Attach the included softbox, one of two strengths of diffusion, and the fabric grid using the integrated hook-and-loop fabric to further finesse your lighting design and add a beautifully controlled soft light to your scene. As I mentioned earlier, setting up flexible LED panels is a little more work than traditional lights. They come in a few pieces, and to be used as a conventional light, you use the included frame with light stand receiver. I like the design of the frame as it’s sturdy and doesn’t use hook and loop fabric to attach to the frame. To get an idea of the output when in HSI color mode, I took readings in the primary six colors from 1-meter / 3.3′. HSI Color

I like the included straight baby pin. It fits in a sturdy grip head so much better than the included adapter. I do understand the amaran line is for the budget-minded user. The control box is a multi-voltage AC power supply that also features a V-Mount battery plate for use with compatible 14.4V, 26V, or 28.8V batteries. Full output can be achieved when using the AC power supply, using batteries allows the F22x to be used at either half-power or full-power, depending on battery strength. When it comes to soft light, you want to get the diffusion farther away from the light. 4″ is not a lot. It’s nice to have a softbox included, and I appreciate the simplicity. However, I would punch it through a 4×4 or 6×6 frame to get a more pleasing look. Again. These are tools, and you have an included option that will work well in many situations.The amaran F22x is a 2’x2’ flexible LED mat designed for a variety of users – from filmmakers to videographers, content creators, and even photographers. As an ultra-light, ultra-thin fabric light, the F22x is compatible with a wide variety of use cases and excels in on-the-go travel and tight spaces. And as a large, soft light that can fold compactly, it is the perfect close-up key light.

I’m looking forward to seeing the lantern they will be releasing for the flexible light, as that would increase its usability. Always a good thing. Pricing and Availability So now that we have seen the color rendering scores and the Kelvin color temperature accuracy, let’s have a look at the output. To add a beautifully controlled soft light to your scene, attach the included softbox, one of two strengths of diffusion cloths, or the included light control grid using the integrated hook-and-loop fabric to further finesse your lighting design. The F22x can also be combined with the Amaran F22 Lantern with light control skirt to extend the fixture as a volumetric lantern or pancake light.` Ultimate flexibility. Install the included foldable softbox, one of two strengths of diffusion, or the fabric light control grid to instantly turn this flexible mat into an ultra-thin soft light that will make any subject shine.The light has pretty good extended CRI scores, like most LED lights these days. The Kelvin color temperature accuracy is reasonably good and the light doesn’t have any big noticeable shifts towards magenta or green. F22c & F22x Output in CCT Mode Full color control. The F22c features RGBWW LEDs for complete color control, as well as tunable CCT from 2,500K to 7,500K, providing endless possibilities for creative lighting decisions through 360° HSI control, 46 color gel presets, or even up to 15 unique lighting effects.
