Flashlights in TV shows and movies (Part 4)

[sgt253]

So...does this mean that I'm the only history buff that was intrigued by the flashlights in Apollo 13?

That was some really cool information. I would love to see one of those lights in person.

Me too...I really love that brass one.

I just saw this in a youtube add:
no idea what it is

 

[Monocrom]

Honestly, from that angle; it could be almost anything.

I know, and I am not keen on watching the movie to figure out what it is, from the film rating it sounds like it is 1 step and zombies away from a full blown p@@@ film.
:shrug:

Thanks, Senator, for tracking this down and sharing.

Hello all,
Just a newbie here, but I was on a movie set last month (outside) and was talking with one of the prop guys that dealt with lighting, to be specific car headlights, he explained to me that they had to put invisible film over lights or it would really mess with the cameras, I don't know if this helps anybody with their question, but it was something I learned

Can someone please tell me what this flashlight is. I saw it on a Web series called expedition overland. I love their videos and adventures.

The green light on the side makes me want to guess it is a Surefire UNR Commander. But it looks kinda short? So not too sure.

Jurassic Park-Maxi-Beam-I got the opportunity to handle one of those at a boat show-Amazing piece of kit-although it was roughly $2k+ so I respectfully handed it back to the dealer.

Looks like it could be a surefire-it appears to have some sort of "strike bezel"-It'd be nice to see a snip-it of the video?

I'll try to post it tonight after work, can you please help me figure out how to do it? I have never did it before. It took me an hour to post that picture.

To me it looks like a Surefire lawman. Fuel light, slight crenellations, and looks to possibly have the head switch. A little blurry tho.

Watching Fantastic Four the other day, I spotted this:

As it happens, I have this on my test bench right now - the First Light T-Max:

However, in the movie they don't use it as a light, but as a 'detector', and the one in the film if the First Light Tomahawk (the predecessor to the T-Max I'm testing).

A good while ago I posted this picture from Doctor Who:

Riversong using a Fenix T1 in 1996 programme time.

Now this Saturday Doctor Who returns to our screens and in an advance publicity shot here's Riversong again using her trusty Fenix.

Although this time she's sprayed it white and she appears to be examining some gooey vacuum cleaner hoses. Yuck!

She really should upgrade her paraphanalia as soon as the BBC Wales Props department lets her!

^^Ahhh yes! Doctor Who one of my favourite shows.

I always wondered what lights they used in the films because they're so many since they are always in dark creepy places...

On some occasions I thought River Song (women in pic) was holding a ZL but I'm like -nah that can't be possible!

Some interesting lights in that show .

Looks like Sky Ray or something else.

Olight

Sci Fi movies love the multi-reflector lights. I remember they used a Fenix TK45 in "Prometheus."

 

[etc]

It is a typo - Fenix T1 did not exist in 1996.
