Rotolight Anova Pro is the ultimate LED studio/ location light designed for the most demanding of professionals.

Now up to 43% brighter than the previous generation, ANOVA PRO is one of the most versatile LED Studio/location lights on the market, featuring revised electronics, 10% weight reduction, revised yoke design and a new Flash Sync Trigger input for camera shutter release synchronization at up 150% of the maximum continuous light output.

Anova Pro’ s Bi-Colour LED system with AccuColour delivers exceptional colour rendering (CRI:96+), and dual controls for fast, tunable colour thanks to the accurate colour temperature display (CCT).

The Anova PRO features five patented, industry-first features which save significant time and money, whilst enabling greater creativity for Directors of Photography (DOPs) and cameramen in studio or on location:

• CINESFX - is a powerful suite of customizable Lighting FX (CineSFX™) for Television production and feature film applications. These include all the common lighting effects that gaffers and DOPs are frequently required to recreate on set, from fire, lightning, TV, film, neon and spark simulation, to more novel effects, such as police, paparazzi and gunshot visual effects. CineSFX™ eliminates the need for legacy ‘flicker box’ workflows, saving significant time and cost to achieve powerful lighting FX, and can also be used with a wireless trigger for remote control.
  
  By eliminating the need for legacy ‘flicker box’ workflows, the Anova PRO’s CineSFX™ saves significant time and cost whilst providing powerful lighting effects for use by independent productions, broadcast/television studios and filmmakers. Each effect is completely customisable and features a digital display, enabling precise reproduction of complex lighting effects.
  
  
• FX SLAVE™ - enables the CineSFX ™ effects to be slaved to up to 512 third party light sources in real time with zero latency to create powerful lighting effects for large scale productions. Utilising Anova PRO’s new FX Slave™ feature enables up to 512 third party light sources (including previous generation Rotolight Anova lights) to be ‘slaved’ via DMX. The light sources are able to be controlled directly by the single Anova PRO to deliver the specified CineSFX™ mode but with no latency, and at the same intensity and colour temperature.  This allows detailed lighting effects to be reproduced with ease for large scale productions and feature films, as well as for smaller scale productions, whilst enabling studios to add to the existing functionality of existing lighting systems by adding Anova PRO to their inventories.
   
• TRUE APERTURE DIMMING - calculates and displays the correct aperture (F-Stop) for your subject at a given distance, revolutionizing your workflow by eliminating the need for metering. Alternatively, dynamically adjust your brightness level, to work at your desired aperture (F-Stop).
   
• DESIGNER FADE - mode provides custom fade up / fade down interview/ production effects for DSLR videographers and creative cinematographers, reducing time required in post production.
   
• HIGH SPEED SYNC FLASH (HSS) - synchronizes your Anova Pro to your camera shutter release and provides a powerful HSS flash with zero recycle time at 150% of the maximum continuous light output for traditional photographic workflows. Flash Sync and remote triggering allows Anova Pro to be integrated into a traditional photography workflow, whilst providing a hyper-accurate modelling light, along with control of flash power/duration colour temperature and offset, combining the advantages the best of both legacy strobe technology and continuous ‘shoot what you see’ light output.

Powered by V-Lock or mains power, ANOVA delivers a powerful output (up to 6545 Lux at 3 feet), whilst using 94% less energy than a standard tungsten bulb. Anova Pro delivers unparalleled versatility, superior colour rendering and gorgeous soft light output and is ideal for cinematographers, videographers and photographers alike.

Anova Pro delivers unparalleled versatility, superior colour rendering and gorgeous soft light output and is ideal for cinematographers, videographers and photographers alike. Available in either Bi-Colour (6300K-3150K) ‘STANDARD’ 50 beam angle (for greater straight line output),  110 ‘ULTRAWIDE’ (for soft-fill, flood or Chromakey) or fixed colour 5600K.

ANOVA PRO POLAR PATTERN, CRI TEST & TLCI TEST

As Cameras progress to 4K and beyond, lighting with perfect colour reproduction becomes supremely important. To meet this criteria, Rotolight have developed an LED Colour phosphor technology called Accucolour™.

Developed at Pinewood Studios, for the most demanding of professionals. ANOVA PRO™’s Bi-Colour LED system with AccuColour™ technology delivers exceptional colour rendering CRI>96, with skin tones R15 > 99. ANOVA also includes an accurate colour temperature display (CCT).

The soft-light output from ANOVA still reveals crisp skin detail when the light is used for portraiture or interviews, and ANOVA produces that Rotolight signature ‘Ring-Light’ Effect, perfect for artistic ‘Rembrandt Style’ lighting.

With so many in-built features, good colour accuracy and a strong output, it could quite possibly be one of the best bang for your buck LED lights currently on the market."

  Rotolight's solution for rolling shutters and strobing light
  "Rotolight has introduced a product that helps rolling shutter cameras handle stroboscopic light better. As we've discussed a few times here on RedShark, there are problems with stroboscopic light sources on rolling shutter cameras and the results aren't pretty. One solution – the most universal one and perhaps the best overall – is for the industry to move away from the rolling shutter. Another, perhaps more interesting one, is for those flashes of light to be synchronized to the camera, ..."
