A great addition in a filmmaker's equipment list. It is lightweight and the pocket size makes it a great tool to have it always in my bag. Build quality is very high and it has a terrific and very sturdy metal construction. The colors it produces are rich, saturated and very accurate. The brightness levels are very high both in CCT and RGB modes.Battery life at max power is 2 hours and charging it full takes close to 3 hours. Thankfully there's a USB type C port.It becomes quite hot when in full power which is normal for being so small. Although the aluminium construction helps to dissipate the heat a lot and it cools very fast.In general it is a great product of high value and a very useful tool. I recommend you get 2 or more of them so you can have more possibilities lighting a scene. I got one and then bought another.
This is a great light. I use it for video mainly and the battery last pretty long, but it is very bright and very powerful for it's size. I had an issue with it blinking when recharging it. I spoke with tech support and they told me it requires a 5V/2A charger block minimum. I put it on a new one and no issues. FYI most cell phone USB charging blocks are 1A or 1.5A read the back of it to be sure. I love the preset modes for lightning, strobe, police lights, etc. Very cool! Overall great light for the money.
I was skeptical about this small light but man it packs a punch. The amount of colors that you can get out of it is insane. The color accuracy is fantastic as well. Built like a tank to doesn't feel cheap feels well made. The only thing I wish it had was a magnetic back but you probably can put a magnet on velcro and be good to go. This light is half the cost of its competitors but last longer and has more color options.
The amount of colors and brightness on this tiny light are incredible. I honestly didn't think that such a small light could pack so much power. I was using a cheaper $40 light before this that was much bigger and wasn't hardly as bright. If you're looking for a good on camera light just spend a little bit more and get this one. It's very easy to use and love that the scroll wheel on the side has a satisfying click. Build quality is also excellent. Very happy with it so far.
Upon unboxing this, I was extremely impressed. I had my doubts at first, as I had used other external portable lights before, and was never super impressed, but this blew me away. It was like giving an iPhone to a caveman. Below are my pros and cons:Pros:- Incredibly Bright- Durable Build Quality- Full RGB support (360 colors)- Overheating Protection- Size (about the size of an iPhone X, and about 3/4 of an inch thick)- USB-C Charging (much faster charging and fits together with future equipment)- Lighting patterns- Adjustable Kelvin Temperatures (2500K-7000K)- The screen on the backside to adjust settings- Great built-in battery life.- Light panel diffuses light very nicely.Cons:- The provided cord is only about 1 foot. Not that big of a deal.Overall, I am very impressed! Most external lights I've used were significantly bigger, felt cheap, weren't as bright, required external power, etc. For someone who needs a light while they're on the field, I'd most definitely use this. I also really appreciated smaller features like overheating protection, as well as the adjustable kelvin that allows you to use this as a fill light that can match any setting perfectly. If you want a high-quality light that can do just about everything, id recommend this!
It comes with a soft pouch to store it in and I was really pleased that is uses USB C to charge as it’s a real pain having to carry around extra cables otherwise! It’s great more of these devices are moving to the USB C standard now. It also came with a cold shoe mount, I don’t really tend to use these on camera that often but it seems like good quality. I have a couple of ANDYCINE products now and they seem to make really quality stuff. I’m pleased with the light and will probably look for these again if I never need more.
It is surprisingly bright and I often use it around 50% power which means the battery lasts much longer as well. It has a great spectrum of 360 RGB colour hue’s and a fairly wide range in colour temperature so there is plenty to play with. There are several special effect functions which are a bit of novelty but do come in handy, the phasing and pulsing colours tend to be the ones I find most useful.
