A Followspot is a powerful 640-822 theater light used to 'follow' actors around the stage. They are operated by a human followspot operator. Most followspots use arc lamps or the more powerful xenon arc lamps to produce a bright, white light. Typically followspots include:
* A powerful lamp
* A manually focused lens
* A manual dimming device
* An "iris" to adjust the 642-426 size of the spot/angle of the beam
* A color magazine or "boomerang" consisting of several gel frames which can be swung in front of the beam
* Some sort of physical sight to assist in aiming is sometimes added onto the lamp by the operator.
Some followspots also 642-523 allow gobos to be fitted.
