Lexie followspot received its official launch at ISE 2025.
Robert Juliat was very happy with its presence at ISE (Integrated Systems Europe) in Barcelona, enjoying a busy show with a good international range of visitors, all of whom gave universally positive responses to RJ’s innovative new LED followspot, profile and Fresnel solutions.
The new 420W LED-source Lexie followspot (1176) received its official launch at the show with RJ reporting a great response from visitors: “The feedback was that Lexie’s robust construction and compact size makes it easy to handle and operate, as well as to transport,” says Séverine Zucchiatti, RJ’s Communications Manager. “Plus, despite its compact size, Lexie has a surprisingly powerful output delivering approximately 15,000 lumens with a crisp 6500K cool white source, and an optical range, both of which make it a versatile LED solution for all small to medium size venues
“It really is a plug-and-play fixture which makes it very easy to use, and has easy and smooth dimming and iris control, factors which also makes it very attractive solution for universities and schools.”

RJ’s Tristan followspot was also back at ISE, this time with new enhanced functionality and accessories which visitors found very attractive, appealing to a number of venues’ different requirements. A highlight was its motorized iris, which allows users to create precise iris presets for enhanced creative control, either locally or remotely from the console; a new remote display, which provides real-time iris and dimming values, duplicates the main screen and is easily visible to the followspot operator during use, helping to simplify operation and workflow; and new options to connect remote controllers – rotary or fader – from multiple top, side or rear positions, offer unparalleled flexibility and control over iris and dimming control for operators.
The versatile Tristan, with its 825W cool white LED source, rivals the performance of traditional 1800W MSR followspots, making it an attractive solution for all mid-range applications, excelling in front-of-house, truss, and backlight positions.
When it comes to LED profile and Fresnel solutions, Robert Juliat holds its market position with the Bizet range which was on show on the stand. Bizet 370LF Fresnel demonstrated its output – equivalent to a 2K tungsten fixture – and, in a Robert Juliat first, the incorporation of an innovative motorized focus control. More importantly, Bizet Fresnel features a 500W tunable white LED source which is used at full power whatever the colour temperature chosen, guaranteeing high quality whites.

Bizet 670SX profile spot, a powerful LED white profile spot, was also on show, presented as an LED alternative to the famous RJ 700 2kW Series. Designed for front of house applications, Bizet is available in tunable white (500W) or fixed cool white (600W) and ensures superior colour rendering, boasting a CRI of 96-98 and a TM30 Rf of 94-96, delivering high quality whites and precision lighting. Importantly, all RJ 600 Series and 700 Series optics are fully compatible with Bizet lamp houses making Bizet an economical option for transitioning existing tungsten rigs to LED.
Visitors also had the opportunity to learn more about Sully 4C profile spot (650SX 4C) and Sully 4C Fresnel (315LF). Awarded the 2022 LDI Award for Best Debuting Product, Sully 4C features the integrated RJ Color, Robert Juliat’s innovative software platform. Sully 4C profile has the added advantage of a quick change LED module which makes it an economical method of retrofitting tungsten 600SX Series fixtures with an LED source.
