Nanlite FC-500B Bi-Colour LED Spotlight with Bowens Mount
The Nanlite FC-500B is a mains-powered bi-colour LED spotlight that offers a significant amount of light in a compact, lightweight, and stylish design. You can easily adjust the brightness from 0 to 100% in 0.1% increments, and with a simple twist, you can switch between warm indoor lighting and bright daylight with its CCT range of 2700K-6500K. The high SSI ratings of 84 (3200K) and 74 (5600K), along with a CRI of 96 and TLCI of 98, ensure that skin tones and colours appear accurate. It runs continuously on AC power with the included supply, and can also run on batteries using the optional FC PowerController. The light features intuitive onboard controls, Bluetooth compatibility with the free NANLINK app (for iOS and Android), and 2.4G wireless control. It also has a locking metal 3.5mm port for DMX/RDM control.
The FC-500B’s head and power supply are separate for lightweight use. The power supply includes a safety strap for hanging on a light stand, and a quick-release plate offers additional mounting options. It’s compatible with a wide range of light modifiers thanks to the standard Bowens mount, and it includes an integrated umbrella holder for more light-shaping options. This light is powerful, versatile, accurate, and user-friendly, all while being ready to travel in the included foam case.
