Did you know I did another showdown, but for GIMBALS? kzfaq.info/get/bejne/obGif5phkrmxg2w.html

UPDATE - Pilotfly reached out after this test and helped me find the output frequency setting (holding the mode button, scrolling through some settings, finding frequency) - adjusting that to 120khz eliminates the flicker issue and even makes it perceivably a little brighter.. so they get an additional point back for passing the flicker test.

Thank you so much for this review. I was planning to buy Aputure but after this review, I’m going with the F7

If you think about it, you could attach multiple Apurture MC to a piece of metal using the magnets. Would cost less than buying multiple magic cube lego pieces ($20-25) each.

I know there's not a ton of delicious B-roll packed into this video - there was just SO much information to sift through. If you want to see some sweet b-roll, go see me handle it with MAKE ART NOW. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ndSRltKmnNbblqM.html

I have the Falconeye F7 and would highly recommend it. Super easy to use, extremely well built and really good battery life. Can't go wrong.

This review expanded my options. I was only considering Aputure before.

Really good review. One of the first where I did not feel he was either selling a product or himself. Good job.

I've had my Bolling P1 for almost a year, never had any issues. I even dropped it a few times

Ah man, this is the video that led me to my favorite new light. The, Pilotfly AtomCUBE Rx1. I was so impressed I got a second pair. Thanks, dude.

Thank you so much! This was the best reviews I have found. Most others discount Aputure short comings and just recommend it. Your approach was to look at usability and function. Really great for a beginner.

Thanks for the shout-out, Tommy. Really enjoyed the video. Question: Which stands were those at the end that looked like mostly vertical poles?

Love how my browser shares my data. I just picked up the Aputure MC on Amazon then your video shows up.

Man, thank you. I’ve been undecided on which to get for a while now. Thanks for the help.

The PilotFly RX1 has a honey grid and diffuser too. Have to buy separately.

I’ve had the FalconEyes in my wishlist forever lol then Aputure came out with the MC and I like the phone app. But seeing the brightness compared up against each other 🤔 I’m torn! Need to watch this video about 10 more times. Thanks for taking the time to make this! Awesome video

Just came over from your video at the Make Art Now channel. Great stuff man. On par with Gerald and Caleb. Safe to say the Subscribe button has been... lit...

Great review / comparison... I've also just discovered a similar unit from a brand called "Koolehaoda" on Amazon only evidently. It's got a metal body and battery lasts forever. Seems most like the Falconeyes F7, but without the magnetic ability or modifiers. Was $100 CAD, so probably just $75USD or so... crazy good value.

Awesome video, Im glad I just bought the Falcon F7. I found a Fold version for $130 from B&H OB.

After watching your video. I got the F7. Thank You. I'm happy with the F7

Finally an honest review, and not some bs sponsored video. Thanks! I’m subscribing.

Great, detailed review! Thumbs up and subbed... Gonna have to watch it again to get everything ;-)

Hi GVM. I bought your RGB because of Tommy and Gerald.

Wow, you just chucked that light at the wall!!! #savageAF That PilotFly seems really cool. It’s like, LEGOlite!!!

Wonderful review and a tremendous help! Just purchased from your link.

Solid tests. Def sold me on the Falconeyes. Thanks

I had to have my Boling replaced for the same reason. It showed no signs that it was charging. The replacement has worked well since then. Unfortunately, it died when I was away covering Vidcon, and it was my only on camera light I had with me. Charged it to full, no signs of life after.

great comparison video. really helps to watch it thru, cus if u just skip forward you may just decide with the MC, but after watching I think falconeyes takes it, at least for me.

Really nice review, good job. Def is helping with my decision on which pocket light I'll pick up!

Super helpful, just what I needed, thanks Tommy

New to your videos. Really enjoyed this review! Very chill vibe and informational without being clinical. Thanks for all of the practical tips. Looking forward to more!

The Aputure has got a magnet back. You could attach that to any metal bracket should you want to attach more than 1 light.

You lucky for getting all this light from almost every where. 😂

Wow you are so underrated! Great Camera Quality

Great review. I am sure it would be easy enough to dual mount Aperture lights but perhaps not quite as easily as with the magic cube. Now all I have to do is wait for the Aperture to be back in stock.

We used the Falcon Eyes on a short film for tv effect. It was great. I wish the effects were customizable but for the price I can’t complain. I highly recommend Falcon eyes F7.

Great job! I already hit the subscribe and like button before I even finished. You did a solid review and hope to see more great content from you.

i never knew there's somthing called Pocket Video Light, now i need one .

Turns background wall to a purple color with the GVM light, and mentions Gerald Undone. Coincidence? I think not.

Aputure MC is always sold out for a reason. Which I do believe this video proves why. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you Tommy!

I bought the Falconeyes F7. I am a lighting designer and I find it best overall.

Aputure MC is definitely not the brightest among the others, but all the features are very interesting!

Thanks. I thought to buy godox m1, but now i think ill go on the aputure

its funny because this doesn't age well. I bought my p1 way before this video and its still kicking. Holds a charge forever. Interesting. Although, the fact you didn't reach out to get them to help and give a chance to support really speaks volumes.

Such a great review! Thank you

Awesome vidéo thanks u ;) that's relly a great job and the best video comparison i'v seen those days, and u definitely made me make a choice finnaly...THANK YOU keep doing

Aputure MC almost check out every feature to be the perfect portable RGB panel, except for the lack of lux power / brightness, for now I'm still using a cheap $30 Fantaseal RGB light, maybe until brighter version of MC came out.

Great review I have been waiting for something like this. The main three all have huge benefits over the others. Hard choices lol 😂

Hope you get the chance to try out the GODOX M1 came out after this

Great video! Subbed brother, made me very keen on the falconeyes

I had the same problem with the Boling stuff. Had three units die with different battery related problems.

This was great and very useful. Thx Tommy for this vid!

Thank you, this video saved me a big headache. Liked and subbed. 💯🔥

Great video! Thanks for the info!

Great presentation and information, thank you!

Great video. Thanks. Have you seen/tried the Yongnuo yn365?

Well explained review! This video helped me narrow down my options. Thank you.

Excellent review , thank you..

Great review, bro!

Oh my, I just waiting for my Boling P1 RGB light from the mail.... if I new I would think twice before buying. Hope I am lucky to dont get a broken one!

Thank you. Super awesome

Really good review!

This video was a big help. Thanks

Thank you so much!

Best Buy Employee: How much sound proofing material do you want? Tommy: YES

There is also a diffuser and a grid for the pilotfly, they are on amazon, I didn't wanted to post the links directly so it doesn't look like I am hijacking your video! Thanks for it BTW Tommy, I am going for the atomcube!

my favorite is the ones I make. Seriously it's cheaper than all the options and you can kick all of these out out the door. SMD's, power, controller and about 2 hours. A 3d printer wouldn't hurt but I've just hot glued some to wood with diffusion paper.

Most perfect video! Thank you!!

good production

The Boling P1 is a great light! I haven't had any problems....

Hey Tommy, you need DF digitalfoto YY150 RGB panel light. its performance prior to this video you mentioned

Gut gemacht Vielen dank

Another great video my good man.

Wow also drop test included

Thanks...✌

Great video comparison, but I have doubts. I have bought the MC. It has horizontal stripes(frequency issue when it takes more than 1/500) The photos taken are completely unusable. So I returned .

Thank you for this review! Which tripods did you use at 16:00 for your small back lights?

I please have a question. Is it better to bay 2 Mc Aputure or only one Rx1 ?? I need some graphics lights to made a short movie, but i also need it to torche our face ( so Aputure had not anought lux ?) Thanks you again

I love Josh yo. He inspired me a lot. AND YES YOUR VIDEO WAS VERY HELPFUL FOR ME. Before this I only knew Aputure 🤭

It would be nice to also know the total light output in lumens, rather that just what is landing on a surface. When lights get scored in lux only, they start to win by narrowing the angle of emission. I can always bring light closer or pull them back to cover the desired angle. Or use a standalone fresnel to focus. Not really the point of these light, I know. But I would really just like to know the total amount of light being put out.

I’m subscribing to all of the Content creators 💪

have you evaluated the weeylite rb9? it seems like a contender against the falconeyes. i've watched a TON of videos on rgb lights today and YOU appear to be the ONLY ONE that showed side by side WHITE performance (which is what originally sold me on the falconeyes)

Yep. Same problem with Boling Pt, but can’t return it as border between HK and China remains closed.

The f7 has 97 cri at full white compared to 94 pilotcine, also the F7 comes with light modifiers for less price ($90 on ebay) where RX1 you buy them in addition. RX1 plus shipping plus import fees just doesn't make it competitive enough for me.

very helpfull and good review thank you 👍🏼

you might take a look to the new light from PFY called "PFY Matrix" which they just released from Germany. The cool thing is they have a smaller version as well.

with any magnetic plate you could actually group your apature lights with even more flexibility than the cubething

liked and subscribe. bought falcon eyes. on its way. thanks

Are all of these suitable to be used as a "key" light? Or are they only good for background/fill lights?

nice review, thanks

What about the Pixel G1?

😁 I saw that. Great job playing it cool Callaway.!! You know what im talk on bout lol 😂

Tommy, just FYI the link you provided for the Falcon Eyes I think is actually for a knock off one.

super this, super that..its just so super, super.

Well done Tom.

Tommy do you have any feedback on Pixel RGB LED ?

Does the P1 not have a warranty for them to send you a replacement light or fix the one you have??

Thx

my boling p1 flickers sometimes unfortunately, i bought it before all these other products were on the market though
