    Been sitting on this video for a while, some fresh content and concepts are on the way! What's your go-to key light?

    I know this video is sponsored by Nanlite, but the information you provide and the real world use case as to why this light could be more useful was great. Especially when building lights and tearing down becomes more of a nuisance. I was starting to look into the necessity of the Amaran F22 lights for simple setups on my shoots but could see this 120 series being much more useful. Great video. Keep up the awesome work.

    This light is 🔥🔥, love how simple the setup process is!

    Just got mine this week so far I really like it. I was surprised by how much light output you get. By far my favorite things about this light(outside of setup time) have got to be the built in Rosco gels. I like when companies think about how their products can work in larger environments. One thing I will add, that gaffer& gear already mentioned. You will need to find your own way to add safety chains to the panel as none come included.

    I'm glad I held off getting a panel til' this came out. They did it right and solved so many issues with older styles.

    I used the Lowel Rifa lites for twenty years because they were the best quick set up soft box solution. These Pavoslims are the modern LED version of the old tungsten Rifas. Thanks for the review. BTW I agree with your comments regarding the flexible panels - I bought one and never used it because the set up is a nightmare.

    I do a lot of interview setups, so I'm using the Molus X100 and Molus G60. Gives me the ability to carry a full 2 camera field interview kit in just one backpack and one tripod/light stand bag. The only problem I've had with the X100 is they're having a lot of reliability issues with the battery grip, so I've been powering it with a Smallrig V-Mount battery that I clamp to the light stand.

    absolutely the f22c does take as long as setting up as a cob with a parasoftie but it can fit places that light can't!

  • @svvancouver3307

    Thanks for walking through the headaches with F22 setup…you hit the pain points I would have ended up kicking myself for buying instead of the Nanlite.

    That wall mount in your studio room is interesting. Never thought of that but it makes a lot of sense. Convenience and ease of setup is great. That price point though, wow. almost $800. That's a hard hit there for the enthusiast.

  • @NicolasWaldvogel
    @NicolasWaldvogel ปีที่แล้ว +3

    fair points about the F22C. What bothers me the most is the bracket which (when you boom the light with softbox/grid from above) lets go off the lightmat super easily. I will say that with the F22 case, you are actually supposed to put the light matt into the big pocket slot, not with the other accessories.

    • @YCImaging
      @YCImaging  ปีที่แล้ว

      I actually noticed that while putting together this video lol (putting the light in the pouch). But I definitely feel you on the bracket. I feel like it never clamped down hard enough to secure the light from rolling when mounted sideways.

    • @EastonOliver
      @EastonOliver ปีที่แล้ว +1

      aputure released an updated bracket late last year that genuinely makes the light 100x more secure. You can get it for free too, there’s a replacement program and all you gotta do is send your light’s serial number.

      @@EastonOliver yeah I've heard this but I sadly missed the deadline that most suppliers had here in the UK. Really glad that they did this though

    Love your videos and content. You provide great info and use case for these lights - added to my wish list. I only wish you disclosed (up front in video) that this was sponsored endorsement. I’m only asking for visible transparency (you disclosed in links) as I think the viewer would appreciate it. I appreciate you very much.

    i want these lights, i do wish they came in a form closer to the amaran f22c tho (2x2), ever so slightly bigger makes a difference for me.

    • @aphosimages1246
      @aphosimages1246 ปีที่แล้ว

      apparently nanlite is making a coupler that lets you attach two of them together. Hopefully it will maintain the speed and ease of use the lights currently have

    Great review and produciton quality. I'm torn between this and the f22c ... for me I think it will come down to brightness. Which do you think is brighter, and is there much in it?

    Do you think it's worth getting this as your first light and skipping getting a COB and SoftBox?

    • @YCImaging
      @YCImaging  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I’d say COB as a first light, the bowens mount is very versatile. Nanlite has a bunch of great COB options as well.

    Anyone know a good cheap dupe for these lights for those of us who don’t have any income coming in yet from our content? 😂 i have my bachelors in film and television production and know a lot about lighting but can’t afford them because being a production assistant and these other low wage jobs they give people with our degree just don’t pay enough for us to create our own content on the side 😢
