Pros and cons

The included reflector bundles the light, so you can brighten a subject in a very specific way.
You can choose from 12 different light effects and easily create creative light situations, such as fireworks and storm.
You can only use the lamp corded, so you always need a socket.

Description

The Nanlite FC-500B Bi-color is a studio light for videographers and journalists. You can set the color temperature to your liking from 2700 to 6500K. This means you can choose between warm or cool lighting and recreate natural lighting conditions, for example. The set also includes a light shaping tool that bundles the light beams from the light to brighten a subject in a specific way. For example, aim the light at the face of someone you're interviewing. You can choose from 12 built-in light effects, including fireworks, storm, and fire. This ensures creative images. And thanks to the silent fan, the light is also silent so you don't hear any unwanted noises in your recordings.

Pro equipment for starters with a small bank account

Dirt cheap
More than enough power for 9/10 rooms up to 50m2
not too heavy
buttons are on the lamp

Great lamp! Not too big, not too small. Just enough when the sun is shining brightly into your space. It's easy to carry and affordable.

It combines well with a 90cm softbox.

If you want to use a 120cm softbox, a 720w version might be more recommended. But for this price, you absolutely won't find anything better.

Toplamp voor bodemprijs!

Spotgoedkoop
Krachtigste lamp voor deze prijs
Bi-color
Knopjes zitten op de lamp zelf

De knopjes zitten op de lanp zelf, dus even de lamp op en neer halen om iets aan te passen. Verder kan ik onder de €1200 geen enkele lamp opnoemen die beter is dan deze
