The other area where these units really shine is color accuracy, which makes sense considering this is what Quasar is best known for.Ī lot of tube lights are just pure RGB, and they use the combination of those RGB LEDs to give white output that is actually very segmented and not coherent. If you are working on a night exterior, for instance, you're still going to see something like an F2 up there around 20 feet, which gives you a ton of room to work with the unit. There are two main headline features with these lights, output and color accuracy. While they have a lot of toolsets in common, so we'll discuss them mostly together, we'll discuss differences down at the bottom as well. We got to use them for a few weeks and walked away impressed. Quasar Science is among the undisputed leaders of LED tube lighting with its Rainbow units, and they are now back with two major revisions, the Double Rainbow (a double-wide rainbow tube) and the Rainbow 2, which is the original width but offers a whole host of revised tools. Not only are they great for tight interior work in cars or small rooms, but they can also be useful on larger and more complicated setups where their ease of use makes them a fast rig when you need just a touch of light. The ability to have a soft source that you can easily mount in a variety of settings, and that outputs all the colors under the sun, offers filmmakers so much flexibility that they show up in all sorts of unexpected places. LED tube lights have fast become an essential part of most filmmakers' toolkits. The leader of tube LED lights revises its units for more punch and more flexibility.
