Continuous light sources are a vital component of any video production, regardless of its budget. They have long been a staple on the sets of feature films, commercials, and music videos. In the world of photography, the situation has been somewhat distinct. Flash lighting held prominence for years due to the limitations of regular incandescent bulbs, which failed to provide adequate light parameters. However, the landscape significantly transformed with the introduction and widespread adoption of LED lights. The new technology became the leading advancement in lighting equipment for both photography and video production.
Why are LED lights better?
LED lights have gained prominence in both film production and photo shoots due to their continuously improving specs, proven performance, and increasing power output. Unlike flash lighting, they provide a convenient preview of the final effect during shoots. Additionally, they offer a simple and efficient way to achieve captivating effects in recordings and photos. The LEDs used in Quadralite lights boast an impressively long lifespan, spanning tens of thousands of hours. Moreover, they feature a high Color Rendering Index (CRI) value, a critical factor determining color reproduction quality in both recordings and photos. Our comprehensive equipment selection ensures that photographers and filmmakers can readily find a lighting solution that aligns perfectly with their requirements and budget.
Professional LED COB filmmaking lighting
The lighting equipment industry's latest breakthrough, LED studio lights, share a remarkable likeness with studio flashes in terms of both their size and overall appearance. However, they provide a powerful, continuous light with adjustable intensity and, depending on the model, adjustable color temperature. These lights often allow you to attach Bowens mount light modifiers and accessories such as softboxes and bowl reflectors. COB (Chip On Board) type LEDs used in these lights provide a significantly stronger illumination compared to those used in LED panels. Quadralite studio LED lights range from 400 to 1000 watts, making them suitable for low- and medium-budget productions where LED panels may not be sufficient and the cost of renting halogen lights proves too costly.
LED panels in photography & video
LED panels have gained significant popularity in recent years, primarily due to their diverse range and versatile applications. They are available in a wide array of shapes and sizes, ensuring a broad selection of models for any film or photography aficionado. However, their size doesn't compromise their portability at all - even the largest among them can be effortlessly transported from the warehouse or studio to various shooting or recording locations.
The versatile use of LED panels
The vast majority of LED panels available at Quadralite Store use two types of diodes, both cool- and warm-toned ones. This enables you to adjust the color temperature of the light effortlessly, without the need for color filters. Additionally, certain models offer color versatility through RGB LEDs, allowing you to select virtually any hue you want. LED panels are not exclusively for professional productions like interviews, music videos, or commercial shots. They also prove incredibly useful for YouTube content, including unboxing videos, reviews and tutorials, as well as for Twitch live streaming. With LED panels, your on-screen presence can be enhanced like never before, providing a better viewing experience for your audience.
Creative lighting design with RGB LED tubes
Aside from the classic rectangular or square panels, Quadralite LED lights also come in a variety of other shapes. RGB LED tubes and wands are particularly popular for their exceptional practicality and portability as light sources. These devices allow you to effortlessly create any desired ambiance in your scene. Alongside power and temperature adjustments, they grant the freedom to select any light color through RGB LEDs. What’s more, they come packed with sfx presets such as thunderstorm, fireworks or police lights. With their built-in rechargeable batteries, these RGB LED tubes and wands can be used virtually anywhere, making them an excellent choice for outdoor filming and photo shoots. To add to their convenience, each of these lights can be controlled right from your smartphone using the Quadralite Light Controller app.
Selfie LED ring lights
A distinct kind of LED lights, LED rings have swiftly captivated the hearts of makeup artists and influencers around the globe. With their rounded design, these lights expertly illuminate the face, balance its texture and tone, and bathe it in attractively diffused light from every angle. Frequently used by all kinds of Instagram, Snapchat, and TikTok users, these lights infuse an extra layer of sparkle not only to makeup photos and videos but also to selfies and live streams.
LED bulbs - a budget solution for all
LED bulbs provide a pocket-friendly alternative for those seeking cost-effective lighting solutions for their videos and photos. Opting for these bulbs translates to significantly lower expenses compared to investing in LED panels or lamps. Despite their compact size, they offer a surprisingly ample light output, making them a practical choice for home photography or film studios. The Quadralite brand offers a selection of LED light bulb ranging from 20 to 45 watts, available in both classic and internally cooled designs.
