This is a kit that includes a Nanlite FC-500C RGBW Color LED Spotlight, an AC power adapter, an FC PowerController that lets you use the light on battery power, and a padded case that holds it all. The FC-500C provides a significant amount of light output in 36,000 vivid colors and a wide CCT range of 2700K-7500K. The included power supply lets you run on a standard AC outlet, and the FC PowerController lets you run on V-Mount batteries (sold separately).
Colorful Power
When used on its own, or with creative tools like the PJ-BM Projection Attachment (sold separately) for making textures and sculpting light, the FC-500C opens up new possibilities for creating realistic motivated light and striking visuals.
Travel-Ready
A padded case is included, so you can easily travel and store when not in use. The FC-500C can be AC powered and you can also shoot on location using V-Mount batteries with the included FC PowerController (batteries sold separately).
Charge V-Mount Batteries
When plugged into an AC outlet, the FC PowerController will charge attached 14.4-14.8V and 26V V-Mount batteries.
Colorful Precision
The color LEDS on FC-500C make more features possible, like 151 gel presets, HSI Mode, and RGBW Mode where you control red, green, blue, and white separately. You can have confidence in the accuracy of the FC-500C with SSI ratings of 84 (3200K) and 71 (5600K), CRI of 95 and TLCI of 94, and TM-30 of Rf Average 92 and Rg Average 100.
Workflow Improvements
With a 2-inch screen and easy-to-master controls, the FC-500C helps you achieve professional-looking results quickly. Pressing the right knob jumps to popular color temperatures or hues, and pressing the left knob instantly dims to 0.0% and pressing again brings you back to your previous brightness setting. Bluetooth lets you take command with your phone or tablet.
Advanced Details
Rapidly adjust the angle of the beam with its 360-degree rotating yoke and single-sided, stepless lock. Smart fan modes give you total control over on-set sound. It has 15 built-in effects and you can make your own and save them as presets in the app. A USB port allows future firmware updates so new features can be added, and can power external DMX receivers (sold separately).
Quality Throughout
Like all Nanlite products, the FC-500C is built to high standards and it's the little details, like the glass-protected light source, that make a big difference in long-term reliability. The built-in 2.4G lets you use the WS-RC-C2 Handheld Remote when you'd rather not use your phone to control, and the WS-TB-1 Transmitter Box lets you control larger setups (both sold separately).
