The new Stella Pro 9000c LED is amazingly bright. It can be used as a camera top light for ENG, or with a range of light modifiers. It also accepts Profoto and Chimera accessories via an adapter. Light & Motion based their earlier lights on LEDs made for underwater videography, but this new model is aimed more squarely at the land loving shooter.
It is water resistant, but unlike previous Stella Pros it has a more conventional rotating dimmer. The light promises tough build quality coupled with high colour accuracy. There is a fan that comes on as the light output is increased. Power is via a tap and there is no on-board battery in this model.
Also on show was a drone light based on the smaller, lower output Stella Pro 5000 model. The small size and high output of the light make it a viable option if you want to fly a light.
The price of the new 9000c is unlikely to be cheap. The current Stella Pro 5000 retails for around $2300 US at leading retailers.
