    Lovely review! just to note on 9:00, Plus and Minus Green would be nice but was never going to be in this light because the Forza range of lights such as the 300B MK II and 500B MK II is Nanites high-end range of lights that will have that feature, even in 2024 that's still quite a high-end feature for such a large unit and for how much this light costs that would undercut their whole Forza line-up.
    The FC range is the Amaran range but for Nanlites offerings, I agree however that DMX is pointless for content creators (nice to just have it) but would happily have had the light even cheaper if they took it out, I only care about the phone app control, and would happily pay £250 for a future wireless extender to make the app even more reliable.
    In a funny way, the FC range still completely under-cut the original Forza line-up to the point I sold my Forza 500 Mk I for this cheaper unit for many reasons... The FC-60, 120, 300, and 500 are practically all cheaper and almost better units than the original Forza Mk I counter-parts.

      Actually... They just announced a new power bank for the FC line that has Plus/Minus controls and a v-mount option. So looks like we ARE in fact, getting that kind of control on the new FC line. It will cost you an extra $300, but there it is. I have a feeling Nanlite has been getting a lot of flack for not including it in the first place.
      I agree. That happens with newer technology all the time. But the build quality and look, unlike the FS line, isn't as premium or professional looking.
      I have several FS units and I still use them for all my pro gigs. They look more like Nanlite's higher end lights. The FC line looks more in line with Anaran's plastic content creator lights.
      Cheers!

      @@Ranger7Studios You are actually correct, The new FC-500C has plus and minus control because it is the first RGBW fixture in the FC range, it's actually really really weird why they have done this because the FC-500C is only $1,000 and £1,300 with the control unit when the pro level Forza 500B Mk II is like $1,500... They just undercut their pro-level kit big time, the FC-500C is 5,300fc and the Forza 500B is only 6,254fc at 1m 5600k w/reflector.
      Definitely sucks to be an owner of Nanlites Forza gear... that stuff is losing value big time.
      Exactly that, The FC is literally Amaran's plastic content creator lights, everything from the foam boxes they come in and the new Power control box that was purchased separately is all the same, to be honest, the way the FC range is going you might as well forget the Forza range entirely haha!

      I still think the forza 720b is unmatched by any fc line haha​@@Samskihero

      @@Cinegavo Of course it is, but that's a Forza light so higher end and a £1.8k light (1.2k from china) so obvious better hahah, I bought my Forza 500 back when that was a £1.2k light and while it was great it was an awful investment and plummeted in value.

    Hey, nice review. How does it compare with a Aputure 600x Pro or a Zhiyun Molus B500?

    • @Ranger7Studios
      @Ranger7Studios  Месяц назад

      The zhiyun b500 is next Monday. (Get subscribed) Probably won’t do the 600 cause I don’t have it. ;)
