![]() The LEDs on the Godox LD510RS (next to the barn doors) We will test how this modifier affects the light output later in the review. Our diffuser just pops into place and softens the beam considerably. The front of the panel features an integrated modifier holder with spring tabs that keep the modifier in place. We decided to make our own modifier out of translucent plexiglass. ![]() Godox sells a softbox to soften this effect and to spread the light beam, but this softbox makes the whole setup a lot bigger. The LED panel is an array of individual LEDs, it’s not actually a uniform light source, so this panel produces peculiar shadows, especially when you restrict the light with barn doors. There is, of course, an RGB mode, 2 gels modes, and an effects mode with 14 customizable RGB effects. Godox also included green/magenta levels to match different lights. In CCT mode, the color temperature ranges from 2500K to 8500K. All of our V-mount batteries are 12v, so we weren’t able to test this feature. The only caveat is that it only functions with a 26v V-mount battery. This panel comes with a V-mount plate on the back, so, technically, it is a portable panel. Not the most elegant solution, but it works for now. In our configuration, the bracket is a good place to store it, so we just fixed it in place with some zip ties. Somehow Godox didn’t foresee the need to attach it. This piece is pretty big, and you wouldn’t want it to just hang from the panel. To power the LD150Rs, Godox provides a power brick. These fans do a good job at dissipating the heat, and the fixture doesn’t warm up very much even after prolonged use. These are very quiet as is, but there is also a silent mode in the panel’s menu that shuts the fans off while limiting the light output to 50%. ![]() The on/off switch is also on the bottom of the panel. The ports on the bottom of the panel include ethernet and XLR DMX ports and a 3-pin power connector. On the back of the panel, there is a small color screen for menu settings, 4 clickable control knobs, 4 customizable color-coded preset buttons, mode and menu navigation buttons, and a handy settings lock button. The tension is controlled only by one knob on the left side. Including the bracket, the fixture measures 54cm x 51cm and weighs 5.1kg. The LD150Rs come in a plastic and metal fixture with plastic handles on the sides and a sturdy metal bracket. On the top of the panel’s fixture, there is an integrated metal eyelet to connect the safety cord with the included carabiner. Godox ships the light panel in a semi-hard carrying case with a set of barn doors, safety cord, power brick, and cable. ![]() The 3 different sizes of LED panels from the Godox LED series These panels boast powerful output, precise color control, and portability. The other units included in this series are the smaller and less powerful LD75 and the large 150R. Today we are taking a look at the LD150RS which is a big jump for the company, straight into the truly professional arena, competing with much more expensive options from a variety of manufacturers. In the past year or so we looked at many lights by Godox including the Godox SZ150R, T元0 LED Tubes, Godox S60 with projector attachment, and Godox ML60. The LD150R is ready for worldwide use thanks to its multi-voltage power adapter, but it will also run on optional batteries via its V-mount plate.Today we will be taking a look at the Godox LD150RS Pro LED panel, which is part of a family of similar panels announced by the company last year and we have been using in our studio (as well as on a number of commercial productions outside our studio) in the past few months. Furthermore, the light has 14 special effects that lend realism to your shoot. With dimming from 100% down to 0%, you can quickly adapt the light to any scene without adding ND filters or diffusion, since yet another perk is the light's Lee Gel library. One of the advanced functions is RGB mode, which employs its LEDs to access literally over 16 million colour combinations for optimal choice. You can adjust the magenta/green balance for greater precision, as well as adjust light intensity from 0 to 100% for further versatility. The panel's high CRI/TLCI ratings of 96/97 are indicators of advanced accuracy in the rendering of colour. The panel has an expansive CCT range of 2500 to 8500K for seamless integration to any ambient light situation, to match other fixtures, or just for creative expression. This LD150R LED Panel is a 29.4 x 17 x 4.2" fixture capable of switching between a traditional multi-LED panel for hard light and a tunable RGB panel for colourful, creative effects at the push of a button.
