Viltrox VL 500T LED Light Duo Kit

Viltrox VL-500T LED Light Duo Kit light set

The Viltrox VL-500T is a round, thin and soft LED light panel that is ideal for portrait, macro and product photography. This two-light (Duo Kit) package includes high-quality light stands in addition to the lights, providing a ready-made and versatile lighting solution for photo and video photographers.

• Bi-Color color temperature: Continuously adjustable color temperature (3300 K – 5600 K) allows you to adapt the light to the prevailing ambient light, from warm incandescent light to cold daylight.
• High color rendering (CRI 95): Ensures accurate and natural reproduction of skin tones and product colors on camera.
• LCD display: The rear panel of the device features a high-contrast LCD display, from which brightness, color temperature, and battery charge status are easily readable and adjustable.
• Two power options: The lights can be operated either on AC power in the studio or with industry-standard Sony NP-F series batteries in the field.

From an optical and electrical engineering perspective, the Viltrox VL-500T utilizes Bi-Color technology, which consists of 106 LED components with two different color temperatures stacked inside the panel. When the user adjusts the color temperature of the device, the microcontroller changes the electrical voltage ratio between these two groups of diodes steplessly. The light softening itself is done by means of the panel's built-in diffusion layer. The diffuser scatters the photons produced by the individual LED diodes in random directions before they leave the luminaire. This optical scattering transforms the hard light of the point-like LEDs into a wide, uniform area light. According to the laws of physics, the wider the light source is in relation to the object, the softer (faded) the edges of the shadows it produces.

Mechanics and light stands:

The light panel is remarkably thin (only 2.4 cm) and lightweight (410 g), which minimizes the leverage effect on the stand. The DJ 640/192 light stands included in the kit provide a sturdy base for the lightweight panels. The stands' three-part telescopic tube structure (diameters 22 mm, 25 mm and 29 mm) ensures sufficient mechanical rigidity at its maximum height (200 cm), but folds down to a compact length of 67 centimeters for transport.
