The RL48-B’s 48 daylight-balanced LEDs provide a constant light source that is gentler on the eyes making it especially helpful for subjects prone to blinking during portrait shoots, while also minimising red-eye. The ring-shape produces a 140° beam, wrapping light around subjects and producing a shadow-free effect. This even distribution produces great results for both still and video applications, including portraiture, Vlogs, macro, and product photography.

The RL-48 can be mounted directly over most external shotgun microphones, or to a standard accessory shoe, tripod, or light rack via the included stand.

Adjustable Colour Temperature and Intensity

The LEDs deliver a high Colour Rendering Index in the entire colour temperature range for realistic and essential colour reproduction.

A set of 3 CTO filters and 3 ND filters are included for calibrating colour temperature to 3200k, 4300k, 5600k or 6300k as needed, as well as a diffusion filter for softer light. The ring filters are stored in the back of the Rotolight and can be placed, either individually or in a combination, inside the clip-on transparent LED cover.

Efficient, Low Heat Generation

Compared to conventional light sources, LEDs produce insignificant heat, allowing talent to work at close quarters on long shoots without any discomfort. The low heat lighting also makes the Rotolight an ideal macro light for photographing plants and insects. The RL48 is powered by 3 AA batteries (not included) that provide up to 4 hours of use.

Rotolight RL48 Stand and Pouch
