The MediaLight Pro:
The best bias light we've ever built*

*But you probably shouldn't buy it.
(Not unless you are a professional colourist).

We've added this disclaimer because many consumers are buying the MediaLight Pro and it's simply not suitable for their needs.

Our standard MediaLight units are 95 Ra. A CRI of 95 is suitable for professional use. 

So, why make a 99 Ra version? 

1) Because we could.
2) Because we believe it is where consumer LED technology will be in a few years. 
3) Because if somebody was going to do it first, we figured it might as well be us. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 

The 20-inch MediaLight Pro does not include a remote (the dimmer is on the cable).  It is not suitable for wall mounted displays. 

Technology marches on, however, and we're sure that within the next 18 months, all of our standard products will have a CRI of 99 Ra. Our first MediaLight was a breakthrough and it was only 90 Ra, and this was only 2 years ago. 

The MediaLight Pro was created for colourists who need the highest CRI and the most uniform spectral power distribution in a bias light for their professional displays. The Pro uses an entirely new class of ColorGrade™ SMD (LED) chips, powered by near-violet photon engines, and with an incredible colour rendering index (CRI) of 99 Ra (TLCI 99.3 Qa). The MediaLight Pro is indistinguishable from daylight to the human eye.

It's an entirely new kind of bias light, powered by an entirely new class of SMD (LED) lighting. 

The human eye primarily sees wavelengths between 400-700 nanometers. The spectral power distribution curve (SPD) for the MediaLight Pro reveals that instead of the telltale harsh blue spike found in traditional white LED systems, the near-violet photon engine's energy falls largely in the subperceptual range.

Most commodity LED lighting systems fall apart in the R9 and R12 values, which are not included in CRI calculations, but are necessary for the faithful reproduction of skin tones and deep reds. They are often replaced with much more energy-efficient, and cheaper green phosphors, which can result in a greenish colour cast, even when used to illuminate a grey surface, such as is the case with bias lighting. Beyond the violet photon engine, which eliminates "blue spike," The MediaLight Pro uses a special blend of phosphors that include these vital reds, resulting in a much smoother SPD and more natural light.

With a colour rendering index (CRI) of 99 Ra (TLCI 99.3 Qa) and CCT of 6500K, the MediaLight Pro is the most advanced D65 compliant bias lighting system available today.

It is compact. It can be powered by the USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 ports on your professional monitor, and it costs 1/3 the price of high-CRI, blue emitter-based professional bias lights that are less accurate.
