Yongnuo YN1200 3200-5500K Pro LED Video Light

Yongnuo YN1200 3200-5500K is the most powerful bi-color LED light from Yongnuo and one of the best on the market. This YN1200 3200-5500K model features 600 LEDs with a color temp of 5,500K (daylight) plus 600 LEDs with 3200K color temperature. Yongnuo also produces YN1200 5500K only model which features 1200 LEDs with 5500K color temperature. 5500K only model is clearly brighter, but you don’t have the ability to set color temperature in 3200-5500K range. Bi color model is more useful for most users but it sacrifice some brightness because of that. However, it is still more than powerful for almost any job you can think of.

Yongnuo YN1200 LED panel is brilliantly made, and for its price and features, unbeatable. Yongnuo YN1200 LED light is too cheap for what it offers. You could easily buy seven of these for the price of one Litepanels Astra for example

YN1200 is a compact, lightweight and affordable LED light designed to be mounted on light stands. It is not meant to be used as a camera toplight like YN300 models. It’s powered by two or four Sony NP-F battery, the type that you get with a Z1 or Z5 camcorder. It features four hinged barndoors. Standard package includes 2 CT filters, one clear diffusion and one colored (3200K). If you are using this light at maximum power then it’s definitely worth putting diffusion filter in. The light is so bright at maximum power that you will need to back it off a bit using the brightness dial on the back of the unit.

Yongnuo YN1200 LED light is pretty intense and certainly powerful enough to compensate for a degree of daylight behind your subject, enabling a lower exposure setting on the camera and therefore fewer clipped highlights in the background

The light can run on A/C power or battery power using up to four Sony-compatible NP-F series batteries (sold separately). YN1200 adopts Yongnuo proprietary LED driving technology which does great job to avoid corrugation and stroboscopic flash. It also adopts double encoder digital dimming system which helps to make accurate and reliable dimming. You will not experience flickering or any other negative effect with this LED light.
