The Godox LC500 HandHeld LED Video Light Stick & Barn Door is an innovative dual-colour temperature hand-held wand-styled LED light with a built-in 2.5hr rechargeable battery and detachable barn doors. With a Colour Rendering Index (CRI) of 95+, for super-accurate colour reproduction, and a Television Lighting Consistency Index (TLCI) rating of 95+ (which is the industry standard measurement of colour fidelity). This assures that you can achieve the best representation of colour possible, and makes it suitable for amateur or professional photographers, filmmakers, cinematography, broadcasting as well as TV production.
The Godox LC500 LED video light stick has dual-colour temperature LEDs, giving you the option of using either Daylight Balanced (6500K) or Tungsten Balanced (3300K) lighting, ideal for balancing the colour temperature of the ambient light or for effect.
The Godox LC500 LED light stick features a smart-passive cooling system, which efficiently dissipates heat without the need for cooling fans, which makes it Noise-Free. This is great for situations where you need to simultaneously record clean audio during your shooting session.
The Godox LC500 LED tube light can be either hand-held, allowing for very fast control and positioning, or it can be mounted to a standard light stand via the 1/4inch thread at the top, or at the bottom of the LED stick. It is also possible to connect multiple lights together with some sort of adapter, to form a long light bar. If connected with tilting joints, several LED light sticks can be combined to produce a Ringlight effect.
Due to their small profile, the Godox LC500 tube light can be put into places where traditional LED panels cannot, such as in tight corners, inside light fixtures etc. They are also small enough to be easily transported and can even be placed in your regular luggage.
The Godox LC500 LED video light stick features a built-in rechargeable battery, which gives you approximately 60 minutes of use, with recharge times of approximately 2.5 hours. If you are shooting close to a mains power outlet, you can use the battery charger like an AC adapter allowing for continuous operation.
The control panel is located on the LED light stick’s handle, which enables you to seamlessly control the power output of the light. The Godox LC500 also has a built-in 2.4GHz receiver allowing you to control it wirelessly using a remote control (Sold Separately).
The Godox LC500 LED light stick can be used in a wide variety of different situations such as portraits, fashion, weddings, and product photography as well as video and cinematography etc. You are limited only by your imagination.

I picked this up for a twilight Wedding last week....I wanted a little more flexibility in addition to the OCF. It a superb addition which actually gave me some really nice stuff! Haven't played with the barn doors yet, but super impressed
OK so first up. Like it's more famous counterpart that the design is based upon. You can't help but hold one of these without swooshing it around and making lightsaber noises. It's like some sort of law! With that out of the way, here are my thoughts after using this light at several weddings. I've owned several of these sorts of (cheaper) LED tube lights but not the more expensive original Ice Light. The Pixapro is significantly more expensive than the cheap LED tube lights but I decided to give this one a go since Pixapro is a brand of Essential Photo...read moreOK so first up. Like it's more famous counterpart that the design is based upon. You can't help but hold one of these without swooshing it around and making lightsaber noises. It's like some sort of law! With that out of the way, here are my thoughts after using this light at several weddings. I've owned several of these sorts of (cheaper) LED tube lights but not the more expensive original Ice Light. The Pixapro is significantly more expensive than the cheap LED tube lights but I decided to give this one a go since Pixapro is a brand of Essential Photo who are a very reputable UK company. I'd have bought it directly but for some random reason it was a little cheaper via Amazon at the time I bought it. So here we are! In terms of quality, it is top notch. I started out by using the case it came in when transporting it around. But as a wedding photographer, speed is often key. So I soon stopped using it and just started throwing it into the back of the car and despite the rigours of weddings, it still is in great condition. The light output is great. I love the fact the 3300k bulbs and 5500k bulbs are on each side so they can effectively double the power output. The cheaper ones tend to mix the bulbs which as meant a lower output and I found that in reality. I never needed to mix the temp. I thought I would do it....but never did. In short, having more power was more useful than the ability to mix the colour temperature. The rechargeable battery lasts a long time. I have used it at several weddings and only needed to charge it once. The controls are easy to use although I do have a tendency to accidentally press the mode button, switch from one light to the other and accidentally blinding myself temporarily until my night vision comes back! I like the fact there is no need for a seperate orange tube for CTO like the other I had. That was a real pain. I also love the fact it comes with barn doors to help me shape the light. The one thing I think they should improve upon for the next release though is how the barn doors work. Right now if I want to switch from one temp to the other. I need to pull the barn doors up. Rotate the doors around then clip it back in. Which is not easy if you're trying to do things quickly (remember I need speed). Often it doesn't quite go in and the doors sort of hang off. Until you fiddle enough to find the slot. In future, it'd be nice to have the barn doors on a hinge that goes both ways. Other than that, you get a remote which may be handy for some. I have no use for it. And of course the charger. If you are looking for the Godox light then this would be a good alternative for UK based since they give 2 year warranty instead of the standard 1 year for Godox stuff. In short, this is a damn good light and despite my initial reservations of the cost. I took the plunge and it is definitely worth it.
Fantastic and easy to use
Excellent value. There is no flicker/banding. I have tested this on shutter speeds of 1/20th sec - 1/320th sec. on Nikon the D5 & Nikon Z6. Also on silent shutter on the Z6.
Did a night time car shoot and the light was consistent. A little cool in colour temperature but easily fixed in post. Battery life was excellent.
