OVERVIEW
S-2070 is a new light from SWIT’s Chip Array LED family, featuring the latest generation LED technology. This technology integrates LEDs into a chip, resulting in a smaller size and lower power consumption. The light offers a soft, non-glaring light with a 60° wide beam angle and a 70W equivalent output. It also has a cool touch and a 5000K colour temperature, with the option to switch to 5600K or 3200K using filters. The light has a wide input voltage range of 6-17V and can be powered by interchangeable DV mounts or batteries. Its housing is made of strong and durable glass fibre and can be mounted using a screw or cold shoe.
The S-2070 is designed for use with hand HD camcorders and is smaller than previous models. It offers a wider beam angle and equally spread light, without any visible beam edges. The light also has a dimmer control and can be easily installed using either a cold shoe or 1/4” screw head. Additionally, it has the option to be powered by a compact battery, making it a convenient and versatile lighting solution for filmmakers.

About The Swit S-2070 On-Camera LED
New generation LED technology
S-2070 is a new light of SWIT Chip Array LED family, with smaller size and lower consumption for hand HD camcorders.
The new generation LED technology, Chip Array LED, integrates the LEDs into a chip with high brightness output but in smaller size, and the most remarkable, it offers a equally spread, soft, non-glaring light, similar to the traditional Halogen bulb light.
13W Power Consumption, 70W Blub Equivalent
800Lux @1 meter distance and 1 meter scale
S-2070 requires only 13W power consumption but can output bright light equivalents to a 70W halogen bulb. The illuminance is 800 Lux at 1 meter distance and 1 meter scale.
Compact Size
Ideal for HDV camcorders
S-2070 is compact size designed, smaller than SWIT S-2041 and S-2050 Chip Array LED light, and more suitable to use on small camcorders.
60° Wider Beam Angle
Equally spread lights, no visible beam edge
The traditional LED lights use lens to converge and get a higher brightness, but dropped down quickly around, which will generate a visible lighting border in the image.
In comparison, the S-2070 Chip Array LED generates a 60° wider beam angle, equally spread from the centre to edge, and suitable for HD shooting.
Glareless light, Single Shadow
The traditional LED array always generates several highlight pots on retina and people will feel glaring, even can’t recover sight until a few seconds. In comparison, the SWIT Chip Array LED has only one bulb in appearance, and output a non-glaring, single shadow light, suitable for close interview shooting.
3200K/5000K/5600K Colour Temperature
The S-2070 LED has 5000K colour temperature and also equipped with a 5600K (Daylight) and a 3200K (Tungsten) colour temperature filter. You can switch the colour temperature easily.
6-17V Wide Voltage Power Supply
The S-2070 accepts 6-17V wide voltage input, so you can get power from 14.4V V-mount/Gold Mount batteries or 7.2V DV batteries.
The light package goes with a D-tap to pole-tap cable (S-7104), to plug into the DC-IN port of S-2070 and get power from D-tap power output sockets, such as batteries, battery plates, or camera handle. You can also select SWIT pole-tap to pole-tap DC cable (S-7108) to get power from pole-tap DC adaptors.
By installing a particular DV battery plate, you can directly mount a 7.2V DV battery onto the rear of the S-2070 light.
Power by Special Compact Battery
By optional purchased battery S-8040
If you want a compact battery power solution, you may choose SWIT S-8040 Li-ion battery to instead of the DV plates and DV batteries.
The S-8040 is specially used for SWIT S-2041 and S-2070 lights, with 7.2V, 21Wh/3Ah capacity, and can run nearly 1 hour and 40 minutes on S-2070.
The S-8040 has a 4-level power indicators and a pole-tap charging input socket. You can use SWIT portable Pole-tap charger S-3010D to charger S-8040.
Dimmer control
S-2070 has a dimmer controller to adjust the light output from 10%-100%. The colour temperature will not change during the dimmer controlling.

About the Chip Array LED
LED has taken place of Halogen bulb at broadcast on-camera light several years ago, for its high efficient output, low power consumption and long life. However, due to the obvious disadvantage of glaring, multiple shadows and shining, people are still thinking of the Halogen bulb that can feed soft light. Now SWIT has brought out the new LED technology into on-camera lighting, called Chip Array LED light, which integrates the LEDs into a chip, with high brightness output but in smaller size, and the most remarkable, it offers an equally spread, soft, glareless light that similar to the traditional Halogen bulb light.
The Beam Angle Comparison
The traditional LED lights use lens to converge and get a higher brightness, as a result, the effective lighting scale is limited. Normally we say if the illuminance drops to a half, it is considered ineffective lighting scale. So according to the illuminance-scale chart, in 1 meter lighting distance, the traditional lens converged LED light has only 600mm diameter scale, about 33° beam angle, while SWIT chip array LED light covered 1000mm diameter scale, about 60° beam angle. Moreover, the lens converged light has higher brightness in the centre, but dropped down quickly around, which will generate a visible lighting border in the image and that is unbearable for cameras.
