It is rare that a product comes along that exceeds my expectations, but this is the case. This light alone paints the perfect softness across the face of the interviewee. I could literally put just this light up and have the perfect look for my client. Yes, I really do like this light.

Trusted by Professionals around the world the BladeLight uses LEE's Zircon 810 Diffusion to create an incredible Soft wrap around Light equivalent of high end Fluorescent lighting but with better color rendition and output to footprint. Choice of V-Mount or AB Mount Battery Plates.
Unique Linear Array
The BladeLight uses linear strips of high density, high power COB LEDs. The linear LED array includes a variable height lens to offer multiple beam angles of 120/60/20 degrees. The lens not only shapes the light but magnifies it for a brighter light.
Soft And Razor Sharp Light Control
The BladeLights unique length in 36" and 18" versions allows the BladeLight to act like a Longer tube fluorescent lighting solution. Placing diffusion on the Barndoors or Silks in front of the BladeLight create a much stronger Soft Panel LED lighting solution. Unlike standard Softpanel LED Lighting solutions, the BladeLight is also flexible to offer incredible sharp cuts, by shaping the light with the included Barndoors. Standard LED Panels have slotted shadows (Muliple shadows) when you cut the light with their attached Barndoors or Flags. Soft Panel LED's simply cannot have an effective cut, because of the nature of diffused light.
The BladeLight unique patent-pending linear design offers beautiful wrap-around light when positioned horizontally and infinite shadow control when turned towards a vertical orientation.
QUALITY LEDS The BladeLight is available in Daylight, Tungsten, Bicolor and Green versions for use with green screens. With the green LED version you can light a green screen 10 feet wide by 10 feet high with just two lights.

BladeLights are available in 18" and 36" inch lengths with 1,2 or three linear arrays per light. All lights can be attached either end to end or top to bottom to create a wider and/or longer light. The low profile design is perfect for lower ceilings offering unmatched light output and control in the tightest spaces.
