NEW Arri D5 575W HMI Head w/ 6" Fresnel Lens

Part of Arri's True Blue series, the D5 HMI 575W Fresnel Head is a compact HMI Fresnel fixture designed for film and broadcast lighting where you need efficient output and controlled, even beam shaping from a 6-inch Fresnel lens. Staying true to its Arri roots, it reduces weight while maximizing light output, making it well-suited for location work and fast-moving set workflows.

Cooling and Output Stability

True Blue heads feature a cross-cooling system that helps manage heat at the source. The lamp housing temperature is reduced 25% and lens temperature 17%, which supports more comfortable handling during long shooting days and helps keep performance consistent when the head is run hard.

Built for Fast Rigging and Modifier Use

A redesigned, lightweight sliding stirrup and improved tilt lock with disc brake make it easier to balance the fixture and hold position securely, especially when adding a Chimera or similar light modifier. Adjustable accessory brackets, robust True Blue barndoors with a barndoor safety catch, and a robust location top latch are designed to speed up setup and keep accessories secure during operation and transport.

Durability and Light Quality Details

The D5 is built with corrosion-resistant aluminium construction and stainless steel lens protection for demanding production environments. High-efficiency, wide-angle lenses contribute to extremely even light distribution, supporting clean, predictable Fresnel shaping for key, fill, or backlight applications.

Maintenance and Environmental Rating

Designed for easy maintenance and fast operation, this head carries an IP23 rating, offering added confidence for real-world production conditions.
