PL-S300D Bi-Color Soft Light

According to the company, the new soft light features 1,200 SMD LEDs (SMDs are powered by five LED chips with 20-degree beam angles per chip clustered together, in contrast to normal LEDs, which use three to four high-powered LED chips with 25 to 40-degree beam angles).

The light is enhanced with an “organic light diffuser” made by S Polytech. SWIT states 10,000 Lux at 1 meter with this light and a 120° beam angle.

The panel in this light is designed for focused illumination with high intensity. SWIT mentions that each LED features its own dedicated “Fly-Eye and 45° reflector”. The 45° half-peak beam angle offers a balance between high illuminance and uniformity of the light spot. The light delivers 47,000 Lux at 1 meter.

Common features for both soft and hard lights

As the name indicates, these are 300W output lights. To maintain silent operation in studios, the fixtures are fanless and achieve this by having a passive cooling design. The color temperature range is adjustable from 2700K to 6500K. DMX allows easy control of dimming and color temperature. According to the company, energy efficiency was also in mind when designing these lights to reduce cost and carbon emissions.
