Westcott has put together the 1 x 2' Flex Cine Daylight Mat 1-Light Set to serve as a core setup that's ideal for product, e-commerce, and portraiture. The kit includes one 1 x 2' Daylight Mat, a dimmer, an AC adapter, a power cord, and a shoulder strap.
This 1 x 2' Westcott Flex Cine Daylight Mat produces 3800 lux of daylight-balanced light with a nominal beam angle of 140°. This flexible mat features hook-and-loop fabric edging, as well as grommits for mounting, and it incorporates magnetic metal-capped corners allowing you to easily mount it on virtually any metallic surface. The flexible design enables you to shape the mat so that it produces a beam angle from 360° when rolled into a cylinder, to 140° when laid out flat.
The daylight color temperature makes a good match when shooting exteriors, or interiors with daylight sources, while the high CRI and TLCI provides excellent color reproduction. The mat is capable of producing flicker-free output from 1 to 100% of its brightness when connected to a Flex Cine Wireless Dimmer (not included). For the mat to function you will need to connect it to a Flex Cine Wireless Dimmer, and power it with a 26V V-mount battery or power supply.
Compatible with any Flex Cine Bi-Color or Daylight LED mat up to 1x2', the Flex Cine Dimmer from Westcott is also backward compatible with Flex 1x1' and 1x2' mats using an optional legacy TE-9 pin adapter. Not just a dimmer that can adjust light intensity from 1 to 100%, the flex dimmer is also a controller that can vary color on bi-color mats from 2800 to 6000K.You can make adjustments locally on the unit. While the dimmer can run on wall current via its included AC adapter, it can also be powered (and power your light) by 14.4 to 26V batteries, thanks to its built-in V-mount battery plate. The dimmer has 1/4"-20 female threads for mounting as well as a removable shoulder strap for hanging on a light stand.
