The black Bee 50-C PAR Spot Omni-Color LED Light from Hive is a versatile 1.5 lb LED light source that measures just 5" in length and 4" in diameter making it a great choice for tight spaces with minimal support requirements. The light has a 22-degree PAR spot reflector that makes it an ideal choice for selective lighting or for long throw work. The beam can be further modified by the included 4-way barndoors.
Control is the key word in the construction of the 50-C. Hive uses what they call Perfect S.H.O.T controls which is an umbrella term for complete control and adjustment of every aspect of light output. Part of the success of the system is due to the use of 5 LED chip blending. Instead of the traditional 3 colors, Hive uses Red, Amber, Lime, Cyan, and Sapphire for nearly infinite color combinations with a high CRI/TLCI rating of 98 and 97. Color can be adjusted from a very warm amber 1650K to an icy blue 8000K. But control doesn't stop there. There's 360-degree hue adjustment around the color wheel as well as 0-100% saturation control. The 50-C can also be dimmed from 0-100%. While of course you can make all of these adjustments manually, you can also make them remotely via your smartphone or onboard wired or wireless DMX. Thanks to its 100-240 VAC power supply, the 50-C is ready for worldwide use but it will also run on optional batteries when mains power is unavailable
- Perfect S.H.O.T. Controls
