You may be considering this light for food or product photography, so here’s how you can change the look of the light to get a variety of photo options. There are a few ways of getting modifiers onto the light. The most basic is the umbrella slot in the stand mount, coupled with the standard reflector. You can use either bounce or shoot-through umbrellas for this. The first and foremost thought about using the SL60W is that what you see is quite literally what you get. No guessing or external metering required. Your in-camera meter will give an accurate reading and those on mirrorless with preview simulation on will see the shot in-camera before shooting (same for Live View users with Exposure Simulation on). the 10" front Fresnel element matches larger traditional Fresnel fixtures like tungsten 5Ks. The larger lens can even increase the output lux up to 10 times.

As the LED lamp is a combined controller chip and LED, it means the light has a high CRI, translating to accurate and consistent color in use. Rated at 5600k ±300, this is daylight balanced, which matches your midday light and any flashes you may have. By placing a shoothru umbrella on the light, you’ll get a softer light, but at the expense of lower power. This is because you tend to lose about two-stops of light when using any kind of diffuser modifier. This article needs additional citations for verification.

As an Aputure Fresnel, this modifier also uses dual-lens optical design, utilizing a condenser lens to refocus the light from a flat-chip COB LED to optimize it for the front Fresnel element, further enhancing the fixture’s illuminance. When combined with the Aputure LS 600d Pro, the fixture can output over 29,300 lux at 3 meters. The drop-in accessory slot is compatible with Aputure’s F10 Barn Doors, which provide 8 leaves made to properly cut light from the large Fresnel.

In 1963, Bowens invented the first electronic studio flash unit with its power source built into it. This became known as a monobloc (sometimes Monolite) which is now an industry standard tool. Dual Lens Optical System for Maximum Light Output: A rear optical element optimizes the beam angle of a flat- chip point-source LEDs for the front Fresnel lens. Who misses out? Ollie Watkins, Raheem Sterling, Eddie Nketiah, Callum Wilson, Jarrod Bowen, Cole PalmerWhile taking the look of a monobloc, the Godox SL60W is actually smaller than a typical studio flash head. It still weighs in at a hefty 1.6kg. First impressions of this light in the box were that it was a little smaller than I expected and that although it looked plastic, it looked well made.
