Description
ELP Manet 8f LED Fresnel Fixture
The ELP Manet 8f is a professional-grade LED fresnel delivering consistent, high-output illumination for theater, broadcast, and live event applications. Its compact form factor and intuitive control interface make it equally comfortable in fixed installations and mobile touring rigs, while the advanced color engine handles everything from precise tungsten simulation to full-spectrum creative work.
Light Output & Color Control
The fixture produces 13,100 lumens in high-output mode, sufficient for mid-to-large venue key light and wash applications. The six-color LED engine (red, green, blue, amber, lime, cyan) combined with color temperature control from 1,850 K to 12,500 K in 50 K increments enables seamless transitions between warm tungsten tones and cool daylight without color shifts or mechanical filter scrolling. A 98 CRI and 95 TM-30 Rf rating ensures accurate skin tone rendering and natural color saturation across all sources.
Optics & Beam Characteristics
The 8-inch fresnel lens with 9 to 50 degree zoom range provides flexible beam control from tight spotting to broad wash coverage without repositioning the fixture. Anti-reflective coatings on the barn doors minimize unwanted spill while maintaining edge definition across the entire zoom range.
