  • Perfect VK, bought one. One more thing for the carry-on bag.

  • @Rambo please do a review when you receive it!

  • Ya ok i will. I like talking points and that light will get the tongues wagging when I'm on a shoot. "Damn that Rambo's got all the latest gear""....haha

  • I just got mine. Build looks OK. Not that bright with a pronounced hotspot. Far bluer than anything else I have seen. CRI looks about the same as others with typical green spike in an otherwise balanced image. I am not sure the 2 sidelights offer and general benefits but might give some additional control in specialized situations.

  • What a unique design! Too bad its color temperature is so blue, I prefer 5000K.

  • I also have this now, the blueness matches the rectangular LED lights like the W96 http://www.personal-view.com/talks/discussion/433/w96-led-light/p1 but the light dispersion is much narrower and therefore brighter, thus much better for camera mounted interviews situations which is the main reason I bought it. The two together make a great interview kit if you need a 2 light setup or just use another W96 for the traditional 3 light interview setup and use the " ET" lookalike one for hair light.

    Agree the 2 smaller 1watt ears don't really do much other than correct a slight shadow in close up shots with the dimmer down.

    Very happy with it but as it's mostly hollow they could have make the depth smaller. It comes with 4 different temperature diffusers plus the non coloured one.

    Voltage is 7.2 - 16 volts as is the W96 and using 12 volts really bangs up the brightness over the Sony 7.2 battery.

    I'm taking about this kit as a small travel based interview kit obviously not a full blown studio interview setup.

  • @Rambo

    Can you make small video review?

  • Btw, just noticed that original light ptice dropped to $75 and $52 respectively.
