FotodioX C-700RSV FlapJack LED Bi-Color Edge Light (18")
Key Features
  • Variable Color Temperature: 3200-5600K
  • 10-100% Dimming
  • 778 lux 3200K, 865 lux 5600K @ 3.28'
  • High CRI: Approx. 91 to 93
The 18" diameter C-700RSV FlapJack LED Bi-Color Edge Light from Fotodiox is a light source that uses Edgelight technology that entails pointing LEDs toward the outer edge of the fixture and reflecting them back toward the middle for ultra soft results. This versatile light also has color that's variable from 3200 to 5600K while maintaining a CRI of 91 to 93 for faithful rendition of colors and even the subtlest hues. It's dimmable as well from 10-100%. A back-lit LCD indicator shows light level, color temperature and battery life status. At only 1/2 inch thick the C-700RSV fits where other lights just can't go. And you can work close-up too, without fear of causing the talent discomfort since running the light all day at full power barely makes it warm to the touch.

The FlapJack can be used anywhere in the world thanks to its 110-240 VAC multi-voltage power adapter. The fixture also comes with two NP-F960 type batteries for total wireless freedom. The battery gets about 2 hours 11 minutes run time at full power. Besides battery and AC power options the FlapJack comes with a mounting yoke for a 5/8" light stand stud and a custom fitted case for storage and transport.

Purchased for Multi-city "headshot tour"

By Michael
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2023-05-09

I needed a soft, flattering, even light for a multi-city headshot tour of 8 offices, 13 days of shooting, across the country for a major financial firm. These lights delivered. While larger than I'm used to traveling with, the extra weight was worth it. Durable. I am not easy on equipment, these shrugged off my carelessness. Results for the portraits? Post production consisted of a little cropping. No hot spots, even on shiny skin types. Even color temp, even "duration " of light- they were consistent, which is what I needed. I paired them with two smaller LED back lights/ hair lights, results were exquisite. Best LEDs I've used to date, and I've used A LOT of LEDs across multiple brands, ranging from pro level to cheap "need an extra light" consumer level.

An Excellent Multi-Tasking Soft LED

Between our three griptrucks we have no less than 12 of these lights. Color rendering on Flapjack is quite good and to my eyeballs largely match Arri L-series, Skypanel and DMG Lumiere. Flapjack is also robustly built. 2 of our first gen Flapjacks have lost a section of ribbon and are now worklights. The newer version of Flapjack, however, is solid and reliable.

really unique light....very little difference across the surface but you can feather the edge of the light to minimize the falloff if you wish......bright enough for lots of uses

Great soft light

Great for on the go interviews where you don't want or need to set up elaborate lighting. Just plug it in or use the batteries, turn it on, adjust your settings. Nothing else you can really do which is good if you just want to get to shooting. Just don't expect to modify the light and use as is. Its not a one size fits all light. If you find yourself in tight spaces and need a soft light to get the job done, nothing else is like it. Perfect light for small offices spaces. I have yet to use it for web camera purposes, but I would image this could clamp onto a desk in some fashion and be a wonderful light for that. It does weight enough to be mindful of how you clamp it. Do it right, do it safe. As far as power of the lights go, they are adequate. Don't expect to overpower the sun, but more then enough for indoor use. Don't expect to put these lights far away from your talent though. They do run on batteries. Don't expect that kind of power.

cool light

this is a really cool product......I use 2 of these plus one of the 10 inch versions and a couple of ring lights in a portrait setup......the 2 18 inches are key and fill.....the 10 inch is a kicker/hair light and I use the ring lights to basically bump up the overall exposure......essentially these are round soft boxes.....absolutely flat output across the surface and in today's world with higher acceptable ISOs really nice......I work with a group of photographers who photograph together.....using continuous lights is easier than flash because we don't all shoot the same brand and would have to change triggers .......highly recommend...

Beautiful Even Stunning Light Creation.

I use these lights for photo and video. The light is so clean, soft and even. It falls so nicely on the face. I even use it for some product photography. Comes with a nice case, batteries, AC plug, etc. I now own 6 of these lights and have them on various project sites for my photography business.

To get the most out of the battery life during a 2+ hour shoot of multiple testimonials, should I turn it down between subjects or turn it off?
Asked by: Susan
Never hurts to save batteries. We own 2 of these. One has a short and will flicker. We just put it on shelf. It's a total drag because I love the quality of the light, the portability, etc, but the manufacturing is not great.

Is there a compatible grid/softbox accessory to narrow the beam angle to limit spill?
Asked by: Craig
There is not but this will work just fine. I bought one and it will attach to the edge light with two plastic alligator clamps all day long. It works great https://www.bhphotovideo.com/find/order-history.jsp#/856900950I
