The Absen PL2.5 Pro 1/8 Scan is a rental-grade indoor LED panel designed for camera-facing applications and virtual production. It combines a fine 2.5 mm pixel pitch with Absen's UltraBlack approach for improved contrast and reduced on-camera reflections, while integrated mechanical features speed up installation and teardown.

Key Features

• High-contrast image, achieved with small non-reflective LEDs and a matte, super-black mask for better on-camera performance.
• 1/8 scan configuration optimized for virtual production and broadcast use.
• Fine pixel pitch, 2.5 mm, with a single LED per pixel and 200 x 200 pixel panels for detailed imagery.
• Fast installation using integrated auto-lock and auto-eject systems, reducing rigging time on rental jobs.
• Processing options, compatible with Brompton or Novastar processing platforms for flexible signal workflows.
• Camera-friendly performance, high refresh rate and 16-bit grayscale support reduce flicker and banding for on-camera shoots.

Use Cases

• Virtual production stages and LED volume backdrops.
• Broadcast sets and studio walls where low-reflection, high-contrast performance is required.
• Rental events requiring quick build and strike with reliable mechanical locking and signal compatibility.
