Rent the Yongnuo YN900C, a large 900-LED bi-color panel that gives soft, even, colour-accurate light for interviews, studio video, podcasts and event coverage.
Dial it warm or cool to match any room, on mains or battery power.
This is the Yongnuo YN900C, a full-size bi-color LED video panel from Yongnuo, a Shenzhen brand well known for affordable photo and video lighting.
The fixture is built from 900 surface-mount LEDs split between 3200K warm tungsten and 5500K cool daylight emitters, drawing 54W in total.
Two dials let one operator set overall brightness and cross-fade the colour temperature to any point between warm and daylight, so the light matches the existing room, a window or other fixtures without gels.
The panel is rated at a CRI of about 95, which keeps skin tones, fabric and product colours faithful and cuts down colour correction later. The beam spreads at around 55 degrees for wide, wrap-around coverage.
Because it is a continuous LED source it is flicker-free on camera and stays comfortable to work under during long sessions.
Power comes from mains through the supplied DC adapter, or from twin Sony NP-F style batteries clipped to the rear plates for shoots away from a socket.
A built-in 2.4GHz receiver pairs with the included remote and the free Yongnuo phone app, so one person can group and adjust several panels from across the room.
It carries a standard yoke bracket that fits ordinary light stands. At roughly 1.48 kg for the panel it is easy to rig, and it works equally well as a soft key light on a subject or a fill light to lift shadows.
