Neewer - GC21B

The NEEWER Basics GC21B stands out from traditional LED tubes thanks to its inflatable construction, designed to simplify transport and reduce space requirements. Unlike rigid aluminium or plastic tubes, this model can be folded when not in use to take up much less space in a shooting bag or mobile equipment.

When inflated, the GC21B reaches around 90cm in length and produces a more diffused light that is particularly suited to portraits, vlogs, lifestyle videos or social networking content. This tubular format also makes it easy to create side lighting, discreet backlighting or a softer lighting atmosphere in a set.

The tube features 320 LEDs with a power of 21W and a colour temperature that can be adjusted from 2700K to 6500K. This range facilitates both warm and cool atmospheres, depending on the shooting context. The progressive brightness adjustment from 0 to 100% allows you to adjust the light intensity more precisely according to the distance or scene being filmed.

Thanks to its high CRI of 95, the GC21B maintains good colour fidelity for the faces, objects and backgrounds filmed. This feature is particularly useful for content creators who want to quickly improve their lighting without having to resort to heavier installations.

The tube also has 12 integrated lighting effects that can be used to generate different animations directly from the device. These effects can be used to quickly add a more dynamic atmosphere to a video or set without complex programming.

The integrated 2500mAh battery provides up to 50 minutes of autonomy at full power and is recharged via USB-C. This makes it easy to shoot on the move or for quick outdoor shots.
