NANLITE FORZA 500

I was surprised how much light this 500W unit throws for its size—the included reflector bowl gave me a clean, even beam right out of the box. The compact head and light weight made it easy to rig on a small stand for a quick studio session.

For a 500W unit, the 2.6kg head weight is what sold me—I can rig it on a lightweight stand without counterbalancing. Even at 5600K, it holds its color temperature after an hour of continuous use, which my last fixture never did. Glad I went with this for the rental package.

Picked this up for a night exterior and the 5600K output was dead clean, no green tint to fix in post. At 2.6 kg it's light enough to hang on a boom arm without extra rigging.
