The Alpha Spot QWO 800 uses the latest FastFit single-ended MSR
Platinum lamp - a 800W light source that produces an intense spar-
kling light, brighter even than older 1200W lamps. Additionally, the
Alpha Spot QWO 800 is equipped with optical features that place this
luminaire at the very top of its class, including:
• A very wide zoom range from 7.6° to 55°
• Uniform beam distribution at all zoom angles
• A unique Stay-Sharp-Zoom feature that locks images in focus
while zooming
Add to that the lamp’s ability to reproduce highly detailed images,
and the Alpha Spot QWO 800 becomes a brilliantly effective graph-
ics projector. For that reason we decided not to skimp on the effects
included: two glass gobo wheels (one rotating), an animation wheel,
a rotating prism and a number of color options including a full CMY
system, a color wheel and a variable CTO system.
The beam’s size can be altered using the slick, 16-blade iris that pro-
vides a more rounded, continuous hard edge. For soft-edged pro-
jections, there is a variable frost, while accurate dimming is achiev-
able via an electrical-mechanical hybrid dimmer. Making the most of
these features is the Dyna-Cue-Creator, a powerful tool that not only
speeds up programming, but automatically synchronizes effects in a
way that would be very complex to program manually.
The Alpha Spot QWO 800 has two other vital features. First, it is one
of the quietest automated luminaires in existence. It never exceeds
42dBa and runs even more quietly while operating at half power
(400W). Its second advantage is its small, compact size – no bigger
than an Alpha 700. Usually, fixtures with such a rich set of features
are housed in large, bulky frames instead, the Alpha 800’s slim,
compact build lends it greater speed and agility.
Small, lightweight construction, impressive zoom range, excellent
brightness, uniform beam, silent operation, low consumption – these
are just some of the features that make the Alpha Spot QWO 800 an
excellent tool for TV, theatre, corporate events, and countless other
demanding lighting applications.
