At IBC 2019, Lowel was showing their new Ego and Blender XL LED lights.

The Lowel Ego is a LED replacement for their now discontinued Ego Digital Fluorescent Light.

The whole concept behind the Lowel Ego is that you can use it for a variety of different scenarios.

You simply plug it in, place it on the table and turn it on. The bi-color LED light looks suitable for taking digital tabletop shots, talking headshots, digital still portraits, and webcam desktop video conferencing.

The Ego will cost $199 USD and it should be available soon.

The Lowel Blender XL Bi-Color LED light is a compact fixture that is being aimed at Vloggers and YouTubers. It has the following features:

Variable Color Temperature: CRI98
Beam Spread 45-Degree
AC/DC Power Supply with V-Mount Plate
Compact Rugged Steel and Aluminum Body

The Blender XL is expected to start shipping on Oct 29th for $379 USD.
