WESTCOTT GAINS EXCLUSIVE DISTRIBUTION OF NEW FLEXIBLE LED TECHNOLOGY
FOR PHOTOGRAPHY AND VIDEO LIGHTING
After making a major splash in Europe this year at both the IBC Video Conference and
Photokina, Westcott Lighting is excited to announce the exclusive North American and Australian
distribution of this new cuttingedge LED technology. The Flex™ is a pliable, dimmable,
waterresistant LED mat for photography and video production that produces an outstanding
quality of light with an impressively high 95+ CRI (Color Rendering Index) in both daylight and
tungsten models.
“Westcott is very excited to be teaming up with the inventor and engineer of this new patented
technology. It’s exciting to see something that is not only unique in the area of LED, but also that
represents this superb quality of light in such a compact package.”President, Kelly Mondora
According to Westcott, this is only the beginning for the new technology. They are teaming up
with Top Pro video and photography experts to develop an entire system based upon controlling
and modifying this new lighting technology.
The fullybendable Westcott Flex™ features a 10” x 10” surface lined with 166 LED diodes and
outlined with a moldable ¼” black frame and weighing a mere 5 ounces. Its compact design
allows it to be easily concealed onset or location and allows for effortless travel.
The Flex™ LED mat will be available in both tungsten and daylight versions. Although extremely
compact in size, the output from the new LED is anything but small. The tungsten version offers
an impressive 1,600 lux output at 1 meter with a 98 CRI, while the daylightbalanced model
offers a slightly brighter 1,900 lux output at 1 meter with a 95 CRI. Each unit will include a
dimmer to adjust the light output from 5% to 100% for precise control.
Westcott promises innovative accessories and kits to follow the Flex™ LED’s initial launch.
These products include a variety of LED panel sizes, frame mounting systems, diffusion options,
battery operation, and much more. For more information on this gamechanging LED from
