KAILITE HDV-Z96 LED PANEL LITE LIGHTING
12/03/2011
Ideal for DSLR HD visage and stills coverage the Kailite HDV-Z96 LED Panel Lite has 96 individual LED's with a wide 16:9 coverage. The light can be attached via the flash hot-shoe to your digital SLR and is supplied with a white diffusion filter for a softer light and a daylight to 3200k tungsten conversion filter which attaches magnetically to the front. Powered by either 5 x AA batteries (not included) or an optional Sony L-type fit camcorder battery (via the included adapter plate) the power can be altered via a dimmer switch between 25% and 100% for precise flicker free control. The HDV-Z96 has an expandable link system where you can attach multiple units together using the included link brackets. The unit can also work off camera and can be fitted to a light stand or via a flash gun stand positioned anywhere, on the case of the photo below it was camera mounted. Their are other LED systems on the market bit usually two to three times more expensive then the £149 price of the Kailite's. I purchased mine from Warehouse Express and can see them being a great addition to my kit, ideal for portraits, still life and to my surprise exterior photography!
