MPR Says: If you are looking for an LED light that’s very versatile, lightweight and offers a lot of spread, the S2 Litemat 4 is just what you’re gonna need.
The Litemat 4 is bicolor dimmable and is very lightweight and low-profile. It’s only an inch thick and it’s about 5.7 pounds. You may not even want to use a lighting stand for this if you’re in a space with tight quarters you could probably just tape this to the wall like it was a painting.
Remember, it’s always a great idea to rent a Litemat in Miami before you buy. Give it a test ride.
Powering up the Litemat 4 we have the power supply which fits into a convenient net mesh bag. There’s also a pocket on it for the dimmer control. This controls the intensity of the light and the Kelvin.
Another nice feature after you’ve made your settings you’re able to press down the dials so that they don’t accidentally get bumped. The Litemat s2 has a kelvin range between 2600 Kelvin to 6000 Kelvin.
Setup is very simple. There’s a cable coming off of the back of the Litemat that you plug into the receiver and then connect it into the back of the dimmer.
There are some more light control options. This light comes with an excellent chimera. The outer brim of the Litemat is made of velcro which makes attaching and detaching the chimera very easy.
The Litemat 4 kit comes with a choice of three different diffusions: Full, half and quarter. In a very short amount of time you’re able to build a softbox for your Litemat.
Rental hire of the Litemat 4 in Miami can help you make that all important purchase the right one!
Being that this light is so lightweight it’s very useful for an overhead light, perhaps a rim light along with another great lighting source we have like the Gemini 1×1.
So on your next shoot when you have a tight location and you’re thinking to yourself oh we don’t have a lot of space for stands and whatnot, consider the Litemat as a solution. Aslo, check out our other litemats.
