TtWestcott’s Skylux LED light brings powerful light into a studio without generating heat, and right now it’s nearly half price right now on B&H.
B&H is selling the kit at $450, a 44 percent decrease from their $799 price. This means that you can make use of the Bowens S-Mount and pick up a modifier with your savings. If you buy Westcott’s Rapid Box Octa XL you’ll still have $100 left over. Bear in mind that this package already comes with an umbrella.
The light has a CRI of 94 at 5,600K daylight. This is in contrast to some of Aperture’s latest lights that annoyingly have a 6,000K white balance and cost $650. Unfortunately the latest batch of LED lights have gotten some upgrades that the Skylux won’t have. Westcott’s version is only dimmable to 30 percent, and you can’t power them with a battery like some newer lights.
Nonetheless this could be great for photographers and videographers that are thinking about upgrading. These lights won’t make any noticeable noise, nor will they get too hot. As such they’re perfect constant lights for a small studio, especially if you’ve already got expensive Bowens mount modifiers.
