Product Information

Full details

The SmallRig RF 05B is a versatile bi-colour lighting solution designed for filmmakers, content creators, and photographers who require high-quality, weather-resistant illumination in mobile environments. Its primary benefit is the combination of an adjustable zoomable beam and an IP65-rated body, allowing for precise light shaping in harsh outdoor conditions, though users should be aware that battery life may vary depending on the selected brightness intensity and colour temperature settings.

FAQs

Is this light waterproof?

It is IP65-rated, meaning it is protected against dust and water jets, but it should not be submerged in water.

Can I use it while it is charging?

Yes, but for optimal battery health and maximum portability, it is recommended to charge it fully before heading into the field.

What is the beam angle range?

The beam angle is adjustable between 17 degrees for a narrow spot and 65 degrees for a wider flood.

Does it come with a carrying case?

The product includes the light-shaping kit, but please verify local packaging contents for specific carrying bag inclusions.

How accurate is the colour rendering?

The light features a CRI of 96+ and a TLCI of 97+, which are professional-grade ratings for colour accuracy.

Troubleshooting

Light does not power on

Verify the battery is charged and check that the power button is held for the required duration to activate.

Light flickering on camera

Ensure the light is set to a constant output mode and the battery is not near total depletion; adjust frame rate if necessary.

Modifier will not attach

Check the mount for debris and ensure the alignment pins are properly seated before locking the modifier.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To begin using the light, ensure it is fully charged via the provided port before your session. To change light modifiers, align the attachment with the front mount and lock it into place. When using the zoom feature, gently rotate the focus ring to achieve the desired beam spread. For maintenance, keep the lens surface clean using a microfiber cloth and ensure the rubber port covers are sealed tight when shooting in wet or dusty conditions to maintain the IP65 rating. Always store the unit in a dry environment when not in use for extended periods to preserve the internal battery health.
