Westcott Optical Spot

The Optical Spot is natively compatible with Bowens (S-type) mounts. It also supports Profoto mounts, making it versatile for photographers using standard studio strobes or COB LED lights.

Yes, it is rated for use with strobes up to 600Ws and COB LED lights up to 100W. Always ensure your light source falls within these power ratings to prevent damage to the unit.

You can shape the light using the four adjustable metal leaves, which allow you to cut the beam into precise slices or squares. For creative patterns, you can insert any of the eight included gobos into the slot to project designs like stars, hearts, or window blinds onto your subject or background.

Yes, the 150mm F3.5 lens is manually focusable. This allows you to adjust the sharpness of your projected light or gobo pattern, letting you choose between a crisp, hard-edged projection or a softer, more diffused look.

Yes, the kit comes with five color gels—red, blue, green, orange, and yellow—that can be inserted into the unit to add creative color to your projections.

The unit weighs 8.5 lbs (3.9 kg). While it is built with durable aluminum and glass, it is substantial, so you should ensure you are using a sturdy, reliable light stand with a secure grip to support the weight safely.
