Multiple Modes for Efficient Operations
The FC-500C has five built-in lighting modes, offering almost limitless possibilities for lighting. All modes can be easily controlled through the intuitive user interface on the head, or via the NANLINK app. Users can effortlessly achieve the perfect lighting for their shoots by quickly adjusting color and effects at will.
CCT Mode:
The color temperature and Green/Magenta value can be accurately adjusted to reproduce various lighting effects or create different looks. HSI Mode: The hue, saturation and intensity of light can be quickly adjusted to choose from any one of 36,000 colors.
RGBW Mode:
This offers individual control of red(R), green(G), blue(B), and white(W) intensity, enabling a wide range of color options. Gel Mode: Select any one of 151 different gels. The base color temperature of the light can also be adjusted and the gel color is helpfully previewed on the light’s display screen.
Effect Mode:
15 effects are available and the parameters of each effect can be adjusted to achieve life-like lighting effects.
Multiple Control options
Adjusting and controlling the FC-500C is simple, yet highly flexible. All parameters can be accessed using the built-in control directly on the fixture body. Alternatively, the light offers both wired and wireless control options, perfect for when the lamp head is inaccessible, or control of multiple lights is required in more complex scenarios:
On-board Control: The FC-500C has an elegantly designed two-knob and two- button control layout, combined with a clear display to make setup straightforward.
FC PowerController:
The FC-500C can be connected to the optional FC PowerController for wired control at up to 3m away from the light. The display is duplicated on the controller allowing users to quickly and accurately set options. (Sold seperatly)
Wireless Remote Controller:
The FC-500C features a built-in 2.4G module, enabling quick and easy remote adjustments of various settings like CCT, HSI and G/M shift via the Wireless Remote Controller. NANLINK app control: The fully upgraded NANLINK 2.0 App delivers complete and intuitive touchscreen control for the FS-500C using a tablet or smartphone, greatly enhancing flexibility and usability.
DMX/RDM Control:
For more complex lighting setups the FC-500C is engineered with a DMX port. It can be connected to a DMX console via the DMX adapter cable with a 3.5mm connector, ensuring reliable control for multiple light fixtures.
Broad Range of Accessories
The FC-500C features a standard Bowens mount and an umbrella mount to attach light-modifying accessories. This ensures comprehensive accessory compatibility, allowing users to take advantage of the powerful point light source for light shaping.
Efficient Cooling
The FC-500C features a larger 11cm diameter fan that allows for efficient cooling at lower speeds. To minimize noise it has four fan modes (Smart / High Speed / Low Speed / Off) that allow the user to manage lighting and audio recording requirements.
In Smart mode, the fan automatically adjusts its speed based on the ambient temperature, allowing for 100% power output while limiting the noise level to around 29 dBA, making it suitable for professional projects.
- In Smart mode or Full Speed mode, the maximum output is 100%.
- In Low Speed mode, the maximum output is 50%.
- In Off mode, the maximum output is 8%.
Flexible Power Supply
The FC-500C supports DC 48V input and can be powered either by the included power adapter or the external batteries (sold separately). When used with the FC PowerController (sold separately), the FC-500C can be powered by one or two 14.4-14.8V/26V batteries, providing freedom of movement without the restrictions of needing AC power. This setup also ensures that lighting remains ongoing in outdoor or other environments without power access.
