B&H put together this Genaray Three-Point Lighting 36" Soft Strip 3-Light Standard Kit with Light Stands to offer image makers a full system of unique lights with configuration, mounting, and power options. The kit includes three of the 5600K lights with a CRI of 95 and a TLCI of 98.3. The 36" strip lights each come with barndoors, an AC adapter, a dimmer control box, a V-mount battery plate, and a heavy-duty, 9.5', air-cushioned, light stand. Three, filled, 15-pound sandbags are provided to stabilize the light stands.
Offering a soft wrap-around quality thanks to its long, narrow form factor and 256 bright LEDs, the 36" long Soft Strip LED Light from Genaray is a versatile fixture with features that are easy to use in the studio or on location. The light has color temperature that's a solid, daylight-balanced 5600K, with a high CRI/TLCI rating of 95/98.3, an indicator of precise color rendering. Using the included dimmer, light intensity is variable from 100 to 10%, avoiding moving the fixture back and forth to achieve the desired illumination level.
The SSL-36 runs barely warm to the touch, allowing you to work close to the subject without causing discomfort or hot light hazards. The power-saving light produces an output of 1284 lux at 3' while consuming just 56W of power, helping you keep the temperature of your set and your operational costs down.
The long strip fixture can be used vertically or horizontally for dramatic results. In vertical orientation, the SSL-36 is ideal for use as a sidelight or for dramatic lighting. It also creates long, elegant reflections when shooting products. In horizontal mode, the light has a wrap-around quality with appealing falloff at the top and bottom of the frame. Another use is overhead as a hair light.
The SSL-36 has a beam angle coverage of 68 degrees, which can be modified and controlled by its two-way barndoors. The fixture comes with a multi-voltage adapter that makes it ready for world use, but it can also run on optional V-Mount batteries when AC power is unavailable. A carrying case is included to store and transport the light.
This Impact Heavy-Duty Air-Cushioned Light Stand is a black anodized aluminum support that rises to a height of 9.5' and folds down to 42" for storage and transport. The stand will handle up to 22 lb and is topped with a removable 5/8" spigot with 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threads. It has a wide footprint of 52" for greater stability. Air cushioning gently lowers the light when making height adjustments to protect equipment and fingers.
Made of thick, weather- and water-resistant Cordura nylon, the 15 lb Filled Orange Saddle Sandbag from Impact is a staple in studios or on location for stabilizing light stands, booms, tripods, and backgrounds. The bag has rugged and durable assembly throughout. It features a double-zipper design for safe containment and removal of the sand, as well as a webbed handle for hanging or moving.
This sandbag is made with bright orange fabric for high visibility, both on set and on location.
