The Newell Perseo-36 Pro light shaper is a versatile tool for precisely shaping light beams in photography and film. Fitted with a Bowens mount, it is compatible with a wide range of lights, not just those from Newell. Thanks to its 36° beam angle, it allows you to conveniently illuminate a larger area without having to move the light source significantly further away. A distinctive feature of this model is its 4 shutters, which allow you to shape the light spot more precisely. The set includes no fewer than 29 GOBO filters in a special case, 5 coloured effect foils and a carry bag. The focus adjustment ring allows you to precisely adjust the character of the projection, whilst the high-quality build and the manufacturer’s 40-month support programme make the Perseo-36 Pro a reliable choice for creators.

It allows you to focus the beam on a specific point, create striking contours, highlight details and produce projections with far greater precision than with traditional light modifiers. It is an indispensable accessory for creators who want to give their photos and videos even greater depth and a professional edge. More light where you need it The Newell Perseo-36 Pro offers a 36° beam angle, which is slightly wider than that of the Perseo-33 version. In practice, this means a larger light patch at the same distance from the subject, making it easier to light larger objects, parts of a set or wider shots. This characteristic works particularly well in smaller studios and when working at shorter distances, when you want to maintain precise control over the light whilst covering a larger area. Barndoors for shaping the light beam One of the most significant new features of the Newell Perseo-36 Pro is the four shutters, which allow you to shape the light pattern even more precisely. With these, you can cut the beam from one or more sides, limit light spill onto the background and direct the light exactly where it’s needed. This is an extremely useful feature, particularly in product photography, portraiture and film shots, where full control over what remains illuminated and what is left in shadow is crucial. Shutters allow you to achieve a more theatrical, stage-like and deliberately designed effect. The magic of GOBO filters GOBO filters enable the precise shaping of the light beam by projecting selected patterns and shapes. The name itself comes from the English phrase ‘goes before optics’, meaning ‘placed in front of the optics’. Metal plates with cut-out patterns are mounted inside the spotlight using the magnetic holder included in the set to create unique reflections, shadows and visual effects on set. This solution works brilliantly in artistic photography, films, vlogs, theatre, fashion shoots and anywhere where light is used to set the mood. 29 GOBO filters in a special case The Newell Perseo-36 Pro spotlight comes with no fewer than 29 GOBO filters. This extensive collection of patterns and shapes allows you to create a wide variety of lighting designs – from subtle organic motifs to more geometric and decorative compositions. The filters are housed in a practical case resembling a booklet. Each metal plate can be placed in a transparent sleeve, making it even easier to browse the available patterns. The Perseo-36 Pro spotlight also comes with a special adapter that allows you to use the GOBO filters included with the Newell Perseo-33 model. Popular Bowens mount The Newell Perseo-36 Pro light bar uses the popular Bowens mount, which has remained one of the most widely used standards in the photography and film industry for years. This means the unit is compatible with a wide range of lights available on the market, making it easy to integrate with your existing kit. This solution will be appreciated by both professionals and creators who are building up their lighting setup in stages. 5 coloured effect filters The kit includes 5 coloured effect filters, which allow you to quickly change the colour of the light and create a specific mood for a scene without having to resort to RGB lights. It’s a simple yet highly effective way to add character to your shots. Coloured filters work well in both portrait and product photography, as well as on film sets. Focus adjustment ring The Newell Perseo-36 Pro spotlight is fitted with a focus adjustment ring, which allows you to precisely tailor the projection to the needs of a specific scene. Thanks to this, you can smoothly transition from softer, diffused edges to clear, sharp contours. This solution offers great creative freedom and allows you to refine the final look of the light spot even further. Safe and convenient transport The Newell Perseo-36 Pro light beam comes with a practical zipped carry bag. Inside, there are contoured compartments designed to keep everything organised. This storage solution not only makes working more convenient but also effectively protects your equipment during transport. You’ll particularly appreciate this feature in the studio, on set and whilst travelling. Ideal for Bi-Colour lamps It is worth noting that the Newell Perseo-36 Pro light bar (like the Perseo-33 model) has been designed to work with lights fitted with a single, point light source, such as BI-COLOR models with a single, large LED. This design guarantees a clean and sharp projection of patterns. In the case of RGB lamps, which often use an array of many smaller LEDs emitting light at different angles, distortions, colour artefacts or an unnatural light distribution within the projected spot may occur when no GOBO filter is fitted. Perseo-33 or Perseo-36 Pro – how do they differ? The Newell Perseo-36 Pro is an upgraded version of the highly acclaimed Perseo-33 model. The spotlight offers a wider beam angle, a more extensive set of GOBO filters, shutters for precise light shaping, and an expanded accessory storage system. An additional advantage is an adapter that allows you to use GOBO filters from the Perseo-33. If you’re looking for even greater flexibility, more convenient organisation and more options for shaping the light, the Perseo-36 Pro has been designed with you in mind. 40 months of support Choose quality and experience.
