Color reproduction is extremely accurate both to the eye and to the camera with a CRI of 95 while color temperature is easily adjustable from 2,000 to 10,000K for a wide choice of variable color or white shade projections. Additional color tuning is possible through a green‐shift adjustment and virtual gel library to more precisely match the white balance for the camera.
