The Zhiyun Molus X100 is an ultra-compact COB LED light designed for video, streaming and photography. It delivers professional power in a small package, making it suitable for on-the-go creators, small creative teams, freelancers and aspiring videographers.
Weighing just 385g, the Molus X100 offers a 100W professional power output while remaining lightweight and easy to carry. As a result, you can take the light to location shoots and mobile setups without adding much bulk.
The X100 provides adjustable colour temperature from 2700K to 6500K. It achieves high colour fidelity with a CRI of ≥95 and a TLCI of ≥97. At 5500K, using the included reflector at 1 meter, the light output measures 17032 Lux.
You can power the Molus X100 in three different ways to minimise downtime and adapt to various shooting conditions. Choose between:
You can adjust colour temperature and brightness quickly via onboard controls or through Bluetooth. Additionally, Music Mode triggers lighting effects by sound, which you can use for simulated gunshot flashes, rhythmic changes that follow music, or other sound-reactive effects.
The Molus series works with the ZY Vega app. Through the app, you can control the X100 and the G60. The app enables full adjustment of individual lights and the ability to group multiple lights for synchronized control.
The X100 uses Zhiyun's DynaVort Cooling System. This system combines gyroscope-modelled heat sinks with a FOC fan. Based on fluid dynamics and an attitude-control algorithm, it improves cooling efficiency by intelligently controlling airflow emissions. As a result, the light maintains smooth illumination output without flickering during use.
Every Molus LED light uses the ZY mount, which makes it easy to attach Zhiyun light modifiers. If you prefer to use existing modifiers, a Bowens adapter is also available so you can keep using those accessories.

Question: How can I power the Zhiyun Molus X100 when I’m on location?
Answer: The X100 supports three power methods: a grip battery for mobile shoots, a DC adapter for continuous mains power, and 100W PD fast charging to restore power quickly between takes.
Question: Can I control multiple Molus lights at once?
Answer: Yes. Use the ZY Vega app to control both the X100 and the G60. The app lets you adjust individual lights and group multiple lights together for synchronized control.
Question: Will the X100 stay cool during long shoots?
Answer: The Molus X100 uses the DynaVort Cooling System, which combines gyroscope-modelled heat sinks and a FOC fan. This system improves airflow control and cooling efficiency to maintain smooth, flicker-free illumination.
Question: What mounting and modifier options are available?
Answer: The X100 uses Zhiyun’s ZY mount for Zhiyun light modifiers. If you already own modifiers with a Bowens mount, a Bowens adapter is available so you can use them with the X100.
Question: What creative lighting effects does the X100 offer?
Answer: The X100 includes a Music Mode that triggers lighting effects in response to sound. You can use this for rhythmic changes tied to music or for sound-triggered effects such as simulated gunshots.
