Show Technology Australia, exclusive dealer for Robert Juliat products throughout Australia, reports strong feedback following the sale of a pair of Super Korrigan followspots to the Gold Coast Arts Centre in Queensland.
After investing in a couple of the world-famous Super Korrigans last year, the Gold Coast Arts Centre reports that its lighting crew is very happy with the purchase.
"Compared to other followspots on the market we found the Super Korrigans to be uniquely compact and light," remarks Russell Jones, senior lighting technician at GCAC. "The crew thinks the Super Korrigans are great and everyone loves them. We love their output, the smooth operating of the iris, and the fact that we've got the DMX models too. The way that the sliders work is fantastic. Externally, the followspots are not very hot either, so there's not much of a burn factor."
Russell further comments that the followspots are easy to maintain, they are very user-friendly, and they are extremely easy to use for the followspot operator.
The Gold Coast Arts Centre is one of the country's busiest, hosting a wide variety of productions from in-house musicals to comedy acts and many touring shows. Russell reports that the followspots are a hit with touring crews who continually rave about their brightness.
Standard features of the Super Korrigan include flat field, hot re-strike, a fully closing iris in a removable cassette, a 100% closing dimming shutter (a DMX-dimming shutter is optional), and a six-frame color changer that incorporates the popular fingertip shutter controls that were first introduced in the Topaze/Manon models. There are two types of color changers available. The Super Korrigan comes with a boomerang, but there is an optional push/pull, which is the silent-acting, side-mounted color changer.
The Super Korrigan comes standard with an A-size gobo holder, removable gel frames, frost, lamp access panels with kill switch, modular reflector and condenser lens assemblies, hinged barrel cover for ease of maintenance, and a large ergonomic wraparound handle. The unit is well-balanced and easily moves on the tripod..
