Dracast Pro Series LED1000 Tungsten LED Light Panel (V-Mount)
Key Features
  • For Live Events, Broadcast & Video
  • Output: 6885 Lux at 3.3' (3200K)
  • 3200K CCT
  • 12 x 12" Panel; AC/DC Operation
At 5.4 lb the Pro Series LED1000 Tungsten LED Light Panel from Dracast is an ideal choice for studio or location work where color accuracy, control, and flicker-free output are of major importance. This 12 x 12" panel is significantly larger than the Pro Series LED500 unit. The LED1000's tungsten-balanced output is well suited for color-matching other tungsten fixtures, while its high CRI of 96 renders colors with precision and fidelity. Dimming from 0 to 100% is conveniently done with a back-panel knob that adjusts the output with negligible color shift. The low electrical draw of 60W means a timely return on your investment.

Dracast LED1000 Pro Tungsten Overview

By B&H Photo's

At 5.4 lb the Pro Series LED1000 Tungsten LED Light Panel from Dracast is an ideal choice for studio or location work where color accuracy, control, and flicker-free output are of major importance. This 12 x 12" panel is significantly larger than the Pro Series LED500 unit. The LED1000's tungsten-balanced output is well suited for color-matching other tungsten fixtures, while its high CRI of 96 renders colors with precision and fidelity. Dimming from 0 to 100% is conveniently done with a back-panel knob that adjusts the output with negligible color shift. The low electrical draw of 60W means a timely return on your investment.

The durable anodized aluminum frame is supported by a sturdy, U-shaped yoke with locking knobs on each side and a standard 5/8" receiver. This LED1000 can be used worldwide thanks to its 100 to 240 VAC power adapter. You can also use the onboard V-mount battery plate with 14.8 VDC batteries when mains power is unavailable. Accessories include optional 4-way barndoors for contouring and control of the LED1000's 45° beam angle. A carry case is included for convenient storage and portability.

Dracast LED1000 Pro Tungsten Reviews

Great quality!

By Miss Mary
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2014-10-30

I'm no stranger to video production equipment in my line of work, but this is simply the best LED light I've ever come across. Sometimes I'm on the set for hours at a time, but this light never fails me in terms of accurate color rendering, no matter how long I run it. I've never gotten any flicker from it, either, and I've tried a lot of lights in my time! The best part is that it doesn't get super hot, meaning no one is sweating on camera and getting super uncomfortable. For my money, I definitely recommend the Dracast LED 1000. It's been a lifesaver!

Do these have the LCD screen on the back?
Asked by: Dan
Based on the description and the information from the company site, it should not. The "Plus" version should. On the other hand, I ordered the "Pro" as a kit but got what appear to be "Plus" lights as they have the LCD display. Not that it matters, the LCD readouts are not accurate enough for the information to be of any use. You will need a colorimeter if you want to know what colour temperature you are at.

If needed, is U.S. repair available for these lights? I have two lights from another manufacturer that I have to throw out because they do not have repair services. Not going to buy from a company like that again.

question

How long does the battery last?
Asked by: Anonymous
It depends on the battery.All the batteries for any of our lights come in a variety of capacities.The basic formula is: One Watt-hour (Wh) powers one Watt for one hour.So for the LED1000 Pro (all versions), which pulls 60 Watts, if you had a V-mount battery that had 90 Wh, it would power the light for approximately 90 minutes at full brightness (more if the light was dimmed down at all). // Also, if there are any other technical or product related questions, feel free to contact us directly at any time at [email protected].
