Keldan Video 8X CRI 11,000 Lumen Video Light

11,000 lumens @ 92 CRI

The updated Video 8X CRI uses the same small, travel friendly housing as the previous Video 8X model and adds a new efficient LED module with extremely high color rendering capability! Now this light packs an incredible 11,000 lumens at high CRI rating!

Keldan is the only underwater video light maker to offer an LED with this CRI rating, providing the absolute best color possible.  The high CRI lights offered by Keldan in the past have been preferred by professional videographers around the world, and this new compact version is sure to continue that tradition!

It's especially impressive when that much lighting power comes in a rugged yet precise Swiss-made package that is ready to dive as deep as 200 meters.

The Video 8X combines the new reflector and dome lens configuration from the popular Video 4X with a higher output led drive circuit and larger battery, resulting in a super wide, bright light that packs easily for travel. The Video 8X takes advantage of the fixed light head style (as compared to the modular Video 8M) to shunt heat effectively, allowing for the high output.

Tested Specifications

Where other light manufacturers might use an LED (or 2) that claims it can achieve this kind of output, KELDAN delivers it.  Actual output is measured at operating temperatures in real world conditions.

This kind of obsession with accuracy is part of the reason that KELDAN lights are known as the best underwater video lights available.  Performance specifications aren't calculated, or read from an LED vendor's catalog, they are tested in real world operation.

Reflectors

To the keen eye of the underwater videographer, the shape and quality of the beam is paramount. The dome of the Video 4X allows for a 110º usable beam angle with gradual falloff. There are no hard edges to contend with even with ultra wide lenses. With a solid spectral distribution that does not miss out on important colors, this light produces a beautiful beam that is ideal for underwater film-making.

Beam angle in water when measured using the FWHM standard of 50% intensity is 90 degrees, but that doesn't accurately represent the beam pattern of these lights. The usable beam angle is much wider thanks to a very even and gradual edge falloff. 

Batteries

Battery packs can be easily changed in the field, supporting long shooting days, and an LED charge indicator provides battery info at a glance. Run time is from 45 minutes to over two hours.
