Review on SmallRig 360° Full Color RGB Video Panel Light with Ball Head, 3800mAh Rechargeable Battery, Portable Photography Lighting, Dimmable LED Panel Lamp with LCD Display 2500K-8500K - Model 3157 by Paul Williams

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Out of the box this is the best video light I have ever seen, just wish it was connected to my phone

Rating 5/5 As a photographer I am regularly asked if I shoot videos. Videos are replacing photography these days, so it's best to consider becoming a hybrid shooter. .This is someone who does both photography and video. This light arrived and upon opening it I saw the included accessories and ease of use. First of all, I have to say that I own and use many other SmallRig products and the quality of their products is always top notch. Expensive but first class. This video light comes with a mesh, diffuser, cold shoe mount and USB-C cable. Can't figure it out as I've heard most lightbulbs don't come with half of them. The light is very easy to use and it gets bright! I love that you can change the color and saturation and put it on a cage or tripod. There are mounting screw holes on two sides of the video light, so you can change the orientation. The only downside to this light that I can see is that it doesn't have cellular functionality to connect and control wirelessly through your phone. If so, it would be perfect. It still doesn't do any of the great functionality it currently has. This is an exceptionally well-made video light that I don't like having in my arsenal. I will take this lantern with me everywhere. Pros Easy to use Comes with nice accessories Good bright colorful light Poor installation quality Cons No app to connect to cellphone
