Source Four PARNel ( - 2024)
Electronic Theatre Controls / ETC
Source Four Parnel
Cross between a Parcan and a Fresnel.
The beam can be adjusted slightly more than a Parcan.
From ETC website:
"PAR optics with Fresnel focus. With the PARNel, ETC went beyond mere imitation and created a genre-bender with Fresnel-like functionality and the awesome performance of a Source Four® PAR™. A new category of product to the entertainment-lighting world. Featuring a patented wave-lens design and easy focusing knob, the PARNel lets you quickly access a range of 25º-45º - a smooth, soft, symmetrical field that you can spot or flood as needed."
The focus knob can be found on the bottom of the lantern.
It produces a nice soft-edged beam.
Retired in September 2024 due to the advance of LED alternatives.
