Great video. You probably forgot about 150C. It's also amazing one, but cheaper. I've bought it recenty and used only once. As a key light it was pretty good. I used quite big modifier (120 cm octa) in some distance (about 2,5 m from the character) and set light power on 30%. I think it was really quiet. I was standing really close to it and I couldn't hear the fan

Great video thank you for sharing! Could you please give a link to the main stand that has your camera and overhead light attached to it? Many thanks for the great content.

Happy new year Ben, and congratulations on awaiting the arrival of Baby Johnson! 😍 Just a heads up, the end screens didn't pop up at the end of this video as I watched it. Maybe go check the settings when you have a moment, unless it was just a glitch on my end. Take care! Fawn 😊

I am new to lighting and I still don't know if I should go with the 150c or the 300c. I am thinking of using it for interviews in small rooms, solo dance videos, B-roll videos in restaurants, and just experimenting with light and learning in my apartment.
@benjohnsoncreative2 ай бұрын
The 150 is still super bright, I’d go with that and overtime if you feel you need more light you can upgrade

Hello Ben Johnson,🙌🏼 Thank you for sharing valuable information for aspiring creators embarking on their videography and photography journey. Your insights on the budget-friendly Sony Camera A6 were helpful, and I noticed you recently made a video on the DJI Osmo Pocket 3. Which camera would be better for someone like me who wants to create videos and engage in photography? I appreciate your advice in selecting the best camera for my needs. Thanks!

The a6700 would be better if you want photo and video

Hello Ben hope all is well. I think it's a good light but way over priced, at this price you should get a remote with it I don't like lights that I have too use apps to control it, still and all great review thank you for sharing it with us
@benjohnsoncreative7 ай бұрын
It’s actually a pretty good price considering how strong the light is! It just depends on your needs and budget 😎
@laleteknialian62745 ай бұрын
u need light not remote just focus on point
@ezrarichardson2792 ай бұрын
Actually, it’s very competitively priced and (for once) the app is actually great and useful. I use aputure and amaran lights on set all the time with Sidus link and it couldn’t be smoother.
@dinbali7 ай бұрын
you're using it on a small lantern, but what if you used it on a big one, or on a 46 inch /120cm softbox, probably not strong enough, right? and it is a beginner light. its just a bit more expensive
@ezrarichardson2792 ай бұрын
It would be plenty bright, just as bright (if not more) as any other 300 watt fixture. If you needed more power then you would need a 600 or 1200 watt light, which is exponentially more expensive

Hi! I've been watching some of your light videos - good work,high quality! - but I was wondering... Do you have a good "budget" light option that can be used on my desk? I just started making videos,i have a webcam and everything is good, I just need brighter image but unluckily I don't have anymore space in my room to put a stand or stuff like that
@leonardoyezante32807 ай бұрын
I have the same one, but I have a question, sometimes when I'm shooting with my iPhone the light creates weird lines in my videos, how can I fix that?

I dont know the word in english for it but try to change the system frequency, or just the fps. 24/25/29

For a typical sit down video set up would you need 2 of these as a key and fill light?
@benjohnsoncreative7 ай бұрын
No you could use just one with a large soft box and angle the light accordingly to achieve as much or as little shadow as you want

Is it good more than godox sz300r or sz150r ?
@benjohnsoncreative3 ай бұрын
The app system is far better, but the Godox has perks too, mainly the back display, for me it comes down to compatibility with the app and other aputure lights, as a system I’ve been enjoying aputure more for more advanced lighting suiff like pixel effects with the tubes, but sometimes just using a remote can be more convenient with the Godox. Both a fantastic it just depends on your needs/wants

@benjohnsoncreative I bought the aputure 300c at 4 days ago and I see the godox sr300z have 49800 lux out put and aputure 300c is 20890 lux, So i sold the 300c and buy sr300z today. I hope this is a good choice. XD love your video ~ from Taiwan
