YONGNUO YN-300 III LED Camera Video Light with IR Remote Phone Operation

I'm impressed with the brightness and quality of this! Only bummer is that the battery charger is made for a car/cigarette lighter port. It's not like I think of charging my LED light battery when I'm just driving around town...

Love them

Google gereral1 and in the channel type YN300 III in the search and check out the in depth video on light levels for 3 point lighting in a studio setup. You will then be able to judge the quality of the light produced and what to expect from them at different levels and distances. As for a text review these lights are great for small studios. The phone app works perfect.

I. LOVE. these. lights. I do wedding video and I use 2 of these panels to light the main reception events. The included remote is fantastic and saves me a ton of time/frustration. If you have multiple panels on the same channel they will sync to each other. This makes it simple to adjust the color temp of all your lights in unison and it looks way more professional than walking over and adjusting/powering them on individually. Also, a guest recently knocked over one of my stands (Sandbags, I know...) and the panel survived a 10+ foot fall. The housing of the battery that I had mounted exploded but there was no damage to the panel itself. It's impossible to overstate the value of these little guys. highly recommended!!

I just bought this light and love it so much that I have already ordered another one. I even plan to buy a 3rd one at some point for a 3 point lighting set up using only these lights. The light is super bright. Actually, it's good that it has a dimmer switch because 6 feet from the subject on full power is way to bright. I'm sure once I add 2nd one that it will be plenty for interview style lighting with both dimmed down a little. I purchased the non-Sony brand batteries which are the DSTE® NP-F970 Batteries. I got two and a charger for $44 on prime. So the light and two batteries were $110 total on prime which I find to be a good value. I don't know at this point how long the batteries will hold up but the nice thing is that I have a backup battery by owning two of them. The only thing that I don't like about the batteries is the charger which needs to go in a strip rather than the wall because the battery is so heave. This light is a great buy with built in barn doors and a remote control.
