The Rotolight AEOS 2 redefines portable lighting by blending the power and versatility of continuous illumination with an advanced High-Speed RGBWW strobe. This unique combination allows photographers and filmmakers to “shoot what you see” with stunning accuracy, while also delivering a flash capability that supports 16.7 million colors and over 2,500 digital filters from LEE and Rosco. The result is an incredibly flexible lighting solution that supports limitless creativity, whether on location or in the studio.
Designed with portability in mind, the AEOS 2 is remarkably lightweight and ultra-thin, making it easy to transport and ideal for dynamic shooting environments. The fixture provides soft, flattering light and includes a diffuser dome, PSU, and power cable, ensuring you’re ready to shoot right out of the box. Built-in V-mount battery support further enhances mobility, allowing users to work untethered without sacrificing performance.
AEOS 2 excels as both a continuous LED source and a high-speed sync flash with zero recycle time, delivering up to 100,000 full-power flashes on a single battery charge. Capable of syncing at shutter speeds up to 1/8000s, it offers more power and precision for freezing motion or adding dramatic lighting effects. The light’s maximum output reaches 17,500 lux (flash) and 11,500 lux (continuous) at 3 feet, with CRI ratings of 95 and a TLCI of 99, ensuring outstanding color accuracy.
Control is effortless with the integrated touchscreen interface or the Rotolight app, available on iOS and Android. The app enables wireless adjustments over Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, letting users manage color, brightness, flash settings, and special effects for up to 20 lights simultaneously. The app also allows the creation of custom lighting groups and project templates, streamlining complex setups.
The AEOS 2 boasts a powerful suite of cinematic lighting effects through Rotolight’s award-winning CineSFX™ system. Effects such as fire, lightning, TV, gunshot, and paparazzi can be customized, saved, and recalled instantly, helping users add visual drama at a moment’s notice. The fixture also includes over 100 built-in special effects, GEL and HSI presets, and educational content created in collaboration with world-renowned filmmakers and photographers.
Rotolight’s exclusive True Aperture Dimming™ (FDIM) technology enables accurate exposure calculation by displaying light output as an f-stop based on distance, ISO, and shutter speed. This eliminates the need for a traditional light meter and ensures fast, accurate setups.
Another industry-first innovation is the AEOS 2’s built-in compatibility with Godox, Profoto, Elinchrom, Neewer, and Pixapro flash receivers. This makes it incredibly easy to integrate into existing lighting ecosystems, offering maximum flexibility to photographers who already rely on other triggering systems.
The AEOS 2 also supports an optional SmartSoft Box, allowing users to electronically control the softness, focus, and spread of their light without needing to manually swap gels or modifiers. This makes real-time adjustments simple and efficient, whether on set or in the field.
In every aspect—from its color rendering and intuitive controls to its groundbreaking wireless functionality—the AEOS 2 represents a leap forward in LED lighting technology. Designed for professionals who demand performance and portability, it empowers users to create anything, anywhere.
