There are a lot of amazing options out there, but the Aputure 60X and Aputure 60D are the best travel-sized wedding and event lights in the game.
Thanks to Aputure for sending over the LS60x and always being a great support and for Pergear offering the LS60D for comparison as well.

For those asking about the base, it is the bottom of a monopod, similar to this: amzn.to/3J8JCKr

You convinced me! I've been toying with the idea of ditching strobes in favor of continuous light not only for for more predicability but to help me focus manually in the dark even quicker! Great vid bud!

Does it come with those tripods? If not, what’s the name of the tripods that you are using for those lights and can you send a link to them please? Question also open to anyone in the comments. Thanks everyone! 😊

I'm also interested in the question about the tripod. It is strange that the author has not been able to answer it for several months.

LS60x, buying one maybe 2 maybe 5

@aaronh.7317 Ай бұрын

I want to install the Aputure LS60 in a studio. If I turn it on and off with a master switch, will the lights automatically turn on and have my last settings or do I have to manually press a button or something? Thanks!

@BryanMiraflor Жыл бұрын

Great video, thanks for the info! As a wedding photographer, I’m curious on your light setup with these during a wedding reception. Do you use two or three lights? & how exactly do you position them?

@patresinger 2 жыл бұрын

Loved the review and will purchase (when they are available again) I have one more gear question, what is the small tripod (on your right) in the video?

Do you have any problems with the dj lights already lighting the reception?

@benjhaisch 3 ай бұрын

The DJ lights are almost never helpful in terms of key lighting, so unless they’re dead set on doing that, I’ll often be able to use these instead and let them to accent lighting instead.

@alyana22 2 жыл бұрын

Hey Benj, just a follow-up comment/question: how many of these would you recommend to be setup at a wedding (for photography) during the reception/low light situations?

@benjhaisch 2 жыл бұрын

Honestly, two is ideal but you might even be able to get away with one!

@tubeondahriver 5 ай бұрын

Would you mind sharing your experience as to how MANY of these lights would be optimum for (or how many do YOU bring to) an event such as wedding. Obviously, investment in equipment increases with multiple, and the hope would be that they would pay for themselves with the work. Thanks for your thoughts.

I just bring two and it’s always worked well

Does a tungsten gel on the 60d produce the same light as 60x?

Benj great content. How many of these do you use for Receptions ? (If using these alone) Or are you using a combination of these and the Amaran I want to get what is suitable for great lighting without having to test light configurations and pay so much. Again only your best recommendation if you can share for your Reception experience. This would help a lot from being lost in all these videos from people not shooting Receptions 😅 Thanks Brother

Sort of depends on what you need, but adding diffusion can always help.

ah, my bad. I answered multiple times on other videos but didn't realize I hadn't on this one. It's just a monopod base. Similar to this one: amzn.to/3J8JCKr

@@benjhaisch awesome, thanks a lot mate. I found another one, which is also very ncie: iFootage Cobra 2 Ministativ. Fits a little bit better from the colours.
