Our Universal Power Supply protects your valuable digital workstation from power surges, black- or brownouts. If the power goes, the UPS jumps in directly, allowing you to save your session and to properly shutdown the workstation. Being prepared for any eventuality, that’s LocLum.

…with an ideal homepage for an ideal price. The homepage aims at assistants and at photographers, and allows for an easy management of your portfolio. For further information, please contact bigblackline.com.

Not really, but the fastest 17′ MacBook Pro available in Spain (at least for the moment). The new MacBooks have been released less than 10 days ago, and are already available at LocLum. Some tech specs:

  • Intel Cuad Core i7, at a whoping 2,5 GHz
  • The 8 GB SDRAM DDR 3 is the standard at 1.333 MHz
  • No Hard Disk, but a lightning-fast Solid State Drive
  • Antiglare screen

 

To complete it all, the new iWorkCase greatly facilitates your workflow on the set. The fastest digital stuff, that’s LocLum.

Industry giant Technicolor has released their CineStyle Picture Profile for Canon 5D Mark II HDSLR video. The CineStyle Profile produces a desaturated and flat image – something that is usually avoided, but here, it is the goal. So why all the fuss? Shadows and lowly lit areas will be more detailed, and adding contrast results much easier in Post than reducing it.

Once selected the Picture Profile, these camera settings should be used:

  • Sharpness: 0
  • Contrast: -4
  • Saturation: -2
  • Color Tone: 0
  • ISO: The Canon 5D Mark II has a native ISO of 160, so always choose 160 or multiples thereof.

 

If you rent one of our Canon 5D MarkII, the Technicolor Cine Style will be installed free of charge, upon request. Following the tech trend, that’s LocLum.

UPDATE:

The Marvels Cine Picture Style is installed on our Canon 5D Mark II as well, upon request.

LocLum‘s HD and DSLR video material is an instant success with our clients, and Independent Film makers Wytse Koetse (author) and Peter Crosby (DoP) choose LocLum to provide material for their short film “Quattro Formaggi”, shot in and around Barcelona.

Material for any project you might have, that’s LocLum.

…from Manfrotto. LocLum is constantly investing into new material, and among the current delivery from Manfrotto are countless sandbags, C-stands with level leg, double wind-ups, butterfly frames (6, 8, 12 and 20″) with the corresponding silks, and lots of clamps, spiggots and the like.
New, clean, and well maintained equipment, that’s LocLum.

LocLum purchased some more Canon material in order to be prepared if there is the long awaited release of either the Canon 5D Mark III or a 1Ds Mark IV. Among the newest additions are the 100mm/2.8 L IS USM, the 85mm/1.2 L II USM, and a 50mm/1.2 L USM.
The right lens for the perfect shot, that’s LocLum.

Recently, our blog has been somewhat neglected, due to a very exciting summer.

Last months’ projects include:

Seat, Toyota, Opel, Mercedes, Hyundai, Suzuki and AMG in automotive
Puma, Massimo Dutti, Takko, and Stradivarius in fashion
Vanity Fair, Harper’s Bazaar, GQ, and El Pais in editorials

and many many more, like American Express, Ikea, Diesel, Barclays Bank, Nivea, JBC, Sony…

The most reknown brands choose LocLum, why should you go any further?

LocLum now offers the cable that allows to remote release the Canon 5D MarkII, via pocket wizards. The camera is on a high tripod and nobody wants to stay up there all day? Taking shots in a dangerous environment such as next to the racetrack with speeding cars? Having the camera behind the soccer goal in an important match? Then, the new Pocket Wizard/Canon 5D MarkII cable, provided by LocLum, is your choice.

Thinking along, that’s LocLum.

LocLum is very proud to have been the material provider for a TV shoot taking place at Barcelona’s newest and most beautyful location, right on the waterfront of Barceloneta Beach. The W Hotel (or Hotel Vela as locals call it for its form of a sail) has been the venue for many shoots supplied by LocLum, and our personal contacts allow for material delivery directly from the service entrance to rooms, suites, or even the balconies on the 22nd floor, whether there is staff present from production or not.

During three days, in- and outdoor locations around the hotel were the stage for one of the largest German TV stations. ARRI Compact HMIs, their power generators as well as our flexible California Sunbouncers were the weapon of choice.

Hassle-free deliveries, that’s LocLum.
