Since its launch in early 2022, Kenro’s Smart Lite series has established itself as a firm favourite with customers, receiving great feedback across the board. The budget-friendly, high specification mini light panels are now joined by three new bigger, brighter models, suitable for every kind of filming and photography project.
Each of the three new lights offers precision control, featuring CRI (Ra) 96+, 0-360 degree RGB colour, 1-100% brightness and saturation control, 7500-3200K colour temperature, and nine pre-programmed special effects to simulate a range of tricky lighting scenarios. Built-in Bluetooth functionality allows them to be controlled by smartphone app, making them incredibly easy to use no matter where or how high they are mounted. The app is compatible with Android or iPhone, and features colour match technology to match the light colour to anything in your surroundings.
The pre-programmed special effects allow users to recreate lightning storms, a flickering screen, flames, and emergency services vehicles, plus the option to cycle through the RGB colour spectrum at two different speeds. With millions of colours to choose from and limitless creative options, Kenro’s Smart Lite series is ideal for enthusiasts and professionals alike.
