The FC series from Nanlite impresses with its aesthetics and outstanding performance. The design of the light head has been completely revamped, and the control and operation have been simplified. The FC series has an elegant and stylish appearance.
This series is perfectly tailored for content creators, photographers, and independent filmmakers, making it an essential tool in studios and live-stream scenarios.
The advanced FC-500C utilizes Nanlite's cutting-edge color mixing technology and improved algorithms. This allows for precise color tuning, akin to what is typically found in high-end spotlights.
The FC-500C has a rated power of 520 W, delivering an impressive light output of 57050 Lux at 1m (with reflector) at 5600K and is infinitely dimmable from 0-100%. With a variable color temperature range of 2700K to 7500K (BiColor), an RGB full spectrum (0-360), G/M: -150/+150, and saturation: 000-100, this light exceeds the demands of many videographers or photographers. The color rendering is excellent, with a CRI of 95, a TLCI of 94, a TM-30 Rf of 92, and a TM-30 Rg of 100, allowing for seamless handling of various lighting situations.
Five different operating modes are available: CCT mode, HSI mode, RGBW mode, Gel mode, and Effect mode.
The 15 built-in special effects, each with adjustable parameters, provide users with ample creativity, and the additional control options (On-Board, 2.4G, Bluetooth, NANLINK App, and DMX/RDM) complete the package. Firmware upgrades are possible via the USB port to stay up to date in the future.
The power supply is provided via the power adapter or V-Mount battery (through the optional FC Power Controller). The power adapter comes with a safety strap and a quick-release plate for easy mounting on light stands. The quick-release plate is available as an option.
The improved and adjustable cooling system features 4 operating modes: Smart, Full Speed, Low Speed, and Off. In Smart mode, the noise level drops to 29 dBA. Even in Full Speed mode, noise management has been significantly optimized. In noise-sensitive recording environments, such as during interviews, music videos, and TV commercials, there are no more issues with background noise.
A range of optional accessories is available for the FC-500C. These include the FC Power Controller (V-Mount), softboxes, Fresnel lenses, and much more. With the use of a Bowens mount and an additional umbrella connection, the FC-500C is compatible with a variety of light modifiers, including the Nanlite softbox series.
The included transport case has been completely redesigned and features a very nice design.
