Anton Bauer ELIGHTZ

Cameras may get smaller. But available light doesn't change.  When light comes from above it creates unwanted shadows that are accentuated in a video  picture - regardless of the camera's low light efficiency. An on camera light is an essential tool for professional interview video.

Anton/Bauer's UltraLight is the choice for on-camera lighting on more cameras around the world than any other ENG light. But to use an Ultralight with a handheld camera it is necessary to either up-convert the voltage of a small consumer battery to 12 volts or to down-convert the standard 14 volt battery voltage to 6 volts for the camera. Or else you have to carry extra batteries just to run the light. And 6-volt consumer lights simply aren't designed for serious professional use.

ElightZ is the first professional on-camera light designed specifically for handheld cameras. Operating at 6 volts, the same as the camera, ElightZ shares power with the ElipZ 10k battery through its exclusive Powerplug connector. Constructed of lightweight and durable high temperature polycarbonate, the two-stage hinged boom arms of the ElightZ offer a virtually unlimited range of adjustability - fully extended, the head is over 5 inches high and can be extended forward to eliminate lens shadowing.

ElightZ high efficiency 10 watt halogen light packs photometric performance to blend almost any available light. The light head bezel removes easily for bulb changes. The bezel also features two mounting points for a wide variety of gels and spun (included) to effortlessly adapt to any lighting conditions.

ElightZ mounts quickly and easily to any camera mounting type - shoe or stud - with a unique modular mounting mechanism. Best of all at the end of a shooting day, the light folds away neatly into a compact package and can remain on the camera without adding weight or interfering with camera operation.
