Summary
First of all, thank you for using the YN300 III LED video light. This video light is formed
by 150 LED lamp beads with 3200K color temperature and another 150 LED lamp beads
with 5500k color temperature,which are high-quality lamp beads of extra-large luminous
chips, with higher luminance in same energy consumption.The color temperature can be
adjusted from 3200K-5500K as needed,with more practical use;In addition,it adopts the
Yongnuo proprietary LED driving technology, definitely not appear the corrugated,
stroboscopic and other negative phenomena when shooting;It adopts the encoder digital
dimming mode, thus the video light can be dimmed accurately and reliable;Equipped with
8 channel grouping feature;Besides,it can remote control through the remote controller
or mobile phone,control the output power and realize other functions of the video light.

mobile phone,read the current luminance and channel of the LED video light.It can
respectively control 8 groups of luminance and power switch of the video light,allows you
control the LED video light as needed.
3.YN300 III is formed by 150 LED lamp beads with 3200k color temperature and another 150
LED lamp beads with 5500k color temperature,which are high-quality lamp beads of
extra-large luminous chips, with higher luminance in same energy consumption.The color
temperature can be adjusted from 3200-5500K as needed,with more practical use.
4.Adopts the Yongnuo proprietary LED driving technology, definitely not appear the
corrugated,stroboscopic and other negative phenomena when shooting.
5.YN300 III adopts the encoder digital dimming which can be separately adjusted to rough
dimming and fine dimming modes more convenient to use.
6.YN300 III adopts LED digital display screen, the power output will be more intuition.

1 Battery Installation
a.When the lithium battery is mounted, the battery is
mounted to a card groove according to the arrow
direction.
.
Note It is recommended to use Yongnuo NP F750
battery to get more durable shooting time The
maximum capacity of the battery is 5200mAh. In the
highest brightness it can be used for about 120
minutes please remove the battery when not in use

6.Test of Electric Quantity
Press the Batt electric quantity testing button,the readings show the percentage of
remaining battery power of two batteries.The readings can be divided into P0-P9 nine
grades,which indicates 0%-90% of the electric quantity. For example,the readings P3
as the picture shown indicates the electric quantity is 30%(Note:the power test with
low luminance is different from that with high luminance, thus the service time is based
on the current luminance).

7 Channel Switching
Press the channel switching button CH can switch the remote
receiver channels,the displayed screen appears H1 to H8,assuming
the channel of video light switch to H2 (as the picture shown below),
the channel of the remote controller will be also adjusted to CH2
transmit channel(as the right picture shown),then the remote
controller can control the video light.If you have more than one unit
of the same model,the luminance and power switch can be controlled
by grouping,at most divided into eight groups.(There is numbers 1-8
on the remote controller panel,which corresponds to the
corresponding channels,switch the channel through CH+/CH-).

8. External Power Supply
It is recommended to use YONGNUO power adapter with YN300 III to obtain lasting service
time. When using external power supply, the video light will stop the battery power supply
automaticallyand will not get the battery charged. The external power supply interface
outside is positive and the interface inside is negative. The input voltage is 8V and the
electric current is 5A.Note: If YN300 III defective when it is used with power adapter of other
brands, YN300 III will no longer be guaranteed for repair.
Use by inserting the power
adapter through DC power hub

The battery capacity indicates the
length of time available for the use

luminance required more power and
the length of time available for use
will be shortened, so the battery
