ARRI Orbiter Accessories Tech Talks

ARRI has a few Tech Talks by Senior Product Manager, Markus Klüsenert that go into detail about some of the recent new accessories for the Orbiter.

In the first video, Markus talks about the Orbiter Fresnel Lens 15-65°. In the video, you can learn more about this accessory which creates a precise light spot with a soft single shadow and delivers true Fresnel output with a real Gaussian field of light.

In the second video, Markus talks about the Orbiter Glass Cover. In the video, you can learn more about this small, compact, and lightweight optical accessory for the Orbiter. With its ultra-translucent glass, the Glass Cover allows for full, unrestricted light output without impacting color temperature or quality. It is ideal for near-distance applications with limited available space where much light is needed.

In the third video, Markus talks about the Orbiter’s Color Sensor. The Orbiter includes an integrated color sensor for measuring and matching the ambient light. In the video, you will learn how to use the color sensor.

In the fourth video, Markus talks about the Orbiter Bag-o-Light. This accessory by Licht-Technik is ideal for close-up applications in motion picture and photography where soft light with almost no shadows is required. This accessory, looking like a huge tube, transforms the light output from the standard 15° Open Face optic on the Orbiter into beautiful soft light.

In the fifth video, Markus talks about the Orbiter’s Dome Mini. This accessory provides great quality omnidirectional light at a high intensity. Compared to the Dome optic, the Dome Mini is a compact version; smaller and therefore lighter. The highly translucent material keeps the light output loss to a minimum compared to the usually larger, cloth-based domes. The light it produces is great for near-distance applications with limited available space.

In the final video, Markus talks about the Orbiter’s Docking Ring. This accessory enhancement expands the lighting designers’ and DP’s toolbox even further. The new tool allows for the application of already-owned third-party optics on the Orbiter as an alternative to ARRI optics while still benefiting from the quality and power of ARRI lighting.
