Cross CoolingARRI’s cross cooling* system moves a stream of air around the Fresnel lens and through the lamphead. In addition, air is channeled through the aluminium extrusion housing, reducing lens and housing temperatures. Cross cooling* allows ARRI TRUE BLUES to safely operate at almost any tilt angle. |

Adjustable Accessory BracketsFinally an easy solution to an old problem. Location crews need space in the accessory bracket for up to four scrims; studio crews suffer from the light leak this creates. Now two-position TRUE BLUE accessory brackets quickly adjust in or out for two or four scrims. By reducing the space between the scrims and the lens, unwanted reflected and spill light is minimised. |

Tilt LockARRI’s new design creates a positive lock so there's no slippage when using heavy accessories. A stainless steel friction disc functions like a disc brake allowing the lamphead to be completely locked off with a minimum of force. |

BarndoorsNew ARRI barndoors use a special alloy with a high strength-to-weight ratio. The leaves in our new design withstand bending and deforming far better than traditional barndoors. In addition, leaves are now easily tightened to avoid slipping and the larger leaf design provides better control and sharper cutoff. The same features are incorporated in a new optional eight leaf barndoor. |

MaintenanceTRUE BLUE fixtures have been designed for serviceability with more common parts across the line. Removing a maximum of six universal Torx screws provides easy access to all interior parts. TRUE BLUES require only three Torx drivers to disassemble the complete fixture. ARRI’s new aluminium extrusion makes cleaning fixtures easy and our new paint process ensures that TRUE BLUES will look as great as they perform. |

Barndoor Safety CatchAlthough the top latch holds accessories securely at any tilt angle, both Studio and Location lampheads feature a second safety catch mounted on the bottom accessory bracket. This eliminates the need for a barndoor safety bond without restricting the rotation. |
