NEW Hive Lighting Bee 50-C Open Face Omni-Color LED

Hive Lighting’s small and portable omni-color LED, the Bee 50-C, uses just 40 watts to produce light output comparable to a 300 watt incandescent. Its 5 inch length and multiple mounting points allow for easy rigging to cameras, drones, practicals, stages, and sets, making it a flexible choice for compact lighting setups where space and weight matter.

Omni-Color Control for Matching and Effects

Designed for fast color matching and creative looks, the Bee 50-C provides 360 degree hue control, 0 to 100% saturation, and smooth 0 to 100% dimming. For white-light work, the adjustable 1,650K to 8,000K color temperature range helps you blend with practicals, daylight, or mixed lighting conditions without swapping gels.

Accurate Color for Photo and Video

With performance rated up to 98 CRI and 97 TLCI, the Bee 50-C is built to render skin tones and wardrobe colors reliably on camera. Its efficient output is listed as a 200 to 500W incandescent equivalent (depending on settings), supporting everything from accent lighting to small key or fill applications.

Flexible Power and Control Options

The Bee 50-C is ready for both studio and mobile workflows, with 100 to 240 V input via universal wall/battery power and 12 to 18 V input via XLR. Control is available via manual operation, DMX, or smartphone, so it can integrate into simple run-and-gun setups or more complex, console-driven rigs.

Compact Build and Accessory-Friendly Design

Measuring 5 inches (127mm) long and 4 inches (100mm) in diameter, and weighing just 1.5 lbs (0.7 kg), the Bee 50-C is easy to mount in tight locations and transport between locations. It is also compatible with hundreds of accessories, supporting light shaping and rigging options as your kit grows.
