Portable lighting gets a fresh update with the Nanlite FC-120C, a compact and lightweight full-color RGBW COB LED light. Offering a wide range of color adjustments and flexible power options, it’s built for creators who need portability and versatility without a sizeable price tag. As part of the FC series, it shares the same sleek design and compatibility with Nanlite’s FM mount accessories.
Nanlite’s FC series has been growing steadily, with last year’s FC-60B and FC-120B delivering bi-color versatility in compact, portable designs. The lineup expanded further with the FC-500C, which brought powerful full-color capabilities to the series. Now, the newly announced FC-120C combines RGBW functionality with a lightweight build, offering an extremely versatile light for creative projects. It delivers a wide range of color adjustments, flexible power options, and the same sleek design the series is known for.
With a lightweight design that weighs just slightly over 1 kg, the FC-120C delivers impressive output and advanced color adjustments. Its 2700 – 7500 K color temperature range is enhanced with ±150 Green/Magenta tuning, making it suitable for various shooting scenarios. Like other lights in the FC series, it features an adjustable cooling system and multiple control options, including on-board controls, app connectivity, and DMX/RDM support, ensuring precise operation on any set.
Portable Power in a Sleek Design
Weighing just slightly over 1 kg, the FC-120C is one of the most portable lights in its class, making it easy to move and set up for any project. Its lightweight build saves time and effort, whether you’re packing gear, making adjustments, or attaching modifiers. The compact FM mount design adds to its portability, supporting a wide range of accessories while keeping the weight low. To ensure reliable performance on set, the FC-120C also features an adjustable cooling system with four fan modes.
Vibrant Lighting with Precision Adjustments
The FC-120C offers an impressive range of color adjustments, making it versatile for various creative and natural lighting needs. With a wide CCT range of 2700 – 7500 K and ±150 Green/Magenta tuning, it ensures precise control to match different light sources on set. Powered by Nanlite’s RGBW color mixing technology, it delivers professional-grade color rendering, accurately reproducing skin tones and fine details. Its range of lighting modes—including CCT, HSI, RGBW, and FX—ensures adaptability for everything from subtle, natural setups to bold, colorful visuals.
Seamless Control and Customization Options
Control options on the FC-120C are designed to suit both solo creators and larger production teams. Its intuitive on-board interface, featuring knobs, buttons, and a 1.9-inch display, allows quick and precise adjustments, even for beginners. For wireless flexibility, the upgraded Nanlink app connects via Bluetooth, making it easy to adjust settings remotely. For advanced setups, the FC-120C supports DMX/RDM, ensuring seamless integration with larger lighting systems.
Power and Modifiers for Creative Freedom
With options for AC power, V-mount batteries, or PD adapters and power banks, the FC-120C is ready for anything from studio shoots to on-location projects. It works seamlessly with Nanlite’s FM mount system, and the included Bowens mount adapter opens up even more possibilities for light shaping. A lightweight yet durable EPP carry case keeps everything secure during transport, while the USB port enables firmware updates to keep the light performing at its best.
