Glossary
Color Rendering Index (CRI):
A rating system that describes
the effect of a light source on the color appearance of objects
(compared to a standard reference source of the same color
temperature). A rating of 100 is the highest possible CRI.
Typical cool white fluorescent lamps have a CRI of 62.
Lamps with rare-earth phosphors can have a CRI of 80 or higher.
Color Temperature:
The color a light source appears to be,
ranging from reddish (lower color temperatures) to bluish
(higher color temperatures). Measured in degrees Kelvin (ºK).
Diffused Light:
Produces a soft light with soft shadows
while illuminating a relatively large area. Illumination is
indistinct rather than obvious, distinct light beams.
Fill Light:
Supplementary illumination positioned to reduce
or eliminate shadows created by key light.
Flare:
Over-saturation of light that appears when too much
light is picked-up by a camera’s lens and reflected off its
internal glass elements.
Foot Candle (fc):
A measurement of illumination where one
unit is equal to the light of a candle at a distance of one foot.
Glare:
A condition caused by light within the visible field
that is brighter than the level of light to which the eyes are adapted.
Key Light:
The principal directional light. Usually
positioned off-center and angled towards the subject.
Three-point Lighting:
A basic lighting method in which key
light, fill light and back light are all used to illuminate the
subject while providing depth and texture.

lbs (7.6 kg), The Original Hi-Lite units weigh approximately

support more than 50 lbs. All units are shipped with a
supplemental support harness.
Which model is best suited for my application?

needs depends on requirements such as aesthetics, portability
or cost. For example:
Recessed Hi-Lite:
Best for areas where room aesthetics
are paramount, such as high-end boardrooms or
corporate headquarters.

will be needed, such as portable streaming studios or
use with “roll-about systems.”
