Photogenic Monolight Powerlight PL500DRC
Photogenic Monolight Powerlight PL500DRC
Solair monolights employ "constant color" technology that prevents the flash color temperature from visibly shifting no matter what power setting is used. There's no warm cast at lower power levels! That's important in a multi-light setup, where levels can vary greatly.

The PL500DRC provides an extended range of flash output from 500Ws to 4Ws (an 8 f-stop range). The digital display lets you precisely adjust the flash power setting in 1/10 or 1/2 f-stop increments. Microprocessor circuitry ensures the power level you select is delivered accurately, flash after flash, to within 1/20 of an f-stop. The light has a bright 250W modeling lamp that can be fully controlled to any output level you need.

Exposure bracketing can be automatically performed with the Solair light, instead of with the camera. An under- and over-exposure power setting of as little as 1/10 f-stop up to as much as 1-1/2 f-stops can be programmed to fire in addition to the correct exposure setting. Keep your depth-of-field unchanged!

Professionals trust Photogenic Solair monolights for constant color, consistent output,and reliable results.

CA Proposition 65

Attention to all California residents, Proposition 65 or officially known as, the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, is a law that requires warnings be provided to California consumers when they might be exposed to chemicals identified by California as causing cancer or reproductive toxicity. The warnings are intended to help California consumers make informed decisions about their exposures to these chemicals from the products they use. The California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) administers the Proposition 65 program and publishes the listed chemicals, which includes more than 850 chemicals. August 2016, OEHHA adopted new regulations, to go into effect on August 30, 2018, which changes the information that is required in or on Proposition 65 warnings.

We want you to know and be aware of our product safety and Midwest Photo is taking all of the necessary steps to comply with the applicable safety and health requirements made by this Proposition 65.

WARNING: This product may contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.

This disclaimer can be found on the product pages on our website under the Additional Information tab which appears below the product description. It is listed on all product pages to ensure that our customer is aware of the warnings put out by our suppliers so you can know the precautions before purchasing.
