The LC500 Bi-Color LED Light Stick from Godox looks like a light saber or wand and its 'magic' is its versatility and sheer pleasure of use. It measures 22' long with a diameter of 2' and its 516 LEDs have a color temperature of 5600K or 3300K to meet ambient conditions, match other fixtures, or just for creative effects. Light intensity is variable too, from 10 to 100% to meet your subject's illumination requirements. This light stick emits up to 1200 lux at 1.6' and has a CRI/TLCI rating of 95 for color accuracy. While its output is omni-directional, it can be shaped and directed by the included barndoors.

The LC500's handle makes it a shoo-in for hand-holding and use as a hair light, side light, or main light for selective lighting and distinctive portraiture. It allows adjustments via local buttons and an easy-to-read LCD display or wirelessly using an optional remote control. Additionally, the female threads on the base of the handle allow stand-mounting and hands-free use. The light stick has a built-in battery that gets two hours of run time on a 2.5-hour charge with its included charger. A padded carry case is furnished for storage and transport.
