Since it s launch in May 2015, the Rotolight NEO has become the light of choice for photographers and videographers worldwide.

Visual FX Veteran Stefan Lange (James Bond Spectre', Batman, Notting Hill) was keen to put NEO's CineSFX mode through its paces, and arranged a test shoot on set at the Sony Digital Motion Picture Centre at Pinewood Studios, with their latest 8K F65 camera and came away saying, "Before NEO, I would need several lights and filters, to modify the quantity of the light, the colour of the light, and certain functions of the light I would need specialist boxes and electronics, but with NEO, it s all built in within one unit, and it's still small enough to fit in my pocket!".
Incredibly over 5,000+ members of the photography community submitted their confidential votes on the Photography News Awards nominating their favourite photographic products from cross the world from best professional camera body, best kit lens, to Best Continuous Lighting product.
