The Italian lighting company Maxima is starting to roll out its two fixtures. When we saw the Maxima 7 in development last year, there was a lot to be excited about. It's now finally available for pre-order, while the smaller, more indie-friendly Maxima 3 has started shipping. Maxima 7 Maxima 7 is a powerful 10" 5600K LED that punches 45,000 lux at 1m, and with the fresnel reflector, you get 470,000 lux at 1m. It's a 1200W HMI equivalent, has a separate ballast, high CRI/TLCI, a full copper heat sink to keep it cool, an adjustable beam angle, flicker-free dimming, a controllable app available for iOS and Android. It can be your go-to hard light or you can put a softbox in front of it to diffuse the source. Plus, it's light enough to carry around (approximately 20 lbs) and draws only 750W.

The Maxima 7 is priced at €3,990 (approximately $4,772 USD) for the carbon-kevlar body and €4,990 ($5,968) for the all-metal body, and is expected to ship this December. Read More...
