LED lighting fixtures are the future of photo and video illumination. LED is a powerful source of light that requires less electricity than most other types of lighting. Plus, LED monolights stay cooler to the touch during longer periods of use.
If you’re looking for a reliable lighting source with plenty of flexibility for a variety of applications, consider a monolight fixture or monolight kit. Choose from large LED light panels for an even wash of light, or more traditional monolights for improved customization and control.
For photography and video shoots in a dedicated studio or indoor location, powering your monolights is as easy as plugging the power cord into any standard outlet or running an extension cord.
Because most LED fixtures require minimal electricity to run, you can also use a battery pack to power your lights when you want to shoot outdoors or in locations lacking outlets. Some monolight fixtures use a proprietary battery while others will work with your choice of portable battery banks.
LED fixtures were once known for unattractive, unnaturally cool lighting. In the past, a distinct blue lighting cast required post processing or the use of color-correcting gels. Contemporary LED monolights feature calibrated daylight color temperatures, adjustable temperatures, and bi-color temperatures to flatter your video and photography subjects.
Most photographic lighting benefits from a range of accessories and modifiers to change the look and style of your lighting. Softboxes, umbrellas, and beauty dishes diminish hard-edged shadows, smooth the appearance of skin, and provide a more attractive lighting look.
If you’re interested in using these common and popular lighting modifiers with your LED monolights, make sure you select a fixture with an accessory mount. Bowens mount lighting modifiers are among the most common accessories on the market. By choosing monolights with Bowens mounts, you’ll vastly increase the potential of your lighting.
Godox, Frezzi, Dedolight, Aputure, Hive, Smith-Victor, AAdynTech, and Light & Motion lead the photography and videography lighting industry. These and other great brands are known for producing reliable equipment that balances design, capability, and functionality to help you achieve your lighting goals.
Whether you’re in the market for a large LED panel for TV interviews, a compact battery-capable monolight for shooting portraits on location, or a multi-fixture lighting rig to accommodate large-scale production, investing in monolights from these brands is always a wise decision.
