The Lyra bi-color 1 x 1 soft panel is built into a heavy-duty molded plastic chassis providing a lightweight yet strong variable color fixture with enhanced features such as 100-10% flicker-free dimming , and an LCD display. It features an integrated 1/2 stop diffuser for extra softness, while its 510 LEDs produce a 110° beam spread with a high CRI rating for precise color rendering. The fixture produces a soft single-source shadow pattern owing to the integrated diffusion.

The Lyra comes with a multi-voltage AC power supply, while the four-leaf barndoors provide control over light spill, and feature removable light intensifiers to suit your taste. The yoke is angled forward 30° so you can open the barndoors all the way without hitting the yoke when the light is pointed straight ahead. The fixture also has a combo Baby receiver/Junior pin adapter on the yoke so you can mount it on a stand or hang it from a grid with optional clamps.

The big yellow knob on the back of the unit controls both the color temperature selection and the dimming of the unit. It features an indent for fingertip control and is positioned at the edge of the fixture, which is cut away so you can adjust the knob from the side of the unit when the rear is difficult to access. When you power on the light the yellow dimming knob defaults to controlling the dimming, pressing in the knob switches it to color temperature control (3200 to 5600K), pressing it again reverts back to dimming.

The light output stays consistent as you transition across the color temperature range, preventing the brightness spike that happens with many LED lights around 4300K.

The 1/2 white diffusion softens the light and provides a 110° beam spread and a single source shadow.

While some users may enjoy the small increase in light output that intensifiers bring, other users prefer to use barndoors without intensifiers. The removable intensifiers that come with this light attach securely to the barndoors. You do not have to attach all four intensifiers, which allows you choose how many barndoors to use for bumping up your output and how many barndoors to use to cut spill. The top and bottom barndoors integrate gel clips for attaching diffusion or gels.

The V2 Heavy Duty Light Stand from ikan is a two-riser, three-section, air-cushioned support that adjusts to a height of 8' and folds down to 36". The stand supports up to 8 lb and has a 5/8" top stud.

The stand bag is made from strong, black synthetic material intended for ikan ID500 and ID1000 light stands. The bag features a padded interior with individual compartments for each stand and zippered closures on both the top and side. A webbed strap encircles and reinforces the bag, and it is carried with two handles that can be joined with the padded touch-fastener.
