The Ice Light 3 redefines portable LED lighting for photographers and filmmakers seeking unmatched control, color accuracy, and versatility in a compact handheld form. Designed by renowned photographer Jerry Ghionis, this third-generation light builds on the legacy of the original Ice Light, offering precision lighting with professional-grade color fidelity, innovative features, and intuitive controls. Whether you're working in a studio, on location, or capturing run-and-gun content, the Ice Light 3 ensures pristine, flicker-free illumination that enhances every frame.
At the heart of the Ice Light 3 is its powerful 22W LED array, delivering up to 600 Lux at 3.3 feet (1 meter) with an adjustable color temperature range of 2700K to 6500K. This bi-color LED provides exceptional color accuracy, boasting ratings of up to 87 SSI, 98 CRI, and 99 TLCI—ideal for natural skin tones and true-to-life color reproduction in both photography and video. For creators needing expanded color capabilities, the RGBWW model adds full-spectrum color control with 3.6 million selectable hues, RGB/HSI modes, and over 40 gel presets, giving users complete freedom to match ambient lighting, add dramatic effects, or explore cinematic palettes.
Flexibility is at the core of the Ice Light 3's design. It supports both AC and DC power through a 16-foot USB-C cable and compatible 30W+ power adapter, or with the optional removable battery grip. The battery provides up to 1.5 hours of runtime at full brightness and over 3 hours at half power, with the added benefit of USB-C trickle charging for extended sessions. The kit’s hardshell case holds the light, battery grip, barndoors, bracket, and accessories, making it travel-ready for location shoots.
Control is seamless with the onboard OLED display and tactile buttons, offering instant access to settings, presets, and memory recall. For remote operation, the Ice Light 3 integrates Bluetooth and is fully compatible with the Westcott StudioLink mobile app. This free app allows users to save scenes, group multiple lights, and fine-tune setups wirelessly, streamlining workflows for solo creators and multi-light productions alike.
Lighting modifiers like the slide-and-lock barndoors further enhance control by shaping output, minimizing spill, and focusing light precisely where needed. These detachable barndoors feature locking spring tabs for secure placement and are perfect for isolating subjects or sculpting highlights and shadows in portraits, product photography, and cinematic compositions.
Designed for silent, flicker-free operation up to 4,000 FPS, the Ice Light 3 uses passive cooling—eliminating fan noise and making it a go-to for video, streaming, and live broadcast environments. With a weight of just 1.0 lb in AC mode (1.6 lb with battery), it’s easy to rig or handhold in tight spaces. Its 9 mounting points—including a built-in NATO rail, six 1/4"-20 threads, and two anti-twist 3/8"-16 threads—offer unmatched rigging flexibility on stands, arms, or gimbals.
For creatives who demand performance, portability, and complete artistic freedom, the Ice Light 3—available in Bi-Color and RGBWW kits with optional battery grip and barndoors—delivers an all-in-one lighting solution engineered for modern photo and video production.
