FotodioX LED-312DS Overview
The FotodioX LED-312DS Bi-Color LED Photo Video Light Kit is built around a powerful LED light panel that lets you adjust the light’s color output anywhere between 5600K daylight and 3200K tungsten color temperatures. The 312DS is compact and versatile enough for a wide variety of shooting scenarios, while remaining lightweight enough to bring along on every project. The kit includes two 2200mAh NP-F550 7.4V batteries, a dual charger, multi-voltage AC adapter, car charger, ball joint bracket with cold shoe, collapsible barn doors, slide-in diffusion and conversion panels, and a carrying case.
A full spectrum is offered full by 156 ultra-bright 5600K LEDs and 156 3200K LEDs, rendering soft light that’s ideal for location and studio productions for both photographers and filmmakers. Control features include 10-100% dimming via a simple control while a second control adjusts the color temperature. You can choose 3200K or 5600K or anything in between to balance with ambient light or other fixtures. Settings appear on a rear LCD panel display that also shows the remaining battery level.
The kit includes 4 way barndoors to control spill and sculpt the light. A diffusion panel is also included, as is a CTO conversion panel. Channels all around the light allow multiple 312DSs to be joined together for more power and a larger light source. The 312DS can operate with or without AC power thanks to the inclusion of an AC adapter and a pair of Sony NP-style batteries and dual intelligent charger.
