Here is one of those surprises that I mentioned about Super Saturday 2011. Robert Juliat was exhibiting at the event and showed off their brand new, never seen before AledIN 330LF LED Fresnel! The AledIN Fresnel takes the LED engine from the profile AledIN and produces a super clean and even soft light that we are use to seeing in a fresnel. What is really impressive is the beam spread. From 20 degrees all the way to 98 degrees! I’ll let Pete Engel from Robert Juliat tell you more about the fixture. Thanks again to Scott Parker and Sonny Sonnenfeld for allowing me access to this sneak peak.
Remember that “project” Robert Juliat showed off at LDI in a back room under special invite? Looks like the “project” has been turned into a final product and is getting ready to ship! Here is more from the Press Release:
The Aledin™ is the first product of its type to achieve significant output AND superlative framing and projection ability from an extremely low-powered LED light source.
Aledin Features:
Based around Robert Juliat’s 600SX Series profile, the Aledin benefits from the famed double condenser optical system and retains all the features of a standard Robert Juliat profile. Aledin’s low power consumption is of value where power availability is limited, whilst the choice of colour temperatures make it equally at home in a theatre or opera house lighting rig, whether tungsten or discharge. Aledin™ is also perfect for environments such as historic theatres or museums, since there are no UV or IR emissions to damage sensitive fabrics or exhibits.
The Aledin™ LED Profile Spotlight is available in three zoom ranges and can also be purchased as a retrofit kit for Robert Juliat 600 Series Tungsten, the 400 Series Quincy and the Figaro luminaires. Orders for Aledin are now being accepted for delivery in Summer 2010.
More information on Robert Juliat can be found at www.robertjuliat.com and www.robertjuliatamerica.com. Pricing has not been announced or published, contact your local Robert Juliat Dealer for pricing and additional information.
UPDATE: Retail price $ 2,995.00

We just heard about a couple of interesting YouTube Videos from Robert Juliat, the French Spot Light Manufacturer. Might we see something on the show floor at LDI? Who knows, there isn’t much more information that we can find other then the “The fisrt ever powerful LED profile by Robert Juliat“.
Thanks Barbizon!
