Lighting hire: LED and flash systems

Lighting available to hire: full spectrum LEDs for video and motion, flash systems for stills work


The lights below are detailed in full, with the technical figures we use ourselves to plan a shoot: Aputure LED monolights for video and motion, Broncolor and Profoto flash for stills.

Aputure STORM 1200x LED

The workhorse continuous LED in our lineup. A 1200 W full spectrum monolight with the brightness of an 1800 W HMI at a fraction of the power draw: 202,500 lux at 1 m with the included 45° reflector, full CCT range from 2,500 to 10,000 K, with green/magenta correction for accurate white point control under any existing ambient light.


Stepless dimming from 0.1 to 100% means the same light works for hero shot intensity and subtle fill in the same setup. Flicker free at every output level. Bowens mount, IP65 rated for outdoor and on location work, and controllable via DMX, LumenRadio CRMX, Art-Net, sACN Ethernet, Bluetooth or the Sidus Link / Sidus Link Pro apps, so it slots into any existing lighting workflow without rewiring.

Seven colour modes, including Rosco and LEE gel presets and source matching, and 16 built in lighting effects for shots that need movement in the light itself. Bowens mount, battery compatible for on location work, controllable via DMX, CRMX, Art-Net, sACN, Bluetooth or the Sidus Link app.

Broncolor Siros 800L battery monolights

A pair of 800 J Broncolor Siros L monolights, battery powered, so they work the same on a client's set or on location as they do in our studio. No mains, no extension leads, no waiting for a generator. The L series is Broncolor's portable line: same Broncolor build quality and bayonet mount for the full modifier range, just without the wall socket.

Comes in a rolling case as a matched set: two Siros 800L monolights, four batteries (two in the lights plus two spares), battery charger, and the Broncolor RFS2 remote trigger. Pair with our modifier library (softboxes, scrims, beams, reflectors) for any tabletop, product or location stills setup.

Profoto B10 and B10 Plus flash


Small battery powered flash heads that pack a lot of light into very little space. The B10 gives 250 Ws and the B10 Plus 500 Ws, both with an LED modelling light that doubles as continuous light for video, and Profoto AirTTL built in. They fit where a larger head can't: close to a small product, inside a set, or on location without mains.


The kit is two B10 and two B10 Plus heads in a large roller case, with the Profoto Air remote, a set of umbrellas, a small beauty box and four compact light stands.

Questions about lighting rental


Can we hire lights without the studio?


Yes. Every light can be hired on its own, or together with the studio, cameras and lenses.


Do the lights come with modifiers?


Modifiers are available alongside the lights. The Aputure LEDs take Bowens mount modifiers; for the flash, the options depend on the system. Tell us what you need when you book.


Can you help us choose the kit?


Yes. Tell us what you're shooting and we'll suggest the lights and modifiers, from a single head to a full package.
