Review on YONGNUO YN216 YN-216 LED Video Light with Ajustable Color Temperature (3200K-5600K) and 4 Color Plates for Canon Nikon DSLR Cameras by Daniel Shivashankar

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Very bright and practical. I don't like barn doors.

I love this light! The only thing I don't like are the barn doors and I wish there was an easy way to just take them out and put them back in when you need them. I want to remove them almost completely, but I'm afraid I'll regret it if I ever want to use them again. In addition, the light is very strong. It's great that you can choose between 2 battery types and 2 color temperatures. I also like that it's round because when I want it to be directly visible in the frame, it looks a lot better than a square panel. Problem is the barn doors look ugly so I can take them off. I always have this in my backpack. With the ability to mount it on the camera or place it on a table with the included stand, this is my top pick. I've used it attached to the camera as a video light when filming events, or as a nice background light that I can easily place on furniture without the need for a lighting stand most of the time.
