Honestly, before I bought it, I didn't know what kind of lighting to use for beginner photographers or even just for personal use, but I'm incredibly happy with this purchase because of the Quality. and price. This light is VERY bright in many lighting conditions and very easy to adjust. The light settings are easy to use and work well with lots of interesting and creative options. The battery life, cable and screen are excellent, as is the diffuser cap. I am very happy with this purchase and would recommend it to anyone who needs lighting! Easy 5 stars
