Product Information

Full details

The SmallRig Control Panel (Model 3980) is an essential accessory for professional videographers, photographers, and studio technicians who use the SmallRig RC 350 or RC 450 COB LED lights. It provides a dedicated hardware interface for adjusting lighting parameters, making it ideal for managing lights mounted in difficult-to-reach overhead positions where app or onboard controls are inconvenient. While it offers superior reliability through a physical wired connection, it does require managing a 3-meter cable within your studio setup.
