KEY FEATURES FC-500C
OVERVIEW
The Nanlite FC-500C is a compact yet powerful RGBLAC LED spotlight designed for creators who want full-colour control without the bulk of high-output cinema lights. With up to 15,240 Lux at 1 metre (with reflector at 5600K), it delivers impressive output and advanced colour options in a lightweight, budget-friendly package. It’s ideal for content creators, small studios, interviews, and creative portrait setups.
Full-Colour RGBLAC Output
Using a six-colour LED engine (Red, Green, Blue, Lime, Amber, Cyan), the FC-500C offers wide-spectrum colour mixing and smoother skin tones. You get full CCT control (2700K–7500K), HSI mode, built-in gels, and advanced colour matching. Perfect for stylised looks or precise ambient matching.
Strong Performance, Small Footprint
Don’t be fooled by its size, with 520W of output power, the FC-500C packs a serious punch. It’s bright enough to key your subject, shape light with modifiers, or bring colour into your background. Smooth dimming from 0–100% makes it easy to dial in exactly what you need, even on fast-moving shoots.
Accurate Colour, Reliable Results
With a CRI of 96 and TLCI of 95, the FC-500C ensures consistent, true-to-life colour, whether you’re lighting skin, product, or set elements.
Lightweight & Easy to Use
With an integrated ballast and compact design, the FC-500C is easy to rig, reposition, and pack down. It uses a Bowens mount for wide modifier compatibility and supports on-board, app, and DMX control. Ideal for solo operators and small teams.
Creative Effects Built In
Includes a variety of built-in lighting effects such as TV, paparazzi, police lights, fire, and more. Giving you fast access to cinematic looks without extra gear or programming.
Modifiers
Every light head comes with your choice of modifier. Prices indicate additional or solo rental.
