The Zhiyun LED Fiveray M20C is a 20W RGB pocket light designed for filmmakers and creators who need portable, professional lighting. It offers reduced flicker, professional dimming, and an expanded range of color temperature choices. With a built-in battery, the unit runs 40 minutes at full 20W power and supports simultaneous charging and lighting.
This model delivers high color fidelity with CRI≥94 and TLCI≥96. In addition, the M20C achieves a peak illuminance of 1950 LUX when measured at 0.5 m and 4300K, giving reliable output for close-range fill and accent lighting.
Zhiyun equips the Fiveray M20 Series with the DynaVort Cooling System Mark II. This cooling approach slims down heat sink thickness, optimizes airflow, and reduces drag. As a result, the light maintains performance while keeping a compact form factor.
The M20C includes a dual-side magnetic extension bracket and a cold shoe for fast accessory mounting. You can attach individual diffusers, honeycomb grids, or four-leaf barn doors. Moreover, you can combine accessories to achieve diffused, focused, or shaped lighting.
Using the dedicated magnetic extension accessories, the light magnetizes to tables, walls, and even vehicles. Combine the unit with camera adapters and extension poles to adapt it for a wide range of shooting scenarios.
The M20C supports endless daisy-chaining for building larger lighting setups. It also offers 10 creative lighting effects and a music mode. You can synchronize speed and temperature adjustments across units using the tactile dual dials on the light.
Zhiyun integrates Bluetooth mesh networking into the Fiveray M20 Series, a feature once exclusive to pro lighting. Through the dedicated app, you can stack multiple units, synchronize settings remotely, and control groups of lights as a creative ecosystem.
The built-in battery delivers solid runtimes at different power levels and supports PD protocol power banks and charging adapters. The M20C allows simultaneous charging and lighting, so you can keep working while you recharge.
