Combining multiple LED light sources in a compact body, the new MixPanel Series from NanLite is a user-friendly LED light panel collection. Announced today at the 2019 International Broadcasting Convention (IBC), the series consists of the MixPanel 60 and MixPanel 150, both of which allow the user to alternate between hard light, soft light, and colored light at their convenience, all with the touch of a button. 

The MixPanels can be adjusted depending on the user’s needs — whether you’re in need of hard lighting, diffused lighting, or colored effects, all of it is doable with the two units.
