I bought this and a portable 1000Wh power-station. It was still around 50% the cost of the forza 500, and I can power it longer than I could with v-mounts anyway!
@@johnnyweissmuller5838 How did you connect it? Nobody ever talks about the USB for anything except firmware upgrades, so I'm wondering if you used one with 110/220 output, or found one with 48 VDC output?
You're interested more about how the light looks on the outside than how it actually performs in terms of light quality, power output, whether or not the attached dish produces a hotspot or not...
Hi Alex, I'm searching for the v mount clamp to attach this light to a light stand. Could you please provide me with the link of the v mount clamp you use in the video? I cannot find it anywhere. Thank you very much
Nicely done, good explanation of the case - but showing how powerful a light is by just showing a bright light, doesn't actually mean anything. You could be on iso 16000 at f2.8 and a toy light would look as bright. You need to show it in context to direct sun or provide camera settings.
You can’t use v-mount battery if you buy a controller with cost around 500 euro! The name of this is: ,, Nanlite FC PowerController BT-BCS-48V3.5mm Battery Grip and Control Station V-Mount for FC-300B / FC-500B / FC-500C”

That’s so smart 🔥🔥 you’ve unlocked the matrix 😂💪
Where did you get a portable 1000Wh power-station for only a few hundred €/$/£?
@ cyberphoto in sweden had a 50% deal of for a zendure power station, it was roughly 380 euro, i bought the light on sale too for around 750 euro

@@bobn1955 Its not connected with USB, its connected with the usual power cable, the power station has 2 110/220V outputs

he should have done a side by side comparison with the regular 500
what is the mount u use on the ligh stand
I love your office lighting setup, buddy!
Is it as sharp as the Forza 500 II B? Because the FS 300B COB design is different, and has softer shadows
Hi, do you think fan noise can be an issue with Nanlite FC-500B for interviews?
Not at all, you can also stop the fan if needed but there's no point for that since it's super silent.
what light stand are you using in the video? thx
Is the power output less at 5600k compared to the forza 500?
I was very very very excited and was going to order it on Amazon until I heard that it can't use a V mount battery. No V mount, no party. 😥😥😥

Tripod stand?
does it work with the Nanlite fresnel lens?
Yes, it works with FL-20G
Having to control it from the head or use the app is a big minus.
Come on, you gave zero specs on this tool. What was the point of the review?
