Really focused, resulting in the high par values.
Initially these lights were designed for placement up to 4' above water for commercial use.

We are actually talking to the manufacturer in changing the collimator angles for a more home user effect, the pars will be slightly reduced, but you will get better coverage. As we will be the authorize warranty depot for the Led's in Canada, we will be able to help modify them better for non-commercial use.

Then again, for a suggested retail of $349.99 for the 60d, it's nothing to sneeze at.
