ikan ILED-MS Overview

ikan's Micro Spot On-Camera Light is a lightweight, cool-to-the touch, daylight-balanced, on-camera LED about the size of a small flashlight. The front of the light incorporates a lens system that creates a 30° beam angle providing a directional light well suited for on-camera use or also as a kicker light. The unit features a discrete on/off switch and is dimmable from 100 to 10% by using an integrated thumb wheel on the side.

Leveraging LED technology, the light only draws between 1 and 4 watts while producing its bright daylight-balanced beam. A removable barndoor setup features two solid doors for light control, a CTO filter, and a 1/2 diffusion filter. The doors, CTO, and diffusion fold over each other, allowing you to use both the CTO and diffusion at the same time. Although you can hold the unit in your hand, it does feature a built-in cold-shoe mounting foot that includes an integrated 1/4"-20 threaded mounting hole.

The internal battery charges in about 2 hours when using a readily available 5 VDC 1 amp USB charger.
The unit will run for between 90 and 120 minutes on a single charge.

question

what is the length of effective light beam?
Asked by: Anonymous
I need to cut the power back at 10-15 feet. Lots of range. The battery lasts over 60 min. To day I used it as a bounce light for 55 min. at full power with no loss.

question

Is this unit suitable for still photography?
Asked by: John
to photo small items, or to add a touch of fill light it's ok... super bright, but being that it's only one bulb and the light source is small it casts a hard light as it needs to be close.... limited use... got mine with a kit that included the small square ikan video light as well...mostly use for macro, or small table top work....

question

The rated CRI is quite low for a video light and would likely not render colors accurately. Any chance this is a misprint -- it seems quite low at well below 80 cri?
Asked by: Rudi H.
You are correct, the CRI is a bit low. This isn't meant to be a primary, production-grade instrument, but a quick and inexpensive item to throw into your travel bag, or the glove box in your car. You won't win any awards for excessively creative or inspiring lighting (probably), but you'll be able to shoot in the dark if you weren't quite prepared if you keep this handy.
