At NAB 2026, Godox's Barry Garcia presented the company's LITEMONS LED lighting line across two key categories: COB fixtures and flat panels.

Godox has had a busy year of it to date, with numerous products launching across numerous categories, and not just in its core lighting brands either. For this NAB 2026 show floor video, however, we concentrate on the latest in the LITEMONS series with Technical Sales Manager, Barry Garcia.

COBs and accessories

The LITEMONS COB range on display spans 150 W, 200 W, 300 W, and 600 W outputs, available in both bicolor and RGB configurations. Garcia positioned the fixtures as versatile workhorses suited to interviews, background illumination, and a wide range of shooting scenarios. Godox's modifier ecosystem, which includes projection mounts, softboxes, and lanterns, is fully compatible across the range.

Panel show

"There's a lot of opportunity with panels nowadays, especially some of the smaller stuff all the way up to the larger panels," said Garcia, and then proceeded to illustrate his point.

On the panel side, Garcia highlighted the LITEMONS L400, L600, and L1200, describing them as scalable options for work that demands variable coverage, from fill light on a tight interview setup to larger-area illumination. All three panels support full color and bicolor output.

Probably the headline product for Godox at the show, at least in this category, was the LITEMONS L800, an 800 W flat panel described as a soft light with significant throw. Garcia emphasized its dual character: the wrapping quality of a softbox combined with output more typical of a harder fixture, making it well suited to interviews and mixed still/video shoots.
