Zhiyun is pushing the boundaries of lighting technology and performance to put studio-quality, ultra-portable lighting products in the hands of content creators. The latest addition to the range is the FiveRay M40 fill light. Using FiveRay lights with Zhiyun handheld gimbals, content creators can create silky-smooth footage with stable and soft lighting, even in dark outdoor settings, thanks to its stay-cool technology. 

Intelligent stay-cool technology
Zhiyun’s photography and filmmaking tools adopt the DynaVort Cooling System. Inspired by a panel of expert physicists, this technology applies fluid dynamics and consists of advanced algorithms, controlling fans and a gyroscopic modeling heat sink. By raising the cooling efficiency through intelligent control, its two-way cooling system prevents overheating. 

The M40 epitomizes simplicity and utility
The palm sized FiveRay M40 is a powerful fill light. Based on the attitude-control algorithm applied on gimbals, DynaVort technology enables better heat dispersion, allows for smaller fans, and therefore, a compact device without compromising on its 40W power, whereas products of a comparable size currently only offer 5 to 13W. Weighing only 320g, the M40 fits neatly in pockets, looks stylish, and is the ultra-portable illumination companion for videographers, whether amateur or professional. 

Wide colour temperature and excellent colour rendition
The M40, embedded with 176 LED chips, rivals the key lights provided by bulkier products on the market with incredible illuminance of 14000 lux at its peak. The adjustable dual colour temperature ranging from 2700 to 6200K and consistent power output peaking at 40W with no strobing, ensures a stable light source. The light delivers high colour fidelity with CRI reaching 96+ and TLCI reaching 97+, making it ideal for both photography and videography. Precise dimming of colour temperature and brightness is available via two separate wheels, giving you smooth control at your fingertips.

360° rotational bracket included
The integrated rotational bracket lets you easily stand M40 on your desk. Two 1/4" screw holes allow the M40 to be mounted on a tripod, light stand or even a camera, offering a faster lighting setup than ever. The light is charged via convenient USB-C. With 4 LED indicator lights that display battery level and two 18650 batteries built in, M40 supports PD fast charge protocol that allows real-time charging. Non-stop work at 10W can last for 1h 37min.
