The Kinotehnik Practilite 634 Bi-Color LED Aspheric Zoom Fresnel Finally available for purchase. It was announced in early 2022.
The Kinotehnik Practilite 634 Bi-color LED Aspheric Zoom Fresnel is a variable beam, smartphone-controlled fixture designed for use by single shooters or small crews.
I previously reviewed the first Practilite Bi-Color Smart LED Fresnels in 2017. If you’re looking for a high-quality, portable bi-color LED light, I’ve found them to be a very good option. They are built like a tank, provide plenty of output and very accurate color. A big deal is that the light output is almost identical regardless of which CCT is set. The light falloff was some of the best I’ve seen from an LED Fresnel fixture. The 15 to 75 degree beam angles of the 602 and 604 give the lights a lot of flexibility depending on what you need to do.
Okay, so let’s get back to the Practilite 634 Bi-Color.
