The last decade has seen Erik migrate into broadcast television and filmmaking, where he has discovered a passion for visual storytelling and production. As the Light Dome has a large thirty-five inch diffusion sheet, it not only produces gorgeous soft light, it also creates the perfect eye-light for interview subjects. With the additional Aputure Fresnel, the LS C120D II has a brightness of 135,000 lux at a 1.6' distance. Aputure also make a fresnel attachment that makes the light incredibly versatile. The attachment features an adjustable lens for flooding and spotting the light output from a 12°-42° beam angle. I haven’t been able to independently verify this, but Aputure claims the light intensity on the wide side is 14000lux, and goes up to a blinding 67000lux at a distance of 0.5M.

Matthew has won 48 ACS Awards, including five prestigious Golden Tripods. In 2016 he won the Award for Best Cinematography at the 21st Asian Television Awards. As you can see in the image above, the 1200d Pro is boxier than the 600d Pro. I would imagine this helps make the light easier to work in tighter locations and cooling. Fan Speeds The VL300 LED Video Light from Godox is a light source suitable for portrait, still life, and location photography. The daylight-balanced COB LED features a CRI rating of 96 and TLCI rating of 95, producing highly accurate color renditions and rendering extremely realistic flesh tones. Godox SL150W II LED Video Light is a daylight-balanced 150W LED monolite-style fixture suitable for broadcasting, cinematography, livestreaming, and other video applications. Dimming settings range from 0% to full power. Adjustments to light intensity can be made with the included remote control. Supports wireless DMX adapters to control light with Smartphones, Tablets or Laptops (not included.)The most notable of these upgrades is its power unit - the C120D II is now powered by a single, all-in-one power box. Made of aircraft-grade aluminum but maintaining its lightweight build, a single power unit means less cabling and power components so filmmakers spend less time setting up their light, and more time being creative.

Comes with 5 pre-programmed lighting effects: Paparazzi, Fireworks, Fault bulb, —-Lightning, and TVI think the best bit, given I’m not a full-time photographer and I don’t shoot as often as some of you, is that using LED lights means that I see exactly what I’m going to get. Thanks r/videography! I was about to pay for an Aputure, and you convinced me to get the Godox. Super impressed and pleased with this!! The result was Aputure's first lighting product, the Amaran series of LED panels.
