Soft and hard light to suit your scene

The NanLite Cookie features two distinct light sources, so creators can switch between softer or more defined lighting without changing their setup. The diffused panel produces a gentle wash that works well for selfie clips or quick portrait moments. The opposite side uses a focusing lens to create a tighter beam that adds structure to product details or small objects. Users can simply press the matching control button to activate the side they need.

USB-C power for instant use

The Cookie draws power directly from any USB-C device, eliminating the need for internal batteries and keeping the body compact. It turns on as soon as it connects to a phone, tablet, laptop, or power bank. This feature suits mobile creators who move between short clips, livestreams, and outdoor shots and want light that responds the moment it’s plugged in.

Improve close-range mobile framing

NanLite shapes the Cookie-S’ output for short working distances. The hard side reaches up to 244 lux at 1m, giving a touch more reach at 3200K, while the soft side reaches 43 lux at 1m for gentle fill on faces. The 50-degree hard beam produces a slightly wider, directed highlight, and the 120-degree soft beam spreads light evenly across wider framing. Users can also turn on both sides at once to support dual-camera recording.

Simple brightness and colour controls

Three brightness levels help creators adjust exposure in different lighting conditions. Selectable colour temperatures at 3200K, 4300K, and 5600K make it easy to match indoor or outdoor light sources. A CRI of 95 and TLCI of 98 maintain natural colour across skin tones and objects. Users can press the button to adjust brightness or hold it to cycle through colour temperature, providing precise, tactile control when handheld.

Lightweight design for everyday use

The 21.4g body keeps the Cookie small enough to carry with a phone or compact creator kit. NanLite offers Cyan Blue, Lavender, and Coral Pink finishes, giving users a choice of colours to fit their style. The colourful clip-on case protects the light and attaches to pockets or straps, so users can keep the Cookie close without losing it among other accessories.

FAQs:

How do I switch between soft and hard light?

Each side of the Nanlite Cookie LED has a dedicated button. Users can rotate the light to the required side and press the matching control.

Can I use both sides at once for dual-capture shooting?

Yes. The Cookie can illuminate both panels together for phones that support dual-capture modes. Press both buttons to activate both soft and hard light simultaneously. This helps balance lighting for front and rear cameras when filming reactions or switching perspectives.

How compact is the Nanlite Cookie LED Mini Light?

The Cookie stays true to its name. At just 5.08 x 4.7 x 1.6 cm, it’s genuinely pocket-sized, giving mobile creators a light they can keep on their person without adding bulk to compact smartphone setups.

What is the difference between the Nanlite Cookie and Cookie-S?

Both lights share the same dual-sided design, three-step brightness, and CRI/TLCI accuracy, but they differ in shape and have slightly different beam behaviour. The Cookie is the round model with a 5.6 x 4.95 x 1.6 cm body and a somewhat narrower 45° hard-light beam, delivering up to 236 lux at 1 m. The Cookie-S is the square variant, measuring 5.08 x 4.7 x 1.6 cm, with a 50° beam that reaches up to 244 lux at 1 m.

Is the Nanlite Cookie LED Mini Light available in other colours?

Yes. The Cookie series comes in three finishes: Cyan Blue, Lavender and Coral Pink. Both the round Cookie and the square Cookie-S share the same colour options, so you can choose the style that suits your setup.
