700 fc

@ 10ft / 3m

Super Spot 25° Modifier

Incredible high fidelity multi-chip LED array

Our 7 color array uses a combination of secondary and tertiary colored LEDs to create a more complete and even spectrum than traditional RGBW.

Ultra bright full spectrum white light.

A proprietary algorithm combines multiple different colors into a brilliant white-balanced light. Quickly access the entire color temperature with accurate full-spectrum tones.

Billions of Colors. Hundreds of preset Sources.

Pick from billions of custom colors or quickly switch between presets matched to historical sources, industry standard gels, and animated lighting EFX.

Perfect curves solved for your sensor.

Adjust for different shooting situations by using white-light curve profiles engineered for different camera sensors to make sure color rendering is as accurate as possible.

High-Octane Lighting. With incredible thermal engineering, the Super Hornet 575-C converts 500w into bright directional light without compromising the portable footprint C-Series users have grown to love.

Smart Cooling Fast

Silently squeezing every possible Lumen out of the 575-C required engineering passive and active cooling - including a state of the art copper heat pipe and finned heat sink with thermal monitoring and protections.

Extended Power

The rugged 575-C Power Cable weighs 2 lb (1 kg) and comes at a 15' length, allowing for quicker rigging, as well as a 30’ft cable and coupler accessory available.

Easy Mounting

Mafer and Super Clamp mounting holes make rigging the 575-C ballast to pipe or grid quick and safe, increasing the flexibiliy of the Super Hornet lighting system.

Built in the USA

Like all Hive LEDs, the 575-C was designed in Los Angeles, and assembled by hand in northern California using durable materials.

Quick connect.

The free Hive SHOT App allows you to easily pick from billions of colors and effects. Lights can be controlled individually, or grouped together to create limitless lighting possibilities. Access over 100 preset sources, gels, and animated lighting effects or build your own custom lighting palettes.

Shape. Cut. Soften. The 575-C can swap between the light quality of a panel, leko, or concentrated spot in seconds. Fully compatible with optics from Profoto®, Chimera®, Bowens, BronColor®, ETC®, Elinchrome®, Aputure®, and more.

Versatile Output

As a bright point source with bayonet mounts on the face and Profoto® compatability, the 575-C can quickly swap between reflectors, fresnels, soft boxes, beauty dishes, and more.

25° Super Spot Reflector

The Super Spot Reflector fits on all C-Series and delivers the brightest and most concentrated spot out of all modifiers, perfect for creating a bright key light or projecting over long distances.

40° Flood Reflector

This parabolic spot reflector creates a wider beam of focused light and a more even field, great for high output in smaller spaces or illuminating wide areas.

Full Sized Leko

The Source Four Leko combines the color control of our Omni-Color LEDs with the cutting flexibility of full-sized ETC Source Four. Shape and focus the output with a sharp, and even traditional theatrical spot light. Use standard third-party gobos to project patterns, images and logos. Profoto mount compatible this accessory can also be used with your strobe heads.

Hive Paradome

The 60cm Para Dome from Hive Lighting is a unique, 16-sided, hexadecagon shaped parabolic deep dish flood reflector and softbox. Paired with any of Hive Lighting’s C-Series LEDs its silver lined parabolic shape can function as a flood reflector, but when the diffusion front face is added it functions as a round softbox.
