Keldan Video 8XR Ambient Cyan Underwater Video Light

The Keldan 8XR Ambient video lights are an essential tool for any underwater videographer looking to capture stunning footage. These lights stand out because their LEDs emit a cyan light, perfectly matching the ambient light at a depth of 6m / 20ft. This feature ensures that the captured footage appears natural and true to life, unlike traditional video lights with different color temperatures that can distort the underwater colors.

What’s truly remarkable about these lights is their performance even at greater depths. When diving to 25m / 82ft, I am able to achieve accurate and vivid colors by performing a custom white balance on my Sony camera with the Keldan lights switched on. This level of color accuracy and natural illumination greatly enhances the quality of the underwater footage, making the Keldan 8XR Ambient video lights a must-have for any serious underwater videographer.
