Nanlite Forza 500B II with 59-Inch Parabolic 150 Softbox and Bowens Mount
Nanlite Forza 500B II Bi-Color LED Monolight with OLED Screen 12 Special Effects Active Cooling
The Nanlite Forza 500B II Bi-Color LED Monolight delivers reliable performance and flexible lighting control for professional video and photo production. Designed for accuracy and convenience, it provides adjustable color temperature, advanced connectivity, and multiple power options suitable for studio and location work.
Adjustable Color Temperature and Green-Magenta Shift
The Forza 500B II offers a wide color temperature range from 2700K to 6500K with a green-magenta adjustment of ±80. This feature allows easy color matching with ambient light or other fixtures, ensuring consistent and natural tones in every setup.
High Output with Precision Dimming
With full output comparable to the original Forza 500, this monolight delivers bright illumination while maintaining precise control. It’s dimmable from 0–100 percent in 0.1 percent increments, allowing users to fine-tune brightness to match different scenes or moods.
Versatile Control Options
Operate the light directly through its onboard OLED display, or control it remotely via Bluetooth using the NANLINK app. It also supports 2.4 GHz wireless control, DMX, and RDM, making it easy to integrate into any professional lighting setup.
Flexible Power and Cooling System
The Forza 500B II can run on AC power or optional 26V/14.8V V-mount batteries for field use. Its fanless control unit and four selectable fan modes (Smart, Full Speed, Low Speed, and Off) ensure quiet operation during audio-sensitive shoots.
360-Degree Rotating Yoke and Bowens Mount
The redesigned curved yoke allows full 360-degree rotation for greater tilt range when using larger modifiers. Its Bowens mount supports a wide variety of softboxes, reflectors, and accessories for precise light shaping.
Built-in Effects and Firmware Updates
The unit includes 12 customizable lighting effects, all adjustable through the NANLINK app. A USB port enables firmware updates and powers optional wireless DMX receivers, ensuring the light stays up-to-date and adaptable.
Nanlite Parabolic 150 Quick-Open Softbox with Bowens Mount (59 Inch)
Nanlite 59-inch Para 150 Softbox with Bowens Mount shapes light with soft, focused output. Includes 1- and 2-stop diffusers, Bowens Type-S speed ring, and carrying bag for easy transport. Control and Shape Light The Para 150's reflective silver interior maximizes light output while the removable front diffuser softens it and reduces contrast. The parabolic shape creates even lighting with a wraparound quality and natural-looking catchlights. Its depth produces a focused light with increased directional control, minimal spill light, and significant falloff.
Multiple Diffusion Options
Nanlite provides both 1- and 2-stop front diffusers to enable even more adjustment of light quality. The Para 150 turns into a large reflector that will output high-contrast light when neither of the diffusers is used.
Bowens-Style Speed Ring
Created to be compatible with Nanlite's Forza Series LEDs, the Para 150 includes a Bowen speed ring. This near-universal light modifier mount expands compatibility with an extensive range of LED, strobe, and constant light sources.
Fast Setup and Breakdown
Nanlite Forza LEDs are ready at a moment's notice, so their softboxes should be too. This softbox utilizes a quick-open speed ring with spring-loaded rod locks. Quickly snap the rods into place to set up the softbox, and then release them at the touch of a button to break down.
Accepts Optional Fabric Grids
To achieve more control of light spill and directionality, an optional fabric grid can be mounted via touch-fasteners. The fabric grid narrows the beam angle to 60 degrees and concentrates the light's beam forward. The fabric grid is sold separately.
