Overview

The Nanlite FC-500B is an AC-powered, bi-color LED spotlight that provides an immense amount of light in a compact, lightweight, and stylish package. You can quickly fine-tune the dimming from 0 to 100% in 0.1% increments, and with the twist of a knob achieve a wide range of looks, from warm indoor tones to bright daylight with its CCT range of 2700K-6500K. The high SSI rating of 84 (3200K) and 74 (5600K), CRI rating of 96 and TLCI of 98 means your skin tones and other colors will always be accurate. It has easy-to-use onboard controls, Bluetooth for the free NANLINK app for iOS and Android, and 2.4G for more wireless control options. A locking, metal 3.5mm port even lets you control with DMX/RDM.

The head of the FC-500B and the power supply are separate, so each can be as lightweight as possible. The power supply has a safety strap to hang it on a light stand, and a quick-release plate is provided for more mounting options (clamp sold separately). A wide range of light modifiers are compatible with its standard Bowens Mount, and an integrated umbrella holder provides more light-shaping options. The FC-500B is powerful, versatile, accurate, and easy to use. Plus, it's always ready to travel in the included foam case.

Bi-Color with a Vibe
Capable of delivering impressive brightness in a wide range of useful color temperatures, the Nanlite FC-500B makes your on-camera subjects look their best—while the physical design adds its own vibe to your set.

Lighting Made Easy
With a 2-inch screen and easy-to-master controls, the FC-500B helps you achieve professional-looking results quickly. Pressing the right knob hops to popular color temperatures, and Bluetooth lets you take command with your phone. Smart fan modes give you total control over on-set sound. It has 12 built-in effects and you can make your own and save them as presets in the app.

Advanced Details
Rapidly adjust the angle the beam with its 360° rotating yoke and single-sided, stepless lock. Maximum Output Mode unleashes full power, and Constant Output Mode keeps the same intensity when you change color temperatures. A USB port allows future firmware updates so new features can be added.

Travel-Ready Case
A crushproof, shockproof, corrosion-resistant, and form-fitting carrying case is included with the FC-500B, so you can safely travel and store when not in use. The FC-500B is AC-powered, and a battery-power solution will be available soon for shooting on location.

Quality Construction
Like all Nanlite products, the FC-500B is built to high standards throughout and it's the little details, like the glass-protected light source, that make a big difference in long-term reliability.
