In the ever-evolving world of videography and photography, finding a powerful yet compact lighting solution is a perpetual quest for creators. The NEEWER FS150B 130W Bi-Color LED Video Light emerges as a game-changer, combining exceptional brightness, precise dimming, advanced control options, versatile mounting, and dual power sources. This article dives into each facet that makes the FS150B a formidable tool for content creators across various genres.
1: Powerhouse in Miniature - The 130W Compact Marvel
At the core of the FS150B's brilliance is its utilization of premium and highly efficient COB LEDs, delivering an impressive 130W output without any flicker. This compact powerhouse achieves a maximum illuminance of 72000lux at 1m, making it ideal for a myriad of applications, including portrait photography, interviews, YouTube/TikTok video recording, filming, live streaming, and studio production. Weighing merely 3.8lb (1.7kg) and measuring 7.9"x5.1"x4.7" (200x130x120mm), the FS150B's portability is matched only by its exceptional performance.
2: Precision Illumination - Bi-Color Light with PWM Dimming
The FS150B goes beyond standard dimming capabilities with its PWM dimming technology, allowing for precise adjustments from 0 to 100% in 1% increments. Four dimming patterns (exponential, logarithmic, S, and linear) provide flexibility to meet diverse lighting requirements accurately. With a high CRI of 97+ and TLCI of 98+, the FS150B ensures faithful color rendition. The color temperature range of 2700K-6500K offers warm and cool lighting options, while 12 special effects add a creative touch to videos, making them distinct and engaging.
3: Advanced Control at Your Fingertips - Infinity App & 2.4G Wireless Control
The FS150B sets itself apart with its advanced control options. The NEEWER APP facilitates group control, OTA firmware updates, and various functions such as Light Source, Source Match, CTO/B, FX Music, and more. The built-in 2.4G system supports group control across different models within a 49ft (15m) range. Setting lights on the same channel allows seamless control, making the FS150B a versatile tool for creating dynamic lighting setups with ease.
4: Mounting Versatility and Silent Efficiency - Standard Bowens Mount & Silent Fan
Equipped with a standard Bowens mount, the FS150B is compatible with an array of light shapers, including softboxes, snoots, and beauty dishes. The included reflector with a scale pattern interior ensures an even distribution of light. The umbrella socket further enhances versatility. Silent shooting environments are maintained by the shell's silent cooling fan, which adjusts based on the working temperature, ensuring both effective heat dissipation and quiet operation.
5: Uninterrupted Brilliance - Dual Power Sources with Cable Lock
The FS150B prioritizes uninterrupted illumination with dual power sources. It can be powered through the included power adapter and cord (US Plug) for continuous operation. The XLR power input features a cable lock mechanism, preventing cable loosening and ensuring constant, reliable illumination. Additionally, the FS150B offers the convenience of running on a V mount battery (sold separately), providing a cordless lighting option for creators on the move. The V mount battery's output voltage of 16.8V aligns seamlessly with the FS150B's power requirements.
