Ayrton MagicBlade-FX

The versatile MAGICBLADE-FX is an exciting new iteration of Ayrton’s award-winning MAGICBLADE-R, which has been sold by the thousands for use on major musical tours worldwide. This new MAGICBLADE is equipped with the revolutionary FX optical zoom system that has no visible moving parts and a fixed transmitting lens. With a 15:1 zoom ratio, the beam angle of this proprietary system ranges from 3.6º to 53º. It features seven squared 65 mm transmitting lenses, each with an equivalent optical surface to a round lens with an 80 mm diameter that is combined with a ultra-powerful, low-etendue, LED emitter, enabling MAGICBLADE-FX to project intense beams to help create 3D volumetric effects.
