The Bescor FP-180 Bi-Color Light Kitfeatures 180 LEDs, 90 daylight and 90 tungsten bulbs, providing variable color temperature from 3200 to 5400K. The unit incorporates separate dimmers for the tungsten and the daylight balanced LEDs, allowing you to precisely control the color balance. The unit features an on/off switch and provides a flicker free light that dims from 100 to 10% brightness and is flicker free at all dimming levels.

The FP-180 is powered by 8 x AA batteries, or you can use an optional power supply that connects to the unit's DC input jack. A diffusion filter and orange color correction filter are included to allow you soften or adjust the color temperature of the light. It features a 1/4"-20 threaded mounting hole that accommodates the included articulating arm (with accessory shoe mount) or the included metal hook so you can hang the light.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Does this light have a dimmer?

A: Yes this light does have a dimmer built into it.

Q: 2. Dumb question- Is this for video or still photography? Or both?

A: This on-camera light is intended for video but it could also be used for continuous lighting for photos as well.

Q: 3. Is there a Watt-equivalent brightness, for easy comparison with other lights? (I see the Lux rating, but it's less intuitive.)

A: FYI, after some digging and math, I calculated this to be about 156 Watt-equivalents (incandescent).But it could be higher if I'm not handling the light's angle of dispersion correctly.(I'm treating the quoted 200 lumens at 3.65m as a point spherical source. Casual intuition suggests that might not be correct for a panel light like this, ... but my cursory reading of the equations involved suggests that doesn't matter?)The math seems to be:(1) lumens = lux x distance (in meters) squared.(2) Watt-equiv = lumens/19.3+18 (more or less)*So, 100 lux x (3.65)^2 = 2665 lumensand 2665 lumens/19.3+18 = 156 Watt-equiv_____________________* The 2nd equation is my regression of some data I plotted from a DOE webpage.

Q: 4. how long is the battery life while using the light, before you have to charge it or replace it..

A: On a set of fully charged batteries and full brightness, 45 minutes is a good guess. If you come off full bright, you should get much more out of it up to 3 hours.

Q: 5. 200 Lux @ 12' computes to what at 3-4 feet? Would this light fill greatly at 3-4 ft. for outdoor interviews so that the sunlite background would not wash out?

A: Hello, if direct sunlite is at the background this 200lux won't help that much. Maybe it can fill something at 1-1.5 ft. Even tough at night time it works amazing. This is a music video I shot in NY with it shooting at ISO 1250 on a 7D.http://youtu.be/GCMAbuECBLMAll the best,@manuelhst

Q: 6. Do these have a rheostat on them? Adjust brightness? Color temperature?

A: Yes each panel would have a color temperature and dimmer dial built into them.

Q: 7. Can I use this product with my Sony video camera?

A: You can use it with just about any camera. The issue may be that your SONY camera does not offer a standard hot/cold shoe that will fit this light. We offer a simple bracket that will make this work for you:The Vello CB-510 Dual Shoe Bracket with Silicon Rubber Grip is a side bracket that attaches to the bottom of your camera and provides two cold shoes, one on top and one on the side, for attaching lights and other accessories. An included dual-purpose thumbscrew enables mounting the bracket along with a camera onto a tripod, fluid head, ball head or other gear. The thumbscrew features a 1/4 stud on top and a 1/4 female thread underneath. A silicon rubber grip will serve as an effective handle when you use this bracket solely with a camera, and as a pan handle when you mount it on a tripod. B&H# VECB510

Q: 8. What are the dimensions of the light? The specs only show the box size. Thanks much!

A: The light itself is approx. 4 x 6 inches.

Q: 9. what kind of battery fits this light unit cause it def isnt 8 AA batteries?

A: This light can be powered via the AC adapter that is included or with 8 AA batteries.

Q: 10. I see that the tripod stands go up to 74", but what would be the approximate footprint of each tripod?

A: The footprint diameter would be roughly 30" wide.
