Product Description
ZOLAR™ professional LED lighting system is developed by Shenzhen ImagineVision Technology
Limited, the same successful team that created Z CAM Cinema Cameras. ZOLAR™ products are de-
veloped with profound color science knowledge, leading image processing algorithms, as well as
camera lens and sensor calibration expertise. Delivering high fidelity color reproduction and excel-
lent color rendition with performances very close to natural daylight.
Our in-house developed “Self Adaptive Spectral Nonlinear Dynamic Illuminance Calibration System”
eliminates the inconsistent LED performance issues. In addition, our revolutionary solution allows a
mixture of ZOLAR™ light series to be used simultaneously without any visible color deviation (color
matching mode will be added to other ZOLAR™ series).
ZOLAR™ Toliman is a Bi-color LED light panel series targeting professional video productions. Its ex-
cellent soft light performance and high fidelity color reproduction has set a new benchmark for the
industry. Designed with dual full spectrum LEDs to deliver continuous light spectrum across full CCT
range with exceptionally high CRI & TLCI scores, particularly in R9, R12, R13 & R15. No compromise.
Spectral Similarity Index (SSI) is developed by The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to
evaluate the fidelity of color reproduction particularly for LED light, from a single chip CMOS digital
camera point of view. It quantitatively compares the spectrum of the test light with that of a desired
reference light source, expressing the similarity as a single number on a scale up to 100. High values
indicate a high likelihood of high fidelity color reproduction by most cameras. SSI of ZOLAR™ Toliman
is close to or exceeds 90, across full CCT range (3,200K~5,600K), a leading standard in the industry.
Higher score implies higher fidelity color reproduction, particularly the skin tone. This is exactly why
these scores exist.
ZOLAR™, The sun is the limit!
• CRI: Ra ≥ 98 (R9 & R12 up to 98), TLCI ≥ 98;
• Spectral Similarity Index SSI up to 90;
• Power consumption 200W, Output > 7,500 lux at 1m / 3.28ft;
• DMX, Art-Net 4 & sACN + powerCON
• ZOLAR Stylist precision directional super light transmissible panel: control beam angle,
light diusion, no color shift;
• Multi Light Sync - ZolarLink (wireless / cable), rapid auto sync grouping;
• Built in Light Eect (synchronized) for dierent scene applications;
• Bluetooth + Wi-Fi mixed control: Remote Controller, mobile app (iOS & Android).

Tip: When you choose the basic intensity value in the flat area of the dimming curve, the dynamic range of the light
eect will be very low in this intensity. Change to another light eect or select another dimming curve to obtain
a more dynamic light eect.
Light Control
ZOLAR™ Toliman 30S supports four Dimming Curves, the Dimming Curves are overall situation and
can be controlled through the main unit menu, Art-Net / sACN or DMX.
Dimming Curve
· Exponential (default setting): The dimming precision is higher at lower intensity and lower at
higher intensity. Use this dimming curve if you want to use high precision at low intensity.
· Logarithmic: The dimming precision is lower at lower intensity and higher at higher intensity.
Use this dimming curve if you want to use high precision at high brightness.
· Linear: The intensity change is proportional to the value adjusted by the Rotary Encoder [26] .
· S-curve: The dimming precision is high at both lower and higher intensity, and lower at intensity
levels in between. Use this dimming curve for high precision at low and high intensity levels.
