The Neewer LED Bi-Color Studio Round Lighting is one of the most popular products of the company. It boasts a unique and futuristic design that sets it apart from the competition. In this review, we will discuss its features, benefits, and drawbacks.

Design and Build Quality

The Neewer LED Bi-Color Studio Round Lighting comes in an ultra-slim and lightweight design. It is only 18”/45.5cm in diameter and 1.2”/3cm thick. The entire body is made of durable aluminum that acts as a heat sink. Vents around the body improve heat dissipation and protect the light against overheating.

The lighting has an edge-lit LED panel that produces bright and even lighting. It is perfect for portraits, product photography, children photography, wedding photography, and vlogs. The round light employs LED technology that conserves energy and does not produce heat. It is 70W and can last for a long time without any flicker.

Brightness and Color Temperature

This round light comes equipped with 180 warm white LEDs and 180 cool white LEDs. It provides bi-color lighting variable from 3200K to 5600K. High CRI 95+ ensures accurate color rendition with faithful color reproduction. It produces soft and flattering light that enhances skin tones and provides shadows with a gentle falloff.

The Neewer LED Bi-Color Studio Round Lighting can be adjusted using control buttons that allow for the best lighting possible. The LCD screen that shows the readings can help you adjust with ease. The brightness can be dimmed from 1% to 100% with no color shift.

Wireless Remote Control

This round light comes with a 2.4GHz wireless remote that allows you to adjust color temperature and brightness within a 164’ (50m) unblock range. You can easily sync the round light with the remote by setting them to the same channel. The LCD panel displays readings about the light settings that help you adjust with accuracy. This feature is especially useful when using the light in hard-to-reach places.

Dual Power Supplies

The Neewer LED Bi-Color Studio Round Lighting can be powered by a wall socket using the included AC adapter. It also has a V-mount plate on the back that enables you to use a V-mount battery or two NP-F batteries (an F2-BP converter is needed). This feature makes it perfect for outdoor photography where there is no access to a power source. However, the V-mount battery, NP-F batteries, and F2-BP converter are not included in the package.

Package Contents

The package includes one 18” 70W LED Round Light, one 2.4G Wireless Remote Control, one Power Adapter, one Power Cable, and one Carrying Bag. The carrying bag is made of high-quality nylon and protects the light from dirt and scratches during transportation.

The wireless remote control and dual power supplies make it perfect for outdoor shooting.
