The Rotolight Smart Softbox for AEOS 2 LED Lightfrom Rotolight Smart Softbox for AEOS 2 LED Lightrepresents a genuine revolution in lighting control. It has been developed to save photographers and filmmakers both time and money by allowing users to electronically adjust diffusion, focus, and beam spread without the need for gels or additional modifiers. The front panel is an electronic liquid crystal display that behaves like a LEE 216 filter on an adjustable dial, providing 1.5 stops of electronically variable diffusion. Rotolight's innovative and patented technology changes the beam angle of the light from 50 to 140°, providing the flexibility of a soft output and a harder light source all in one.

The Smart Softbox can be controlled using the touchscreen on the rear of the AEOS 2 LED light panel or with the Rotolight smartphone app, free to download for iOS or Android.

Q: 1. Are these AEOS v2 lights or the v1?

A: These are the most current version of the AEOS fixtures.

Q: 2. What is the continuous output of the Aeos at distances 5-6' and 10'?

A: Unfortunately, Rotolight only lists the flash output at 3ft, 6ft, 9ft, 12ft, and 15ft, listing the f-stop in continuous mode, f-stop in flash mode, and Guide Number at varying ISO settings (the link to this chart is listed below). However, they only state the Lux output measured at 3 feet, which is listed as 5750 lux @ 3ft. If you need the Lux output for the other distances, you would have to contact Rotolight directly with your inquiry by e-mailing them at enquiries@rotolight.com to see if they have this information available.http://bit.ly/2oIamrw
