Daniel Keller of Kendan Lights at the 2014 DEMA Show

I’ve been amazed at the progress of LED lighting in recent years, and one of the companies who makes great LED video lights is Swiss manufacturer Keldan Lights. I bumped into Daniel at the annual DEMA show in Las Vegas last week where he introduced some of his newest products.

Keldan Lights start­ed in the ear­ly 1990s when Daniel Keller, an elec­tri­cal en­gi­neer­, man­u­fac­tured a dive light as a birth­day pre­sent to his wife. The per­for­mance and qual­i­ty of the light was so good that he was asked to pro­duced more for mem­bers of his lo­cal dive club, and the rest is history. Since then, Keldan Lights has grown to be a re­spect­ed man­u­fac­tur­er of un­der­wa­ter video light­ing equip­ment, and Keldan now supplies lighting equipment to recreational and technical divers worldwide, as well as to the Ja­pa­nese Self De­fense Forces (JSDF), the Swiss Po­lice, and the Nor­we­gian NAVY (among others).

At this year’s DEMA show, Daniel shared with us his newest video lights: The Video 4x, 6000 lumen light and the Video 8x that puts out 10,000 lumens. Here’s Daniel himself explaining the features:
