Briese Lighting
Briese Lighting was founded by Hans Werner Briese, photographer, engineer and entrepreneur from Hamburg. From frustration over the “muddy” Studio light of his time the successful fashion photographer and graduated physics engineer started developing his own reflector. The trick: the light source is on a movable axis in the reflector. The focus reflector was born- a quantum leap for the photography. From now on, studio light was suddenly “crunchy” like sunlight, while individual adjustable.
“HW” had this unique patented and perfected it in his own company. His invention soon became an insider´s tip. Until today, Briese lighting is famous for individual and high quality lighting in the area of film and photo productions. Many well-known photographer like Steven Meisel, Steven Klein, Anton Corbijn, Greg Gorman or Peter Lindbergh work with Briese.
The “masters” latest coup: E-focus the remote controlled focusing unit which allows to control a total of eight reflectors from the camera position- for an ultimate precision and atmospheric lighting.

Briese Focus 77 Cinema
P.O.AThe Briese Focus 77 Cinema is a key-light for ultra-smooth harmonic progressions. Due to its soft reflective reflector-coatings it covers up some errors in the make-up and smoothes out wrinkles, without appearing flat.
-
Briese Focus 85 Cinema
P.O.AThe Briese Focus 85 Cinema competes against the sun making deep shadows, being almost like a downlight, but not quite as hard.

P.O.AThe Briese Focus 140 provides a similarly detailed and crisp light as the focus 115. It is a real all-round, tungsten light.
-
Briese Focus 180
P.O.AFully focused, this tungsten light creates dramatic lighting with multiple screen differences between the centre and the edge of the picture.
-
Briese Focus 220
P.O.AFashion photographer and filmmaker also love this tungsten Briese Focus 220 reflector. It brings the sun into the studio and makes other light sources unnecessary.
-
Briese Focus 330
P.O.AWith a normal power outlet ( 2500 watts generated bulb ) the Briese focus 330, produces a quantity of light which would otherwise require 10kW fresnel.
