Nanlite just got a bit brighter with the release of these two new bi-color LED spotlights as part of the FC series. These new lights should pack a punch and add higher-power options to the lineup than it had before, while also staying cost-effective and supporting large-scale applications like multi-person interviews, large livestream setups, product photography, and other photo and video needs.
Let’s look at the new lights, focusing on the slightly more accessible Nanlite FC1200B bi-color LED spotlight.
New Nanlite FC Series LEDs
So, despite the power increase, these new bi-color LEDs from Nanlite look similar to other options in the FC series: they’ll be versatile and ready for a lot of different project types. The FC1200B model, in particular, will be a powerful but compact, AC-powered light with a Kelvin range of 2700 to 6500K.
This FC1200B model should be unique in the FC series lineup, thanks in part to its innovative wing-shaped top housing, which should help it deliver impressive brightness and ensure faithful color reproduction with a CRI of 96 and a TLCI of 98.
Both new models should be highly versatile, featuring Bluetooth and 2.4 GHz wireless connections, plus DMX/RDM capability and smart fan modes, providing complete control over both light and sound.
The FC1200B will also be adjustable from 0 to 100% in 0.1% increments, and will be able to provide a powerful 140,580 lux at 3.3' with the included reflector.
