SmallRig 5512 RF 10C Portable Focusable LED Video Light "BumbleBee Edition" – Focusable 10W light with high color fidelity (CRI Ra≥96)

This compact, portable LED light forms part of SmallRig’s portable lighting ecosystem. It uses an aluminum-alloy construction in a sleek dark color scheme. As a result, it fits easily into a photography backpack and suits on-location shooting where space and weight matter.

Color, output and color rendering

The RF 10C uses four-color LED lamp beads: sunset orange, blue, white, and red. It delivers a maximum power of 10W and offers professional color rendering with CRI Ra≥96 and TLCI≥98. The product description also lists the illuminance as reaching 1,[email protected] / 5600K, ensuring the light covers varied shooting needs when set to 5600K.

Beam control and focusing

The light features a convex mirror with a front push-pull design that lets you adjust beam size. You can achieve precise focusing in a smaller range, with an adjustable focus angle of approximately 10°–60°. Furthermore, the zoom adjustment provides smooth control and excellent damping for seamless aperture-range changes.

Filters and creative projection

SmallRig equips the RF 10C with more than 20 light filters to support atmospheric projection effects. These filters expand creative possibilities, allowing you to add color accents, gels and mood lighting to backgrounds or subjects.

Design, handling and mounting options

The handle measures 4.3 cm in diameter to provide a comfortable, ergonomic grip during handheld use. The housing includes three 1/4"-20 threaded holes on the side and rear, enabling versatile mounting configurations and compatibility with a wide range of accessories that use a 1/4"-20 threaded adapter.

Battery and charging

The RF 10C contains a built-in 27.75Wh lithium battery and supports USB-C charging. On a full charge, it provides approximately 3 hours of continuous full-power lighting, offering uninterrupted support for many shooting sessions on location.

Anti-misuse power-on and usability notes
