Nanlite FC-500B Bi-Color LED Spotlight

The Nanlite FC-500B is an AC-powered, bi-color LED spotlight that provides an immense amount of light in a compact, lightweight, and stylish package. You can quickly fine-tune the dimming from 0 to 100% in 0.1% increments, and with the twist of a knob achieve a wide range of looks, from warm indoor tones to bright daylight with its CCT range of 2700K-6500K. The high CRI rating of 96 and TLCI of 98 means your skin tones and other colors will always be accurate. It has easy-to-use onboard controls, Bluetooth for the free NANLINK app for iOS and Android, and 2.4G for more wireless control options. A locking, metal 3.5mm port even lets you control with DMX/RDM.

The head of the FC-500B and the power supply are separate, so each can be as lightweight as possible. The power supply has a safety strap to hang it on a light stand, and a quick-release plate is provided for more mounting options (clamp sold separately). A wide range of light modifiers are compatible with its standard Bowens Mount, and an integrated umbrella holder provides more light-shaping options. The FC-500B is powerful, versatile, accurate, and easy to use. Plus, it’s always ready to travel in the included foam case.

Bi-Color with a Vibe
Capable of delivering impressive brightness in a wide range of useful color temperatures, the Nanlite FC-500B makes your on-camera subjects look their best—while the physical design adds its own vibe to your set.

Lighting Made Easy
With a 2-inch screen and easy-to-master controls, the FC-500B helps you achieve professional-looking results quickly. Pressing the right knob hops to popular color temperatures, and Bluetooth lets you take command with your phone. Smart fan modes give you total control over on-set sound. It has 12 built-in effects and you can make your own and save them as presets in the app.

Advanced Details
Rapidly adjust the angle the beam with its 360° rotating yoke and single-sided, stepless lock. Maximum Output Mode unleashes full power, and Constant Output Mode keeps the same intensity when you change color temperatures. A USB port allows future firmware updates so new features can be added.

Travel-Ready Case
A crushproof, shockproof, corrosion-resistant, and form-fitting carrying case is included with the FC-500B, so you can safely travel and store when not in use. The FC-500B is AC-powered, and a battery-power solution will be available soon for shooting on location.

Quality Construction
Like all Nanlite products, the FC-500B is built to high standards throughout and it’s the little details, like the glass-protected light source, that make a big difference in long-term reliability.
