As a background light, is it powerfull enough to color a background for portrait photography where keylight is a 400w flash?
Asked by: Robert
No, it is not. The Godox C5R Knowled RGB Creative LED Light is a continuous LED light, which cannot compete with the output of a 400W strobe light fixture. If you wish to use a background light with a 400W strobe, I recommend using another strobe with a gel with the appropriate color for your usage needs. LED continuous lights should be used with other continuous light fixtures. In order to use the Godox C5R Knowled RGB Creative LED Light with a strobe, you would need a long shutter speed for the light output from the Godox C5R Knowled RGB Creative LED Light to register on the background.

Asked by: seunghee
The metal construction of the Godox C5R Knowled RGB Creative LED Light helps with heat dissipation. It does not have a fan.
