At the end of last year, Aitus released its Nova series full-color LED flat light P300c brother model, P600c, using the same RGB 546 LED with warm white and cool white LED lamp bead scheme, following the first generation of high-explicit finger and all-aluminum hardcore integrated design style, but increased led flat area, support for larger 720W input power, and added a screen four-zone independent control mode, while obtaining greater illumination output, so that the dynamic light effects such as light, fireworks, and police lights are more realistic. It provides greater light and shadow expression for high-end film and television applications.
In the field of high-end professional film and television lighting, ARRI has absolute market leadership, whether it is from the lighting quality, control habits, leather durability or LED drive and control technology have advantages, its full-color flat-panel SkyPanel, six-color lamp bead COB orbiter, are leading the direction of industry development.
In recent years, the rapid development of domestic film and television lighting technology, whether it is the pursuit of high-density COB type light source of illumination output, or the pursuit of full-color light source of color expression, have launched a lot of cost-effective models, and the technology and design details used in many models are remarkable, not only to provide new choices for equipment leasing companies, but also to make high-end film and television lighting gradually into the vision of small and medium-sized teams.
P600c using RGBWW is more complex than RGB, or RGBW more complex LED bead arrangement technology, than RGB more than RGB 2500K warm white and 10000K cold white two kinds of lamp beads, participate in the mixing light source more, so can present a richer and more accurate color light, but also has a wider range of color temperature adjustment, the full color LED adjustable color temperature range extended to 2000K ~ 10000K.
The P600c has a wide color temperature adjustment space, covering the natural light color temperature of most time periods, as well as the color temperature of most artificial light sources. This means that we can use it to simulate sunlight around the clock, at different times. It can also simulate artificial light sources in various scenes, which can be well equipped for shooting work in various scenes.
Equipped with four-zone independent control technology, the P600c also has a richer special effect light, which can illuminate four different colors of color light in a single luminous surface, and can also make these four kinds of colored light undergo various transformations through settings. Compared with the P300c, the P600c adds 4 new lighting effects, face switching, replacement, gradient and one-way movement, with a wider range of use scenarios. Friends can use it to do some imaginative attempts in the process of shooting, and such ideas are more different.
P600c increases the luminous area by half compared to P300c, but the power is doubled and the brightness is doubled, so the irradiation range and irradiation distance are also larger, and it can play its role in a larger space on larger occasions.
The maximum output power of the P600c can reach 600w, and the maximum illumination of the standard soft version can reach 17500Lux at a distance of 1 meter at a color temperature of 5600K. It also supports 0~100% thousand graded light control, and can meet the needs of fine dimming with various curve adjustments. Overall, its lighting quality is very good, from the brightness, color and other aspects have a larger adjustment range, more fine adjustment gear, can meet the lighting needs of many situations.
P600c adopts the design of built-in power adapter, higher power directly leads to greater weight, P600c is equipped with a double-sided disc brake design, the lamp body frame adopts a standard 28mm male head and a real design, which needs to be equipped with a heavy lamp holder.
The integrated fuselage design in the complicated set can avoid the safety hazards caused by the split type. The P600c features a U-bracket design that increases the adjustable angle after loading the attachment. The top of the machine is equipped with a handle for easy handling.
The P600c control box can be installed in a variety of modes, which can be installed on the rear of the fuselage or on the light stand by a quick-release structure, or it can be installed separately during hoisting and then connected by a control line.
There are metal contacts between the P600c control box and the gusset of the lamp body, and the adjustment instructions can be transmitted through the metal contacts. After removing the control box, the control cable and the lamp body can also be connected for control.
The control box of the P300c has no metal contacts, whether it is to install the control box on the lamp body, or to remove the control, it is necessary to connect the cable to be able to control and adjust the light.
Lamps of this level of P600c can, of course, be controlled through the SIDUS LINK APP. Through the APP, we can control both a single luminaire and a networking control of multiple luminaires.
In the case of having multiple lamps, we can combine them into a light array, and use the APP to control the orderly change of all light colors, so as to show a more spectacular color lighting effect.
If you just want to achieve the most basic lighting through the lamp, if you are familiar with the color represented by various values, you can also directly complete the control of the lamp through the control box. P600c control box and the lamp body connected to the gusset plate has metal contacts, in the shooting can be directly buckled on the lamp body for use, the command of the control box will be transmitted to the lamp body through the metal contacts, no need to connect the control line, more clean and neat.
If you need to raise the lamp to a height that no one can reach, you can connect the lamp body and the control box with a wire, and lower the control box through a wired cable, which is convenient for us to adjust the light at a lower height. The control box is equipped with LED screen to display HSI, brightness, saturation and other values in real time, display the type of special effect light, there are also special physical buttons directly switched, you can also customize 4 presets, the luminaires for faster and more intuitive control.
As a professional film and television lamp, the P600c can of course also be controlled by DMX, and the dmX control signal is transmitted from the control box to the lamp body. In addition to receiving DMX signals, the control box can also loop out DMX signals, that is, we can connect multiple lamps in series through cables, and then only need to control this headlamp array through a DMX interface of the dimming table.
Flat lamp due to the large luminous area of the light itself is relatively soft, if combined with a soft light plate or box type soft light box can get a better soft light effect. The P600c has a wide range of soft light control accessories to choose from, four-blade light barrier, dual light stand, studio rack, softbox with grille, and a variety of degree grille, providing a variety of light control options.
Nowadays, creative advertising videos often add a variety of color ambient light, and full-color LEDs are the more commonly used tools in this scenario. P600c built-in HSI, RGB and XY coordinates and other adjustment modes, but also supports 300 kinds of industry standard paper, suitable for a variety of lighting engineers control habits. The P600c also holds G/M adjustment over a wide color temperature range, which can fine-tune and match multiple types of light sources on set.
In the current epidemic situation, many shooting locations are subject to various restrictions, which makes the demand for virtual shooting gradually increase. Even in the absence of virtual shooting conditions, simulating the scene with special lighting effects is a cost-effective solution.
Simulating some effects such as TV, paparazzi, light bulbs, candlelight and so on is not a problem for the P600c, and it is worth mentioning that its four-zone special effect light can be a good dynamic light effect or multi-color light effect, so as to obtain a more realistic sense of presence. As long as you dare to think and study, P600c can add icing on the cake to your creativity and play a finishing touch.
We have actually used the P600c in several commercial projects, in addition to lamenting its rich expressiveness, we have also found some small problems to share with you. P600c is really heavy and super fit! Lamp body jack is located at the bottom near the edge, if you do low angle lighting, the weight of the lamp body itself will cause pressure on the plug, increasing the probability of failure of the plug, it is recommended to adjust the position of the plug or make a protective frame.
Although I work with gloves most of the time, it is recommended to smooth out the edges and corners of the handle so that it feels more comfortable when carrying the lamp.
P600c is priced at early 20,000 yuan, which is affordable compared to the price of traditional international brands, but this price is high for entry-level LED lights. Some friends may ask if the extra price is worth it? For professional film and television teams, the demand for a creative tool has long been transitioned from function to stability, fault tolerance probability, process efficiency, etc., which is also the difference between high-end film-level cameras and ordinary cameras and micro-single cameras. For example, a small detail, P600c control box with Hall induction components, only in the case of correct contact contact is energized, can avoid short circuits caused by foreign body contact, and so on the P600c there are many small details, are usually seemingly useless, but at a critical moment can protect the equipment, to ensure the team's normal shooting of the "extra" design.
