Lowel's new Blender� is the perfect solution for todays 'run & gun' video lighting needs. Twin array's of color accurate LED's, in daylight & tungsten color temperatures, are mixed via 2 rotary controls on the back of the unit and give the perfect blend of color to match a mixed light source environment.

Shooting in a daylit lobby with a hanging tungsten chandelier? Put beautiful fill-light on your talent that's all tungsten, or all daylight, or more importantly, that perfect mix of the 2 that suddenly makes your shot look naturally lit. Blender makes location lighting intuitive, just dial it 'till it's right.

The lamphead's compact size (4 x 3 x 3") makes it small enough to fit on a camera-top stud, or easily held on a pistol grip, or compact light stand. It can be powered by popular video camera batteries, or its own compact AC supply. Blender� comes with a selection of hard plastic front diffusers for softening & diffusing the mixed output. 1 & 2 light packs in carry bags are available, as well as a more traditional 1 light kit.

Originally designed by videographer Tom Robotham, the Lowel Blender is the location light your HD camera has been waiting for.
