Adopting a familiar, intuitive form factor, the Nanlite FS-300 AC LED Monolight is a powerful fixture that employs COB LEDs with a color temperature of 5600K (for shooting in daylight-dominated environments) while its high CRI/TLCI rating of 96/98 is an indicator of advanced color rendering capability. The FS-300 is dimmable too from 0 to 100% without flicker, while it delivers an even light spread that thwarts hotspots when used in a softbox. A real asset in sound-sensitive environments, the FS-300 employs fan cooling for quiet performance.

One of the light’s handy features is its Bowens-style light modifier mount that not only allows use of Nanlite light-shapers, but also those from the many manufacturers that use this popular mount. Another bonus is the FS-300’s 11 special effects that include Loop, Flash, Pulse, Storm, TV, Paparazzi, Candle/Fire, Bad Bulb, Fireworks, Explosion, and Welding. The light is ready for worldwide use thanks to its 100 to 240 VAC power supply. It is provided with a reflector and a 4.5 m power cable.
