough to include the barn doors and Chimera folded up. 5

[Silver] Very effective soft box for the Rotolight NEO - be aware that you need to have the NEO barn doors in order to mount this. 5

preditor	17/06/2024
[Yes] Five stars because it's a Chimera and it does what it's supposed to do. It also comes with three different diffusion covers so you have some options. But unlike the classic Chimera that has a frame, hooks into a speed ring, and can go on any light that accepts rings or scrims, this seems like it will only work on the Ikan 576s. There's no frame; it slides over the barn doors of the fixture and uses the built-in gel clips to secure itself in front of the LED bulbs. So if you have a different budget LED light of a similar size and you want this to work it will take some gaff taping. Maybe Chimera has a model for everything. I don't know; I haven't looked. 5

Bwok	11/06/2024
[Silver] LEDs have a pretty nasty look on peoples skin. Plus the light goes eveywhere. This little box truly unlocks the potential of 1x1 Litepanels. 5

Alan	11/06/2024
[Yes] Compact, well made, and effective. Excellent product to go along with the a48. 5

Thomas	25/05/2024
[Yes] Actually used on Socanland 12x12 Bicolor. Fit like a champ. Far more efficient than clipping diffusion to barn doors. Get it! 5
