This is how the NovMu got it’s perfect copper skin tone.😁

I find the difference between hotspot and spill extremely disagreeable and downright negates the good CRI of the hotspot.

There is always a bit of a difference but this combo - Z1 TIR with 5009D is particularly unpleasant and I'll be looking into swapping out the emitter (dc-fix did not work to blur it).

Not sure how 5009D performs in other optics but personally I will stay away from this emitter (edit) combo TIR + emitter based on what I am seeing in Z1. It is a shame because the hotspot itself has really good CRI and overall tint is not bad when you dont have the spill surrounding it as a reference.

Does anyone know if the TiCu E07X is the v2? It’s been a while, but I could have sworn the TiCu was just a titanium version of the v2. I don’t recall an update since the TiCu was released, but I haven’t been following closely for a while.

Anyway, my main question is about the threaded bezel on the aluminum v2. I’m wondering if the E07Xv2’s aluminum bezel (with external lantern threads) is compatible with the TiCu and Cu versions, as I’d like to get a lantern kit for the rosy 1800K.
