How it works

Flexible Arm System
The reinforced metal-spring arm allows accurate positioning of the light head, making it easier to place light exactly where needed for macro work. Designed for repeated adjustments, it supports consistent setups across shoots.

LED Light Head
Equipped with five 3W LEDs, the light provides multicolour output including red, green, blue, cold white, and warm white. Brightness can be adjusted in steps, giving control without overcomplicating operation.

Beam Control and Modifiers
The adjustable beam angle (4° to 32°) allows for tight, focused lighting or slightly broader coverage. Included modifiers help refine output:

• Diffuser softens light for more even coverage
• Spotlight lens concentrates light for precision
• Four-leaf barndoors control spill and direction

Creative Filters
Ten patterned slide filters allow you to introduce textures and visual effects, adding variety to macro or product shots without additional accessories.

Mounting Options
The RM 03 includes a clamp, ground stake, and cold shoe mount, along with a built-in 1/4"-20 thread. This flexibility makes it easy to position the light on desks, rigs, or outdoor setups.

Battery and Build
The integrated 2000mAh battery provides up to 140 minutes of runtime at full brightness. USB-C charging keeps power management simple, while the IP54-rated body offers protection against dust and splashes.

Why choose this product
