A luminaire which produces a wide beam of light
Continuous (non-flash), artificial light source, generally used in the studio for evenly-spread illumination. Also known as Photoflood or Flood lamp. Has a color temperature of 3400° on the Kelvin scale. FOCAL LENGTH is the determination of the relative size of a lens.
reflector lamp with a relatively wide beam pattern. Also a luminaire consisting of lamp and reflector at fixed distance providing a wide field of illumination.
A lantern that only has a reflector to control the light output and has a wide beam angle.
A luminaire that has only a reflector (no lens) to control the beam, with a wide-angle distribution.
Normally used to spread light over a large area rather than directing it into a narrow area, it's also called a flood lamp.
