SEKONIC RELEASES THE ULTIMATEWIRELESS COLOR CONTROL TOOLTokyo, Japan – September 16, 2014 – Sekonic Corporation, Light Meter Sales Department,
announced today the official release of the SPECTROMASTER C-700 and C-700Rspectrometers. The SPECTROMASTER C-700 series leads the way for Sekonic to enter into a
rapidly diverse and changing lighting industry with ultra-precise color measuring instruments
specifically designed for the CINE and Photographic industries.
The new SPECTROMASTER C-700 series are the world’s first*1
stand-alone spectrometers that measure every light source (LED,HMI, Fluorescent and the natural light spectrum) PLUS wirelessFlash (C-700R only compatible with PocketWizardⒸ wirelesssystem). In addition, with its CMOS linear image sensor, theSPECTROMASTER C-700 series make it possible to measure in
1 nanometer (nm) increments, capturing spikes in light source
output, especially LED’s and fluorescent, providing unmatchedcolor measurement accuracy. Through its sophisticated CMOS
sensor and advanced software, a wide range of color
temperature readings can be measured from 1,600 to 40,000
Kelvin (K).
With its intuitive large (4.3” color dot matrix LCD) color touch
screen, the SPECTROMASTER C-700 series offers easy
navigation through spectral distribution screens, lighting
comparisons, Color Rendering Index (CRI) color data and much more. It is also the first
spectrometer to measure wireless flash providing color and light output data. Flash units canbe triggered up 30 meters (100 feet) or more using the PocketWizard wireless triggeringsystem. Any flash can be triggered and measured with a touch of the meters measuring
button.
In a recent interview, Mr. Lorenzo Gasperini (International Sales Manager, USA), stated that“the gap between still and motion capture has narrowed considerably, and both are facedwith the same choices and challenges of conventional and emerging light sources. TheSPECTROMASTER C-700 series is the link that bonds the camera with any type of lightsource, especially LED for color control that’s both necessary and demanded by pros
worldwide.”
Reproducing colors as they appear in reality has always been the essential goal and dreamin photography and cinematography since its inception. Today’s digital shooters remainunchanged in their desires to control color precisely, while the diversity of light sources
grows. The challenges of these current and emerging light sources, in particular LED’s, isgrowing rapidly and so is the complexity to control the color out of them. Sekonic respondedwith the sophistication of a spectrometer that not only measures LED but also wireless flash
in an affordable and user-friendly package
