Chimera Quartz Plus One M w/ 3530 36 x 48" Soft Egg Crate 40°Fabric Grid

The Chimera Quartz Plus One M (Medium) is an industry-standard, heavy-duty lightbank engineered specifically to handle the extreme heat of large, open-face continuous lighting fixtures. Constructed from ultra heat-resistant materials, this 36 x 48-inch softbox is capable of accommodating high-output tungsten and HMI fixtures ranging from 1,200 watts all the way up to an impressive 6,000 watts. The "Plus" designation indicates that the front diffusion face is completely removable, allowing cinematographers and lighting directors to easily swap between different strengths of diffusion (such as full, half, or quarter grid cloth) to dial in the exact contrast and softness required for a scene.

Included in this bundle is the Chimera 3530 Lighttools 40° Fabric Grid (often referred to as a "soft egg crate"), which attaches seamlessly to the front of the medium softbox via hook-and-loop fasteners. This hand-stitched grid acts as a precise light control tool, altering the shape of the beam and preventing light from spilling onto unwanted areas of the set or background without affecting the softness or color temperature of the source. By significantly reducing the need for cumbersome C-stands, flags, and sandbags, this collapsible grid and softbox combination provides a highly portable and efficient soft-lighting solution for demanding film sets and professional photography studios.
