- No Longer Available
The Rotolight RL48 Interview Kit V2 combines 2 Rotolight lights, 2 stands, a filter kit, and a belt pouch into a compact lighting solution weighing approx. 1 lb.
The main features are 2 Rotolight RL48-B LED RingLight Stealth Edition lights. Each sports 48 ultra-bright Grade-A LEDs with an 80W equivalent. They can be attached onto camcorders and DSLRs for 4 hours of light without causing shadows or red eye. Weather-resistant, weighing 6 oz each, and each powered by 3x AA batteries, they can each be set up and fully functional within 3 seconds. Batteries are not included.
Rotolight RL48-B LED RingLight Stealth Edition
- Slides onto and firmly stays put on most shotgun mics. Or, with the use of a Rotolight stand (not included), it can mount onto DSLRs, camcorders, and other equipment via hot shoe or 1/4" - 20 stud.
- Contains a Filter-Holder. Included with every RingLight are 3 CTO filters and 3 ND filters which adjust color to 6300K, 5600K, and 4300K and 3200K.
- 110° beam angle produces a soft, naturally diffuse wide beam that eliminates shadows and red eye.
- Can be accurately dimmed over 1.5 stops with the use of included ND filters. A 1 stop and a .5 stop combine using two filters, one for each.
- A rubberized outer coating reduces reflectivity and acoustic resonance

Comments about Rotolight RL48 Interview Kit V2:
I am about to shoot a documentary in Thailand. I needed a lighting kit that was compact, powerful, and had plenty of options for me to work with. The Rotolight RL48 Interview Kit is all that and more. These compact, yet powerful, LEDs fit right into my gear bag without taking up a lot of space. I also love the filters that come with the kit. They provide plenty of options for different lighting situations. The fact that they are battery powered is also a benefit. I don't have to worry about power sources while I shoot my documentary.

Comments about Rotolight RL48 Interview Kit V2:
This little light packs a punch! As a producer who does not like to use lights, the rotolight does the trick when it comes to brightening up faces without obstructing more intimate style shooting.

Comments about Rotolight RL48 Interview Kit V2:
Great to bring on location shoots - convenient, light weight, small, but packs a punch. Was pleasantly surprised and impressed with the lights and results it gave me. I pretty much leave my reflector at home and just carry this light with me. Great light for the price.
The pouch it comes with can store 2 lights and batteries easily. It's so light you won't even notice you're carrying it. Ring design is a smart idea - don't need to worry about extra pouches/cases for filters as it's stored right in the light.
I'm glad I got this as I'm constantly finding creative ways to use this light.
