Martin ELP 15-30 degree Zoom Lens for Ellipsoidal Lights

Martin ELP 15-30 Degree Zoom Lens for Ellipsoidal Lights

The Martin ELP 15-30 Degree Zoom Lens delivers professional-grade optical performance with genuine hands-on simplicity. Its 6-lens optical design achieves the ultrabright output and crisp focus of a static lens while providing the speed and flexibility of a zoom mechanism—a rare combination in modern ellipsoidal optics. The independent zoom and focus controls respond intuitively, and the anti-slip locking mechanism keeps the lens secure once positioned.

Optical Performance & Design

This lens maintains flat projection across the full 15-30 degree zoom range and delivers sharp focus across the entire image area, eliminating the soft edges or brightness falloff common in conventional zoom lenses. The 4-blade framing system produces clean, defined edges for gobos and shutters at any zoom position. These optical characteristics make the lens equally suited to precise architectural lighting, theatrical spotlighting, or dynamic beam control in live venues.

Build, Maintenance & Compatibility

All critical components feature C3 corrosion resistance, extending service life in demanding environments. The service hatch provides quick access for lens cleaning without full disassembly, and the all-in-one gobo/accessory gate and focus control simplifies the mechanical layout. The lens mounts directly to ETC type S4 fixtures and ships with a color gel frame included.
