The FRQ is to control the effects (speed and interval). 🤦🏻♂️

3:13 The FRQ or Frequency settings makes changes to the actual lighting effects. For example. If you turn on the Party/Disco effects, you can change the frequency to alter the effect to change colors more quickly (such as at a rave), or more slowly, such as at a children's birthday party. Hope this helps!

For about $80.00 more, you can get Amaran 200x Bi-Color LED Light. Much better light in every way.

The comparison with the Aputure Amaran line would also be helpful...because other than Godox, the Amaran line is also a close competitor in terms of build/price/features...but as of right now it seems that power output for Smallrig is only available at 150W while the Amaran is 100 and 200...

Confused between this and the Godox ML60bi. I like the metal housing of the Godox ML60BI. How is the plastic housing quality of the Smallrig 120B ? Long term durability ?
@Brotherthor7 Жыл бұрын
I’m a filmmaker and I shoot music video and some commercial ads but I’ve done everything without having lights. Would the 120b or 220b be best for me? This will be my first lighting purchase and want to make the best choice

Is the light being bicolor really a big deal when you can just gel? Then you also get a brighter daylight output as well. Genuinely curious as I’m in the market for a 220 light and I’m thinking to save $100 and just use my gels if I need 3200k

I have been looking at this light as well. I need a new COB light for some work. Are you really going to replace your VL150 with this one? Any concerns with the Bowden mount and durability? Lightweight is good, but when mounting a 90cm softbox, a little extra weight might be needed to keep the light from tipping.

Great hands-on review. Thank you. I'm getting two of these. Would you advise getting the 55cm or 85cm soft box, or one of each, for a three-point lighting setup? (I have a smaller light for the hairlight) I expect to use them mostly for interview type setups (max two people).
@damiencooper Жыл бұрын
85cm for key and 55 for hair light. I usually try to get even bigger for the key but that light might just not be strong enough for it. There are stronger smallrig lights out now though that I will Reviews next month 😉
@barryfinbar Жыл бұрын
@@damiencooper Thank you for that advice :) I was thinking 85cm for key light (softer effect) but was worried if the 120b is powerful enough. Good to know it is 👍 One of each feels right. 55 for hairlight? Or for fill? I know the Smallrig 220 and 450 are out now, and I'd get the 220 if I could, but there are so many bits of needed kit always fighting for attention. lol. Have to "trim the cloth"... 🙈
