^^^ Agree. Cibie Oscar SC are a superb light. Fitted with HID are even better. They have a unique reflector and lens and they really work exceptionally well for the size of the lamp. The only drawback is the dated styling of the lamp body. Cibie lamps are well known for being robust, durable and high performance but the style of Oscars and Super Oscars possibly turns people off. The Cibie Turini is a much more stylish lamp but I believe the Aust importer no longer brings them in. Also, you can't (easily) fit HID's to Turinis as they use a H2 bulb.

Another grreat lamp I used were PIAA but again, very difficult to get hold of and expensive in Aus. That was in the days before HID and the PIAA's were above all else.
