CLAR Slim 10″ Round Bi-Color LED Studio Light – Update January 27 2020

Update January 27 2020

I recently used the CLAR as a hair/rim light in my review of the Flashpoint FV150

November 21 2019    

It’s amazing how technology has impacted the design and pricing of LED lighting. The CLAR Slim is no exception. I work primarily with strobes, but have had the chance to use this constant light with my partner who is a filmmaker. Although I cannot show the final product I can give some initial impressions prior to releasing the video. First off the light is very light in terms of weight. And the output is both even and easily adjustable.

Although I do not own a color temperature meter I will say that the ability to adjust the Kelvin temp of the light is a godsend. Rather than using gels the ability to adjust from daylight to tungsten is extremely convenient. I happen to own several NP F-type batteries and at 50% power levels they last approximately 50 minutes. At 100% they only last approximately 15 minutes. Keep in mind the batteries I tested are only 2200mah units.

The controls on the rear of the unit function well and are very easily adjusted. I have not yet tested the remote features of the CLAR which will be in a subsequent addition to this post. For 149.00 and the ability to use it with battery power it’s a bargain in my book. Stay tuned….

Used as a fill and rim light for this situation.
