Review Summary

First, the light feels very sturdy and built well. The emitting light is nicely dispersed and flattering. The temperature read out is slightly disappointing in which it does not give a numerical read on the temperature but shows an increase or decrease in bars depending on the desired color temperature. However, it starts at 3200K and increases incrementally to 5600k. Fortunately the level of exposure appears numerically in percent form as you increase or decrease the intensity. The dial which controls both the intensity and the color temperature is easy to access and rotates very easily. Bonus: the light comes with both a v mount and an anton mount. The anton mount is the default receiver. When assembling the v mount to the back of the light, there screws appear to be longer which prevents the v mount to sit firmly. The barn doors are firm and there is the option of removing the silver liners on each barn door panel (according to Ikan, it will reduce your light by 10%). Keeping in mind that this is a soft light and the light is dispersed evenly, the barndoors do not block light adequately and creates a graduated lighting effect. The remote is niffty to have however if there are similar lights or even the Rayden light panel, the remote will adjust intensity and color temp. on all the lights at the same time. Unfortunately, Ikan did not provide a selector on the light that would allow light to be controlled individually. Two velcro straps are included, one for strain relief and a thinner one to attach the remote to the yoke. The yoke is a solid and beefy providing good support for the light. The receiving end is a 5/8 opening is complimented with a full sized grip to tighten to the light stand. Ikan provides a 6 foot power cable along with a power supply and a 4 pin that powers the light.

Ikan introduces the new brand of Lyra soft lights! What you can expect when high CRI LED chips combined with a soft panel is a beautiful, soft wrapping light. What's unique about a Lyra soft light is how it creates a nice, clean shadow. The Lyra Half x 1 soft light is equivalent to a 350-watt incandescent soft light. Among its features include a 5600K color temperature, which delivers stunning high color fidelity. The 110-degree wide beam angle can easily light a large area by itself. The 30-degree yoke, baby 5/8" and junior 1 1/8" combo pin also allow you to configure or attach them to any stand. Additionally, the yoke's strong steel tension knobs can securely lock the light in place at any angle.
On the back, the large yellow control knob lets you adjust the light's brightness and DMX channels with just a few simple clicks. The LED readout provides extremely precise measurements for reference. Battery flexibility is guaranteed with AB and V-mount pro battery plates included. You can also plug in the Lyra soft light practically anywhere thanks to its maximum 40-watts at 0.3 amps! Add to that Ikan's reliable barndoors with intensifiers and you can clearly see why Lyra soft lights are the best value package!
