The light is a standard 3200K light, but is also avialble In a 5600K daylight option as well. The Vidnel 050 also touts a 96+ CRI, which means that Camera Operators will get accurate color replication for the most natural looking skin tone. It has flicker free dimming, which means when you dim there won’t be any color shift in the light as well. The light comes with optional barn doors and 4” gel holder. The light works great in a small environment, like that small conference room you have been put in for that corporate interview, because it has an internal thermal cooling system that doesn’t require any fans and allows for maximum LED output. It has a rear control that will work with a programmable DMX control unit.
