MODELLING LAMP (4)

dThe modelling light consists of a lamp that is fed directly from the mains. It is therefore important to check that the lamp has a rated voltage that matches that of the mains. The lamp supplied as standard is a 150 - 250W halogen lamp with an E27base (ComPactSpecial 300 and ComPactSpecial 600) or a 500W halogen lamp with an E11Minican base with the ComPact1200.

The ComPact300 and ComPact600 can also be supplied with a normal 100Wlamp with an E27base. Toimprove the correspondence between the modelling light and flash, the flash tube and modelling lamp is enclosed in a frosted glass cover (standard in all models with halogen modelling lamps).
