Spectra acrylic engraved slates were specially designed with all the best features while keeping budget in check. Made by hand in small batches just like the old-school Don Earl slates. They are built to last with superb craftsmanship and materials. Spectra commercial slates are produced from 30% translucent acrylic to allow for slate illumination from any angle (front or behind) for easy reading under low light shooting conditions. All slate text is laser engraved to assure it will never fade or wear away. Sticks are made from hand selected poplar for good audio resonance and resiliency (second only to premium walnut sticks). Sized with standardized dimensions to fit into a standard Camera Assistant Front Box. Dry erase marker and eraser block included. Don’t be fooled! Unlike the cheaply made souvenir shop slates you might see online, Spectra hand crafted slates are built to last with professionals in mind. You won’t find a better made slate for the money!
