Physical Designs

Despite its high output power, the M600R LED monolight is still constructed with rugged aluminium, making its compact and lightweight design come in at only 10 kg (including the yoke and reflector). As such, you can place it on a lightweight light stand or a standard boom arm. This ensures it is easy to transport and set up, and reducing the need for expensive, specialised equipment. This robust build is designed to withstand the rigours of frequent use in various shooting environments, from studio setups to challenging outdoor locations. 

For filmmakers who are working in unpredictable weather conditions, the Godox M600R eases your mind with its IP54 waterproof rating for both the unit body and controller. This rating not only protects the M600R against dust ingress and water splashes such as rain, but will also improve it's lifespan and overall durability. This model has been subject to rigorous testing in low temperatures, and maintains functionality down to -20°, making it an ideal choice for outdoor work regardless of the location. 

Similar to other Godox lights, the M600R features a built-in advanced cooling system to ensure optimal performance. This effective system prevents the M600R from interfering with audio recordings, maintaining the professional quality of the production and reducing the need for audio cleanup in post-production.
