Dracast has put together this 4-light Remote Newsroom Studio Essentials Daylight Light Kit with V-Mounts for image-makers who need studio light quality with power options that they can take on the road. The kit includes two LED1000 Pro Daylight LED Panels and an LED500 Pro Daylight Panel, each light with a V-mount battery. A Dual V-mount Charger is included to charge the batteries. A LED160 Daylight On-Camera LED Light along with two NP-F 2200mAh batteries and a charger are provided, as are four 6' light stands and a hard, waterproof case for storage and transport.
At 5.4 lb the Pro Series LED1000 Daylight LED Light Panel from Dracast is an ideal choice for studio or location work where color accuracy, control, and flicker-free output are of major importance. This 12 x 12" panel is significantly larger than the Pro Series LED500 unit. The LED1000's daylight-balanced output is well suited to outdoor work or for color-matching HMI fixtures, while its high CRI of 96 renders colors with precision and fidelity. Dimming from 0 to 100% is conveniently done with a back-panel knob that adjusts the output with negligible color shift. The low electrical draw of 60W means a timely return on your investment.
The durable anodized aluminum frame is supported by a sturdy, U-shaped yoke with locking knobs on each side and a standard 5/8" receiver. This LED1000 can be used worldwide thanks to its 100 to 240 VAC power adapter. You can also use the onboard V-mount battery plate with 14.8 VDC batteries when mains power is unavailable. Accessories include optional 4-way barndoors for contouring and control of the LED1000's 45° beam angle. A carry case is included for convenient storage and portability.
