Take a look at the other Yongnuo videos on my channel if you're looking for something bright. The YN300 Air is ultra light and easily portable, but the YN300 III lights are MUCH brighter, especially if you do the single color.

The good side of the gopro style mount is for getting the light at an angle if your tripod does not support angling things.

J.R. Regenold - Did you buy the Viltrox equivalent of the Yongnuo YN300 Air? I have three YN 300 Airs - figured that I'd better get all from the same company in the (probably mistaken) assumption that the colour temperature would be more consistent. However, I am really interested in the Viltrox (which I looked at, too).

I bought a YN300 and a 300 air for home cooking recording . I'm not a pro but liked the results. Next week I'll post a video with this setup.

@@SeuRafinha Thanks for the reply. I actually went for the big guns. I got two YN300 iii. They look really good. I'll be making my first video with them this week. Actually the video is about them only.

MiiBooth Nice! Let me know when the video is online.

Which battery or ac adapter for it?

Absolutely. It's a small light, so it's not going to be a great single source (I wouldn't use it to light a pitch black room), but to provide a bit of additional light, it gets the job done.

Yes it’s a light it will light your small room. :/

Same question

same here, did you figure it out?

Lol....angle or u gonna pay a lot of money for non reflecting glasses

Yes. The NP-F550, NP-F570 and NP-F970 are all suitable.

It's a speaker, the Divoom Aurabox Light: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iLKibLJmp8yvm40.html

That will depend on your camera, but 60sq cm is only like 10cm by 6cm, or about 4in by 2.4in. unboxing tiny objects?

Jordan Keyes 60 cm x 60 cm (sorry about that 60 sq cms, was a typo) , Unboxing action cameras, dash cameras and mobile phones. I shoot with a mobile phone, Oneplus Two, 13 MP, f 2.0. No budget for a good setup yet, started with whatever i already have

Jordan Keyes I am planning to add lighting stuff now, then if possible i will buy a DSLR sometimes later (i am saving for a Canon 200D). I plan to get one YN300 Air and will use it with a foam reflector on one side with a white paper on top of my shooting table. Your help will be highly appreciated.

Ah, I understand! Looking at some of your videos, I think the YN300 Air would definitely help quite a bit with the lighting. It's not the brightest light out there, but it's small, lightweight, and puts out a decent amount of light, and if you paired it up with a reflector, that would definitely help. If you can afford the price difference, the YN300 III 5500k might be a better option. The YN300 Air is bi-color, meaning it can go 3200k to 5500k, so if you set it to 5500k only at 100%, you're only using 48 LEDs. With the YN300 III you can get one that's 100% 5500k color temperature, and all 300 LEDs in it are the same color, so it's a LOT brighter.

Jordan Keyes Thanks a Lot. ✌️👍

There is 1/4" threaded socket underneath, the one you screw the handle in. Instead of the handle, you should screw in the head of the tripod. Caution: The lighting support stand; not the camera tripod. If you wish to use the camera tripod just remove the head and use the tripod screw. If this is 3/8" you have to use an adapter. Hope I helped.

Softboxes will probably offer the best lighting setup for something like that. My most recent videos, I'm still using the Yongnuo lights, but I do supplement some of the background lighting with a lamp or two in other parts of the room.

***** Thanks for your answer , got one question about softbox , do you get the same " im getting my eyes burned " effect ? because when i seat with only 1 LED pannel its really not that pleasant at all , i dont look directly at it offcourse but even like that... is it the same with softbox ?

I've used them for over an hour at a time with no fan noise that I've noticed.

NP-F970 Big but very long-lasting in a light like this.

These are the softboxes: amzn.to/29oVSXW And yeah, they're great. I was just looking for something smaller and more portable, to take up much less space in my office and give me options for when I travel.

Well those are pretty economical soft boxes. They look great. For a static setup I am guessing they will work fine but I am leery about those CFL bulbs moving them around. Not sure how good the stands are but you certainly cannot beat that price. I do own a couple Yongnuo products and they are decently built and as you discovered the bi color ones do sacrifice the flexibility of multiple colors for output. Most people I know of are buying the full daylight LED (any brand) and then just using CTO . The YN600 and 300 non air can be easily softened by using ....a white plastic bag... I've tried it ... works quite well. Now I did order a couple of these Air versions only to find later that the belief they output the same light ,or close ,as the YN300 does is not accurate. But for table top stuff or even a quicky interview you can pop these on a table near the subject and you are golden. The big issue with the Yongnuo stuff is the CRI rating. Frankly I've had no issue but they are rated in the 80's vs the much more expensive Came tv lights. The new ones are basically the same size as the YN600 but you can get barndoors and softboxes to make them more practical vs the YN which really can only be diffused with spun of some kind. I like Parchment paper. Also the YN 600 has a fan that some claim is noisy. For me it's fine. Good videos.

Yes, it has a hot-shoe mount fitting.

What's type of battery for this led

Can i get link to buy?

Xentius xen better construction than other brands like the neewer, but I would stick them in a padded bag, you don't want to be bouncing them around.

Take the good, it saved us all so much effort to see this video, now I`m sure those are the lights I want. This guy did the job, I think his style is ok

I actually like it when it cuts, rather than him just rambling on for 20 minutes more
