Enhance Your MG2400Bi LED Monolight with These Accessories
The new MG2400Bi Bi-Colour LED Monolight is the most recent addition to the Godox KNOWLED Professional Lighting range, and features a special G-Mount light fitting targeted towards professional videography productions. This fitting is made for durability, has a better connection than Bowens fittings, for example, and has electrical contacts that let the light know which modifier is connected to it.
This means that the MG2400Bi Bi-colour LED monolight is only compatible with these specially designed G-Mount modifiers, much like the MG1200Bi.

Godox Knowled MG2400Bi Bi-Colour LED light: Game-changer in filmmaking
----------------------------------------
GP3/4/5 Parabolic Softbox
The GP3/4/5 parabolic softbox, as its name suggests, is a more structured, deep, and parabolic lightbox that focuses and directs light, resulting in a more directed and controlled light source. A white diffuser is used as the front cover of a parabolic softbox to provide soft light. On the other hand, if you want sharper, more designed light, you can take off the white cover.
Generally, with their ability to produce soft light, these softbox modifiers are excellent choices for portraiture and close-ups because of their ability to produce soft, flattering lighting. The GP range covers softbox sizes of 90cm, 120cm and 150 cm, as well as being compatible with both MG1200Bi Bi-colour LED light and MG2400Bi G-mount LED monolights. Depending on your demands, you can choose between their sizes; for example, the larger softbox diffuses light more widely.
- GP3 90cm G-Mount Parabolic Softbox
- GP4 120cm G-Mount Parabolic Softbox
- GP5 150cm G-Mount Parabolic Softbox
GL3/4 Lantern Softbox
Unlike the GP parabolic softbox range, the GL lantern softbox features an omnidirectional design so it surrounds the light source, providing 360-degree illumination. While the parabolic softboxes are mostly used for studio shootings, in contrast, the GP lantern softboxes are more compact and portable, making them easier to setup and carry for on-the-go outdoor photography.
Lantern softboxes are often employed in applications where a wraparound soft light is sought, such as portrait photography and general or ambient lighting in interior and real estate photography. The sizes of the GL lantern softboxes are 90 cm and 120 cm:
GO4/5 Octa Softbox
These GO4/5 octa softboxes are also known as octaboxes. These softboxes provide a balance between the natural catchlight produced by circular modifiers and the more defined shape of rectangular softboxes.
Therefore, these softboxes provide a beautiful circular reflection in your subject's eyes that can appear more natural than the rectangular reflection a rectangle softbox provides, making them excellent for portraiture and fashion photography. The full range of GO octa softboxes includes 120cm and 150cm:
GS33/34/44 Rectangular Softbox
These GS33/34/44 softboxes have a more traditional box-like shape. They produce a catchlight and a rectangular or square shape, offering a different visual aesthetic. For creating dramatic effects, you may use a single softbox, but the versatility increases when you have two or more rectangle softboxes.
Of course, their adaptability has made them a popular choice for many types of photographers. These GS33/34/44 rectangle softboxes are ideal for a wide range of photography applications, including headshots and product photography.
- GS33 90x90cm (3x3ft) G-Mount Rectangular Softbox
- GS34 90x120cm (3x4ft) G-Mount Rectangular Softbox
- GS44 120x120cm (4x4ft) G-Mount Rectangular Softbox
GR 15/30/45 Reflectors
In order to be compatible with the MG1200Bi and MG2400Bi G-Mount LED monolights, Godox also produces the GR range reflectors. This is the reason why these reflectors have electronic contacts, which let the light know what modifier is beginning to be connected to it. Unlike other standard reflectors, these reflectors only require a simple twist and a lower spill light when you want to install them. This enables the light to intelligently compensate for any slight colour shifts caused by the modifier for consistent lighting, no matter what modifier is being used.
These series come in 15°, 30°, 45° and 60°. The broader the reflector degree, the greater the spread of light thrown out; the smaller the reflector degree, the farther the light is thrown out.
- GR15 15° G-Mount Reflector
- GR30 30° G-Mount Reflector
- GR45 45° G-Mount Reflector
- GR60 60° G-Mount Reflector
GF14 Fresnel Lens
On the other hand, the GF14 Fresnel lens is used to create a spotlight effect and increase the intensity of the light beam. You can achieve a wider or more focused beam angle by adjusting the position of the lens.
With its advanced features, this fresnel lens empowers you to focus and amplify the effective output of your light up to 19 times. Even though they are both designed with the same power output, the MG2400Bi Bi-Colour LED light is better than the Nanlux 2400Bi when these fresnel lenses are used. Thus, if you would rather have more brightness and extend your reach, the couple of MG2400Bi LED monolight and GF14 fresnel lenses won’t let you down.
GP-19/26/36K Projection Attachment
In other ways, to add mood and depth to productions, the GP projection attachment range empowers you to produce creative and cinematic effects with ease. This is the reason why these projection attachments are usually used in filmmaking and video production On the other hand, by controlling the direct and intense light, filmmakers can create dramatic effects and emphasise certain subjects’s faces.
There are three options available for this GP projection attachment range: GP-19K, GP-26K, and GP-36K.
- GP-19K 19° G-Mount Projection Attachment
- GP-26K 26° G-Mount Projection Attachment
- GP-36K 36° G-Mount Projection Attachment
