LDI Lighting Show
Looking for location lighting gear at LDI is a bit like being a vegan at a steak house. There’s a big menu but not much you can order. With the show’s primary focus on theater and live entertainment, LDI attracted some manufacturers of TV studio lighting gear but many location oriented companies were absent. Even industry leaders Mole and Arri… read more…

I had trouble with Sony not mentioning specifically where they were in Hall 12 until I arrived and found that Sony occupied the entire Hall.
