OWNER NOTES

This is a terrific, brand-new FSB-8 head with Flowtech 75 legs. This is a super smooth lightweight head for cameras in the FS7/FX9/C300/C500 etc weight range, even fully rigged. The new Flowtech design makes it way easier to adjust than traditional tripods, especially for a solo operator.

*2-light kit — get 2x everything listed below*
These are great lights — super compact, full-color 2x2 fixtures with built-in diffusion and grids to make a soft, easy to control source. They make a beautiful light, very high CRI, and are full-color adjustable for that sweet modern saturated color.

I have 2 of these, each in its own case. They pair great with my Intellytech LiteCannon — see my other listings.

From the manufacturer:

The LiteCloth LC-160RGBW 2 x 2' Foldable LED Mat Kit with Gold Mount battery plate was put together by Intellytech for imaginative imagers-makers who require complete color control suited to their specific needs, as well as the ability to enhance the quality of light by literally shaping its source. The kit includes one LC-160RGBW 22 x 22" LED Mat, with a softbox, diffuser, fabric grid, AC adapter, and a mounting bracket. A hard travel case is included for storage and transport.

The 22 x 22" LC-160RGBW LED LiteCloth is a lightweight fixture that folds down to just 12 x 12" for storage and transport. The light has an impressively wide variable bi-color range of 3000 to 10,000K, allowing it to meet the challenge of ambient light conditions, match other fixtures, or just to shoot creatively. It is also capable of RGB adjustments in single increments and saturation control that allows you to gain access to literally millions of color combinations. Light intensity is variable too, from 0-100%. Both functions can be controlled on the LC-160RGBW, remotely via DMX, or wirelessly with an optional remote controller. The LiteCloth Mat comes with a softbox to take the edge off the bright LEDs, while the included fabric grid narrows the light's beam, adding directional control for selective lighting. The LC-160RGBW is ready for worldwide use thanks to its universal AC power supply, but you can also run it on Gold Mount batteries when mains power is unavailable.

RGB and Bi-Color - Wide Color Range with High Accuracy
The LC-160RGBW has both RGB and Bi-Color LEDs (3000-10,000K) combined on the LiteCloth 2 x 2 mat. Fine tune adjustments can be made in increments of 1 to your tungsten / daylight selection to match other lighting sources, while saturation control gives you access to literally millions of color combinations. Select your color or brightness level (0-100%) via the touchscreen or knobs.

Folding Design - 1 x 1 to 2 x 2 in Seconds.
The LC-160RGBW has a firm backing behind the Mat, but can also fold down at its collapsible cross sections. This allows the light to be mounted quickly without the need for a metal frame or x-bracket, allowing users to travel with a 2 x 2 light kit that takes up less space than a conventional 1 x 1 panel.

Quick and Intuitive Mount
The included mount securely attaches to the rear of the unit via high-strength touch-fasteners. Like the Mat, the Bracket also folds down, which allows it to pack easily into the included carrying case.

Portable Power and Control
Power the LC-160RGBW either with the included AC Adapter or via an optional 14.8V Gold Mount battery.

DMX Ready
Brightness and color can be controlled remotely from a console via DMX for studio work. An optional remote control presents a wireless option.

Quick and Convenient Controls
The LC-160RGBW Ballast was designed to give users fast, intuitive controls for each aspect of the light. You can jump to each function with the press of a button. Controls include CCT (Kelvin selection), Dimming, Channel, Preset, Red, Green, and Blue.

Joe made renting a breeze, his gear is top notch, his customer service is great, informative and fast. Highly recommended!

Exactly what we needed. Thank you!

Really knows how to make documentaries look great. Very good about showing what his gear is best for.

FANTASTIC key light [1.6K Light Cannon (with included octobank softbox using two step diffusion)] good 2nd and 3rd smaller lights... You can use the key/cannon light by itself = for an interview against a seamless backdrop because it's so powerful/soft that there are barely any shadows on the background.

great kit, would rent again!thank you!

Always good quality gear and most importantly great contact organizing pickup/drop off from Joe and his crew.

Very down to earth and knowledgeable in his craft. A great person to work with and look forward to in the future.

Joe was very accommodating for my pickup and drop off. Equipment was in great shape and worked well. I only wish I had been told that the fan needed to be turned on to take the light to full output.
