GVM 560-AS Overview

By B&H Photo's

This 560AS Bi-Color LED Panel 3-Light Kit from GVM features three 10.6 x 10.3 x 1.6" dimmable panels with adjustable color temperature. Each panel comes with a 6.25' light stand, a diffuser to soften the quality of the bright LEDs, and a multi-voltage AC adapter. Battery plates for two optional NP-F batteries are built-in, so you can use the lights anywhere, and in locations where AC power is not available. A carrying case for storage and transport is also provided.

Each panel is a compact light source with a wide color range from a warm 2300K to a cool 6800K to meet any ambient light challenge, match other fixtures, or just for creative expression. The light has high CRI/TLCI ratings of 97 to indicate accuracy in the rendering color. The 45° medium beam spread can be controlled with the four-way barndoors. Simply swing one or more of the barndoor leaves into the path of the beam to darken areas you don't want illuminated. The light is dimmable too, and while you can make adjustments locally on the fixture, you can also make them wirelessly with your phone via Bluetooth with the free GVM app that is compatible with iOS and Android. Each panel runs on 100 to 240 VAC using the included AC adapter, but it will also run on user supplied NP-F-type batteries when mains power is unavailable. The light comes with a diffusion filter to soften the bright LEDs, plus a case for storage and transport.

GVM 560-AS Reviews

Good for the price, but a compromise nonetheless

By Benjamen

As warned by other reviewers, the brightness can shift during use. I do like the option of using batteries, the barn doors are a nice addition, and the carry case is convenient.

Out with the old softboxs, in with the new LED Panel lights!

I hinted around to my fiance that I wanted some lights for my video setup and he gifted me with these. I'm impressed so far. The build quality of these lights are nice. The tripod stands feels very sturdy. Came with a carry case that is very light but durable. I cant wait to use them on my next project. Im excited!!!

Solid Continuous Video Lights

Solidly constructed panels, I use these for continuous video lights. I think these are the fourth lights I've tried & they are definitely more durable. No issues with switches or leds failing like I've had with other similarly priced lights. Color temperature adjustment is useful, but overall just happy that these haven't started to fall apart after two years of steady (average 12 hrs a week) use.

Very happy with this product

I purchased this item for work and it's served us well in both indoor and outdoor settings. I even used the set to illuminate a choir at an outdoor event this winter and it worked wonderfully. I also love the option of being able to use batteries or plug them in to power.

Great little lights, bad stands, worse bluetooth.

By Burnnie

It's so much easier toting a couple of panel lights around than strobe-style LED's. I have one of these mounted to the ceiling of my studio for ad-hoc video setups. But the app and bluetooth operation lacks severely. Why sell two lights if I have to constantly reconnect in order to control both of them? I would prefer it just had a wireless remote where I can set both to one channel and control them simultaneously or on different channels to control them independently. The stands they come with are just about pointless.

So Easy to Setup and Use-good lighting control

So, I just got these and set them up. It took all of 15 minutes for my first time, including connecting it to the App on my iPhone. I cannot express how simple they are to setup and use as well as the light control is really good.

Pouches are too small

Every time I use these lights, I spend 10-15 minutes fighting to get these back in the pouches. I wouldn't recommend this kit for this hassle alone.

These lights require a 110-130AC, 60Hz input. As long as your adapter can do the Hz as well as the voltage you should be ok.

Is the package weight in pounds?

Is the package weight in pounds?
Asked by: Lucho
That's what lbs means. Lbs is the abbreviation that comes from the Latin Libra, and the zodiac sign Libra, or the scales for measurement of weight. Libra translates as pound in Spanish and is considered the avoirdupois scale of weight measurement, compared to grams which are the decimal. Anyway the three light kit with stands and cords weighs 24 pounds (lbs.) or about 10 kilos. It is not heavy, due to the plastic light housing, not metal housing. They worked well for me on dozens of shoots where I had to set up a portable studio in various settings with the LED lights for key and fill for a two-shot in front of a green screen uplit by two fluorescent tubes. The adjustable intensity and color temperature was great, and if you buy the larger size lights you will be very satisfied with the lighting ability, the portability and the price.

The posting doesn't adequately show the lumens of the lights. What are they?
Asked by: Stephen
General answer: My very rough guess is that each of these lights outputs around 2600 lumens. That's based on a power draw of 30 watts and a comparison with the Nanlite LumiPad 25, which claims an output of 2140 lumens with a power consumption of 25 watts. It's also in rough agreement with what B&H's Reuben said in his response, given that tungsten lamps tend to produce about 15 lumens per watt.

Three to four pounds depending on whether you attach batteries or not. Worked fo rme, nice to adjust light color and intensity, 3000-5600K, used two for key lights and one for fill for two-shot with back fill on green screen. Nice and light lights, come with nifty velour bag that holds light and power cable. Jules Verne

Will these adequately light a 10' X 12' green screen?
Asked by: David
It will depend on camera settings and if you have the space to pull them far enough back for even spread and falloff. It will also be a matter of what lights are being used for the subject in order to have balance.
