Metz Mecatech presents a compact, powerful LED video light housed in high-quality aluminum: The Mecalight S500 BC is 13 cm long and as flat as a smartphone. This makes it fit into any photo or pocket, making it a practical travel companion. It is ideal for travel vlogs, indoor video shoots without elaborate studio equipment, or as an addition for smartphone recordings.
With its bicolor capability and a color rendering index of ≥ 96, the Mecalight S500 BC can optimally illuminate various lighting situations and delivers realistic color results. Using pressure buttons, photographers or videographers can intuitively adjust the light's output and color temperature, which can be reliably read on the high-contrast OLED display.
The ¼-inch threaded socket allows the S500 BC to be mounted on a tripod or, using the included adapter, on the hot shoe of a camera. Also included is a diffuser that can be easily attached to the light with a silicone band. A spacer ensures that the light is particularly soft and reduces shadows on the subject.
