Ultralight System - On-Camera Lighting

The Ultralight System was designed to include a variety of lighting options

including tungsten – standard with the Ultralight 2 (UL2), HMI with the

UltraDAYlight and low power consumption LED with ULHM LED. This complete

system provides creative options and ﬂexibility to achieve the perfect light for

any shot quickly and seamlessly. Featuring the integral PowerTap cable which

plugs directly into the PowerTap receptacle on all Gold Mounts, the Ultralight

System shares power with the camera from a single battery.

The compact, lightweight UL2 base is the foundation of this quick change head

module system without adding any perceptible weight, bulk or external cables.

Simply select the type of light needed and slide the desired head module on

the UL2 base. No special equipment or tools are required. Instantly change from

daylight to tungsten to LED and back by simply swapping head modules - no

twisting, turning or handling of bulbs. And unlike any other on - camera light,

with the head module removed, the base folds down into itself like a pocket

knife and can remain on the camera at all times even when the camera is in

its case.

Note: The Ultralight 2 base is required for use with the UltraDAYlight or ULHM LED. Anton/Bauer

recommends plugging the UL2 into the Gold Mount PowerTap in all applications. This will avoid

the limiting circuits of some Sony cameras.

Knowing that I could rely on the

Anton/Bauer Ultralight System, I was

able to achieve the right look and

that freed me up to be more creative

during the actual shoot.
