Review on Honeycomb Softbox Effects Adsorbing Support by Cynthia Cooper

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Better battery life than advertised - it lasts 3.5 hours!

I chose this light to compare to my Aputure MC RGB LED light and it is superior in several ways. Firstly, the battery lasts about 3.5 hours instead of 2, as with the MS, and secondly, with 1200-1600 lux it delivers significantly more light output instead of 400 lux at 1/2 meter. I also love that Falcon Eyes provides a mesh in the kit, which Aputure doesn't give you with their LED lights. This version 2 model also added support for Bluetooth mobile apps with DeSal Lite, which allows you to easily select colors with your phone's camera to match everything around you. Some things I don't like are that it's heavy compared to the Aputure MC and the magnets aren't as strong as the MC's so it doesn't stick to surfaces as well, but for most uses it has a 1/ 4-20 . In general I am very happy with this flashlight and am now considering buying an F7 mini for it.

Pros
  • Maximum power 12W, illumination 4900lx at a distance of 0.3m and color rendering index 96. Adjustable color temperature range 2500-9000K.
Cons
  • Some issues
