Zylight NewZ Overview
The Newz LED On-Camera Light from Zylight is an on-camera LED light with variable color temperature that can be dimmed from 100 to 0%. With a range of 3200 to 5600K, you can easily use this light for interior and exterior productions. It achieves a CRI rating of 95, which provides excellent color reproduction. With an IP54 rating, the Newz is suitable for use in wet, snowy, and dusty environments. The light draws a maximum of 17W and has an input voltage range of between 5 and 20 VDC.
The light fixture mounts to your camera via a quick release 1/4"-20 threaded mounting stud with integrated D-Tap power cable. An integrated articulating arm allows you to mount the light low and tight on your camera or position it forward on your camera without having to change the attachment point. The arm incorporates a quick release function, enabling you to quickly remove or re-mount the light without having to unscrew the 1/4"-20 mounting block. Incorporating ZyLink Wireless allows you to either slave multiple Zylight fixtures together so that they mirror each other or control your fixture using an optional ZyLight remote.
ZyLink wireless means every Zylight can talk to any other Zylight from up to 60 feet away. You can set up a group of Zylights to key light a subject or wash a wall with color and then adjust their intensity from across the set while watching the monitor. This allows you tremendous remote control capability since they can be easily linked together to act in concert as if they were one unified source. Adjustments made on one light change all lights in the group, or you can use an optional remote control unit. A choice of ten wireless channels allows you to isolate lights from each other if the need arises.
Quick release mounting allows you to quickly attach/remove the fixture to/from your camera, while leaving the mounting foot and power cable attached to your camera. This can speed up the time it takes to prep the camera and wrap your package at the end of the day.
Removable barndoors allow you to have control over your light's spill.
The Newz features individual control knobs for color temperature and brightness.
