Review on 🎥 Enhance Your YouTube Studio with GVM 45W RGB LED Video Light Kit – Bluetooth Control, Full Color Lighting, 3Packs LED Panel, 736pcs LED Beads, 3200K-5600K, Ideal for 8 Applicable Scenes by Andrew Walton

With this 2021 light bar series, GVM has really changed the game with low-cost LED bars. Up until a year ago, most of these similarly priced panels were... well, not very good. Color accuracy will vary depending on how long you have the light on. The actual light output is not very impressive. The mobile app support is also a big disappointment. The color accuracy of the 1000D panels is really impressive with a CRI of 97+. I checked the color closely hours later and I don't see the gradual green/magenta color that previous panels had. The light output has increased significantly, and not just because they increased the number of LEDs on these panels. They also put LEDs in small lenses. This helps to focus the light and thus increase light output. 15,000 lux at a distance of 0.5 meters is not so little! Luckily, GVM has abandoned the dreaded WIFI-based mobile app connection and implemented Bluetooth instead. This means an almost instant connection to the panels. There is no need to change the Wi-Fi network your mobile device is connected to. Simply the best system in every respect. Even the body is better. It's a much thicker and stiffer case that doesn't flex like crazy when you pick it up. This case actually offers some protection when carrying these lightbars. While the new GVM II app is great, I still wish it included a physical remote control. I'm sure the decision not to include any of these is an attempt to keep costs down, but to me there's no substitute for having a physical remote in the palm of your hand. While these are fantastic lights, I'm just not sure I would have preferred them to the new 850D Pro at around $30 more, more or less depending on what sale is going on and GVM usually has at least one sale for one of their sets of light panels. This is in no way inferior to the 1000D series. This is a really impressive set of light panels for the price!
