Press release:

Remote Controllable Keldan 8XR 20000lm CRI86 

After the big success with the 18XR and 24XR remote controllable lights in 2021, Keldan has announced the release of the 8XR.

At first glance, the 8XR looks identical to the Video 8X. What makes it special is the option to use it along with the Keldan RC-1 Remote Control, just like its big brothers 18XR and 24XR can do.

“The big thing was really to get all technical things inside a rather small space in order to make it remote controllable. It makes us happy having finally engineered it and release a 100% RC-1 compatible and reliable 8XR Compact Video Light”.

Apart from being remotely controllable, the light now comes with 20,000 Lumen and a CRI of 86.

The apparent advantages of the remote control option are: 

No more swimming back and forth to adjust lighting when lighting up a scene
Fast and easy Remote control your lighting from within a distance of 50m
Place the lights wherever you want and adjust brightness from the Remote Controller
Connection works around the corner and through walls
Guaranteed new and more creative ways of shooting that were not possible before
Saves tremendous battery life as you can remotely turn lights individually (or together): On or Off

The 8XR is now available from Official Keldan Dealers.
