When you need exceptional light evenness and portability,
Ambi's your best choice for
illuminating test transparencies.
Ambi's different because it makes use of an external light source - either a lamp mounted on its stand, or a nearby dedicated light source matching the key light. The illuminant is directed at the adjustable mirror on Ambi's rear side, and light is then transferred through the illuminator's color-corrected diffuser panel to
illuminate the test target. Known for its incredible light
evenness, the Ambi 2 Illuminator is the ultimate companion piece
to DSCs rear lit Combi test charts.

Only Ambi Lets You
Customize Camera Set-Up to Shooting
Conditions.
Because its light source is external, Ambi
lets you alternate between quartz, HMI,
fluorescent, daylight and other illuminants.
Used with different lamp types, Ambi
provides test transparency illumination that
is precisely color-matched to the types of
lighting a camera will encounter.
Setting up a camera's color matrix to
several different illuminants, and then
using the appropriate stored matrix setting
during a shoot, can dramatically improve the
visual quality and consistency of your
images.

Sturdily yet elegantly constructed of extruded-aluminum, stainless steel and Delrin, Ambi sets up in seconds on a standard 5/8" light stand. The optional AmbiStand holds the illuminator and has multidirectional locking wheels. While versatile Ambi is used most often on a stand or sitting on a desk/table or bench, it may also be hung from a studio grid.
