Designed by a Cameraman
Phil Broom Lighting Cameraman was mightily cheesed off with the prospect of lugging a well known Eye device around the US, so decided to make his own alternative device which would fit in his suitcase. He soon realised he may be onto something.. The BeamSplitter range was born!

The Top Grid range of solid lighting grids are foldable, don't sag, cost effective and can be adapted to fit a wide range of LED lighting sources.

We also offer a bespoke service so if you have a particular size we can make to measure.

Made with 100% recycled polypropylene Correx, which is durable and heat resistance up to 160°C.
