Transcontinenta UK Ltd., as the distributor of Zhiyun in the United Kingdom and Ireland, introduces the new Zhiyun FIVERAY M40 LED pocket fill light and the Zhiyun FIVERAY F100 LED stick light. With their launch, ZHIYUN pushes the boundaries of lighting technology and performance to put studio-quality, ultraportable lighting products in the hands of content creators. Used with ZHIYUN handheld gimbals, content creators can create silky-smooth footage with stable and soft lighting, even in dark outdoor settings, thanks to its stay-cool technology.
Both photography and filmmaking tools adopt ZHIYUN’s patented and disruptive DynaVort Cooling System™. Inspired by a panel of expert physicists, its intelligent stay-cool technology applies fluid dynamics and consists of advanced algorithms, controlling fans and a gyroscopic modelling heat sink. By raising the cooling efficiency through intelligent control, its two-way cooling system prevents overheating.
Yilun Liao, CEO, ZHIYUN, said: “we are passionate about using breakthrough innovations, whether it’s with our iconic gimbals or our new Zhiyun FIVERAY lighting devices to simplify and reshape content creation. With several industry firsts under our belts, including the M40’s DynaVort Cooling System™, our products offer full creative control and convenience for anyone wanting to experience and express their inner filmmaker.”
The palm-sized ZHIYUN M40 360° LED fill light epitomizes simplicity and utility. Based on the attitude-control algorithm applied on gimbals, DynaVort technology enables better heat dispersion, allows for smaller fans, and therefore, a compact device without compromising on its 40W power; whereas products of a comparable size currently only offer 5-13W. Weighing only 320g, it fits neatly in pockets, looks stylish and is the ultraportable illumination companion for videographers, whether amateur or professional.
The ZHIYUN FIVERAY F100 is the second professional lighting stick in the Zhiyun FIVERAY product range, bringing power, portability and accurate colour rendition in one versatile tool. Weighing just 950g, the F100 is designed for one-handed control and comfort, offering a pro lighting solution without the need for complicated set-up or setting adjustment. Embedded with five times more LED chips, the F100 gives you ultra-bright output compared to similar-sized lights, reaching 20,708 lux at its 100W maximum power. The ZHIYUN FIVERAYF100 offers six creative lighting effects that help build up the atmosphere easily when inspiration strikes.
For maximum versatility, the F100 can be mounted on ZHIYUN’s holder, H stand, tripod and light stand, fitting in various filming settings for lighting solutions and additional accessories, including a diffuser and grid, to offer multiple lighting options.
The new Zhiyun FIVERAY M40 and FIVERAY F100 LED lights are available at Zhiyun dealers in the United Kingdom and Ireland. The Zhiyun FIVERAY M40 has a recommended retail price of £103.99 / €120.99. The Zhiyun FIVERAY F100 standard set with 2-leaf barn doors, diffuser, grid and carrying case, has a recommended retail price of £261.99 / €304.99. The Zhiyun FIVERAY F100 Combo set, which includes an additional 220/240W Power adapter, has a recommended retail price of £319.99 / €364.99.
