Q: 1. Why would I get the 22 degree spot versions if i can get the spot to flood? Is there a disadvantage with the spot to flood version?

A: One of the main advantages of the C-Series lights is that they work with dozens of reflectors and hundreds of accessories, and while this provides tons of flexibility, there are pros and cons to each reflector. Here are the most popular versions you are asking about:Hornet 200-C Super Spot - This provides the tightest beam (22 deg) and most amount of punch for the light. It creates a Parabolic beam type of output and can be used as a bounce or long throw. It can also be modified with optional drop in lenses.Hornet 200-C Adjustable Fresnel - The Fresnel version provides the ability to spot and flood the fixture quickly and easily without changing the reflector. While the 15-50 degree beam spread provides a much wider range than the Spot Reflector, the glass itself (like all glass) does block a higher percentage of the light than the Spot Reflector.So for maximum output choose the spot, and for maximum flexibility choose the fresnel.Also, since virtually all of the reflectors, fresnels, softboxes and other optical accessories are all interchangeable throughout the C-Series line, you can mix and match to get these exact output and beam shape that you are looking for.I hope that answers your question!

Q: 2. Are these light really bright? My current fresnel leds are a bit soft. I would be using them with a softbox.

A: The output of the light really depends on which reflectors you are using with the source. The 22 degree reflector and the 10 degree super spot will give you the most output. If you want more light you can pair the 22 degree reflector with a softbox. If you remove the reflectors you will get a 180 degree spread which makes for a very even source but it will lose a lot of the output into the diffusion.

Q: 4. Is this comparable with ProFoto heads?

A: The HIVE LIGHTING Photo Zoom Reflector 3-Grid with Barndoors Kit is compatible with many of the Profoto brand strobes. If the strobe has a quartz lamp you might want to not have that on all the time for the heat.

Q: 5. Which Chimera Pancake would make better use of the light spread?

A: When the reflector is removed there is supposed to be a 180 degree spread. I'm planning to use a medium pancake lantern with the Wasp 100-C. I think the important thing is how you want to use the light and how much output may fill either a small area or a large room.
