The Light and Motion Stella CL 1000/2500 Light is perfect for content creators whose images include both underwater and topside footage making it a very versatile light.
The CL 1000/2500 is the first professional-grade hybrid light in an ultra-compact design, with the ability to illuminate underwater at a full 2500 lumens but transition seamlessly to topside use at 1000 lumens. Obviously the heat generated by the 2500 output mode can't be dissipated effectively by the small unit without the water to cool it down, hence the lower 1000 lumen output when in air, but there is a boost mode that allows the light to temporarily run at 2500 for up to 30 seconds to get the perfect shot.
The CL 1000/2500 uses an integrated rechargeable Li-ion battery that will run the light for 45 to 415 minutes depending on the output level. It is important to note that because the battery is fully integrated into the device it is permissible in both checked and carry-on luggage.
If you are going to be doing a long shoot that would exceed the expected battery life you can simple just plug the light into an AC or DC power source and go for as long as you like!
The light head uses a high output COB (Chip On Board) LED that eliminates the multi-shadow effect that can be a problem with panel-style light sources while also keeping the light's footprint small. The lens gives it a 120° native beam angle which is the equivalent of 90° underwater. The beam can also be easily focused to 25° with the included snap-on Fresnel Modifier.
As with other Light and Motion underwater lights, the Stella CL 1000/2500 uses an intuitive sliding magnetic switch to operate the light and switch between the different modes. The switch also acts as a lock by rotating the slide 90° to prevent the light being accidentally turned on or off.
The Stella CL 1000/2500UW is ideal to mount on both topside cameras and underwater camera rigs.
