Lmao wont lie, you made me laugh a couple times during this! Not many youtubers capture and show the parts where they have trouble putting something together! Love the genuine approach you did with it. Definately have to pick one up! Keep it up man, you will grow with time! You have alot of potential.
😂 so glad you found it amusing! 🙏🏻 I’ve done a 5 month later review if you want to get a little more insight and also some soft box comparisons if you wanted to find out more. Thanks for your comment and thanks for watching. Stay safe 🙏🏻🎥
@@SamHolland you remind me of Matt Smith, he’s from Northampton, where are you from?
@@DeepSnowRider I was thinking the same exact thing!
i never knw watching a lighting review could be this entertaining :D thanks for the review mate!
Haha 😂 Thankyou! 🙏🏻 hopefully you find some of the other tips on the channel helpful too. Thanks for watching 🤩
Self isolating and made it to the end and I am ordering a couple of the godoxes and the light dome 2. Thanks for the review.
Hey bro!! Thanks for watching ... making it to the end deserves a medal! 🏅😂 ah man. Let me know how you get on with them! They’re so good for the price. I’ve been thinking of getting another! Take care brother! Hope you’re well!! 🙏🏻🎥
@@SamHolland I've had a few, fan noise is quite loud, is the sound mod with doing?
Hi Craig. To be honest, I haven’t done the mod as my fan noise doesn’t seem to be a problem for me. I know there are some videos out there on the topic though. Let me know if you try it 🙏🏻👍🏻
I've been looking into this light and stumbled upon your video. Informative and entertaining while being candid and hilarious. Keep it up!
Thank you so much 🤩🙏🏻 I hope you are enjoying the channel. Have a great day 🎥
Just bought this light on your recommendation! I can't wait to get this and try it out!
Woohoo! 🥳 let me know when it arrives 🎥🙏🏻
cute lol, this was interesting to watch. you have genuine charm. keep it going! that burnt orange hoodie looked awesome btw
jonathan jenkins Hey bro! Haha thank you. Primark special hoodie 😂 Pleased you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
Sam Holland you’re welcome. I’ll be sure to subscribe since you’re style of video is appealing and informative yet personable. Cheers to growing your channel and subs👍🏾
jonathan jenkins Thanks bro. You legend 🙏🏻 you will be a valued subscriber and I do anything to make the content for people here as valuable as possible so feel free to let me know any feedback or questions. Cheers! 🤩🎥
Thanks for sharing Sam, ordering mine now. I was using a diffuser in front of an 18" ring light and sometimes in front of an 8" panel so it's time to upgrade. You helped me make the final decision. Cheers!
Sean Helms Media Nice one man. I hope it works well for you! Let me know how you get on 🤩🎥 Thanks for watching and subscribing 🙏🏻
Just found your channel Sam, proper TH-camr, really like your stuff mate. I’ll stick around and hope to get much more amazing content 🤜🏻🤛🏻😁😁 keep it up mate!
Alexander C. Svensson Hey man. Thanks for watching bro and for the nice comment. You too man! Just checked out your channel and subscribed. Keep pushing with your channel. 🎥🤩
Hi Sam, nice work. And yes, I use 3 of these in the studio from time to time, really bright, with the umbrella type diffusers, which are quicker and easier to set up. Also try the globe diffusers too. Regards Andy.
THREE!!?? HAHA Crikey! I'm surprised there's any room left in your TH-cam studio these days with all that gear! :D Yeah the Godox is amazing for the price. Super impressed. Cheers
Thanks to you i bought it!!
Keep making these vids the way you do !! Im going to follow you from now on💯🎥
You definetly deserve more subs!
daan de koning Hey. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻 Let me know how you get on with the light! Thank you. Next video will be out very soon! 🤩🎥📺
i ordered the 32" octagon soft box from newer and it comes with a grid, cant wait to see how big it is. great point about set up, gonna have to find a way to convince my mom to let me leave my set up in the living room.. probably not gonna happen lol. great video, sub'd!
Hey! That’s awesome!! 🤩 let me know when you get it... and what your mom says! 😂🙏🏻 Thank you for watching and subbing! All the best
Great video I love how you review more budget gear than most channels!
Thank you! I try to bring value to beginners and intermediate videographers and share what I learn as I go along. Thanks for watching and commenting 🤩🙏🏻🎥
Fantastic review, love your style and humour!! Think I'll get the SL-60W. Subbed and will be watching more of your content
Hi Paul! Thanks so much for tuning in and commenting 🙏🏻 it’s much appreciated. I’m pleased you found it helpful. The SL60w is an amazing light and I’m sure you’ll be well happy with it. See you soon! Stay safe 💪🏻🎥
Great video man! Keep grinding, you should grow quickly!
Hey! 🤩 Thank you my friend 🙏🏻
Brilliant brother. Just bought the sl60w. I did get the neewer softbox parabolic with the honey comb grid very similar to the apututre 120d
Sweet man. Has it arrived yet? If so, how are you getting on with it? Let me know your thoughts.
Thanks for the Video, helped me decide to actually buy the Godox as my first proper Light, and cool channel
Hey! 🤩 you’ll love the godox light! So good! Let me know what you think to it... I have another video about it on the way!! Thank you for your nice comment and thanks for watching 🙏🏻
thanks for the review, I really appreciate your efforts to set it all
You’re very welcome! Thank you for watching 🙏🏻 Stay safe
Very entertaining video man! Enjoyed it haha 🙏🏼
Thank you. I’m pleased you enjoyed it and thanks for watching 🙏🏻🎥
Well that's it... You sold me on this light! Thanks for the great video.
Hey bro. Thanks for watching! Before you do, it might be worth checking out my 5 month later review as I discuss a few points that I would keep in mind. I love the light. Let me know what you end up doing. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻🤩
Can you give some examples of the Iso values with certain apertures and Shutterspeed like 1/50 or 1/100 at 100% intensity? Is it bright enough for low Iso?
Hi Nigel. Thanks for watching. I usually film on ISOs of between 100 and 400. Just switched to the Canon EOS R so will be filming between 200-400 depending on the lens. I always use the 180 rule for the shutter speed so if I'm filming at 24/25 frames I'll use 50 shutter speed. The light is usually between 75-100% and if quite close to me. I was also using the heavier diffusion and will be switching to the lighter stuff to have a bit more brightness. I hope this helps. :) What will be the main use for you?
@@SamHolland I make aquascaping videos (aquarium stuff). For that I already have light on top of the tank. I need a key light to light up my footage outside of the aquarium on a table. Mostly b roll stuff of products I use. I do have 2 cheap Chinese floodlights at home, but heard the CRI is not optimal for video work. What I hate is that I already have 2 godox pop up soft boxes which I use with my Speedlites on a bowens mount. Unfortunately this light doesn't fit in my current softboxes with bowens mount in the Speedlite bracket clamp. So I have to buy another softbox (I would love to use my pop up ones because it's much easier to store and use quickly when I need it) .. Maybe you know any strong useable lights that are tiny that they fit in a speedlite bracket? Otherwise maybe invest in a set of the godox sl60w. Just need to be sure that it is an improvement over my current 2x floodlights total 9000 lumens. I don't have softbox currently on my floodlights just some sheets (1 layer on top) to make it a little softer/diffused. Thanks in advance and nice video!
Just checked out your channel. Looks good to me. You're clearly into your production too. Honestly I haven't used many lights in the past without a Bowens mount. The only thing I can think of is if you use your lights and get one of these, amzn.to/319Y5Os and shine the light through the filter. That worked for me. You'd also need a stand to mount it on. Hope that gives you something to think about. :)
Do you have any recommendation for a carrying case or any kind of bag for this light?
Hey man! Just bought mine and it’s incredible. Thanks for this video! I wanted to ask if your remote only work when you turn on the Godox from the rear button as well? Also, on mine it seems that the intensity from 10 to 100% doesn’t work at all when I push the buttons. Is it something that I’m missing? Maybe I don’t make something right. When controlling the light from behind the unit, everything works fine.
Hey man that’s awesome! Glad you liked it. Yeah you can set the kelvin to 5600 and then you can control the light from 10-100 on the remote. I hope that helps thanks for watching 🙏🏻
Loved the video!! You are by far the most underrated youtuber!
Wow! 🤩 Thanks for the lovely comment! And thank you for watching and visiting the channel. Stay safe 🙏🏻
I've been umming and ahhhing about getting it. Gonna go get one now!
Awesome!!! 🤩 exciting new gear! Let me know what you think to it 🙏🏻 thanks for watching
Hi Sam, subbed! I am planning to get this light, as well as a softbox, although I am planning on shooting outdoors as well on certain situations ( we are a 3 member band and started doing our own music videos), wondering if this light + a softbox you can recommend as well as any external power source to go along with it to make it portable? Thank you again for your content!
Hi. Thank you for watching and subbing. Much appreciated 🤩🙏🏻 Godox have a few battery powered light options available. But you’d need to go for something a little more powerful to make sure you get enough brightness when filming outside. Alternatively something like a generator would do for powering a light. Check out my video about filming outdoors. You could always use some flag panel reflectors to help instead of lights depending on what you’re after. Let me know if that video helps or if you have any other questions 🙏🏻
I love the video! Super informative. Thank you 🙏🏻
Adam Bond Thanks for watching and commenting bro! I’m pleased you enjoyed the video. Let me know if there’s anything Else you’d want to know about :) got some more videos coming soon! Stay tuned
Sam Holland Hi Sam! I’d love to know more about how to progress from all the settings on a camera being in auto mode, to using manual settings like shutter speed, iso, focus. and audio gain. I’m so reliant on the auto features of my camera.
@@adambond8540 Hi Adam. Thanks for the comment. I am working on all sorts of video ideas at the moment but certainly a camera settings basics video. would be releasing that in Feb so keep an eye out for that. If you have ay questions in the meantime just holla or follow me on instagram. Cheers bro. Keep drumming!
Looks insanely good dude!! Great vid!!
Damon Watson Thanks bro! A little bit sad about the loss of quality when uploading to TH-cam though.
Ya can’t tell dude. Looks really pro! Looking forward to the next one!
Damon Watson Thanks man. likewise :)
Also if you change the temperature on the remote you can get the light down to 1 percent
Great video friend! Thanks for this review. I’ll be sure to use your links if I buy it
Dillon Johnson Hey Dillon! Great 🤩 Thank you bro and thanks for watching. Let me know how you get on with it if you do buy it 🙏🏻🎥
Great content! Love the way you present yourself. It comes with a battery as well. Just a costlier version
Hi 🤩 Thank you. I’m pleased you enjoyed the video. Yeh the battery version would be handy when you’re filming on location and don’t have power. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻 stay safe
I think there is a bi color version which uses the same remote so that's why you have those options
AHH That makes sense!! Thank you for the comment and advice :) Thanks for watching.
Cheers for the advice, been looking at the light but didn't think to pair with the Aputure light dome. 👍
Sweet! Are you going for it then? Might be worth watching my 5 month later review also BUT basically in a nutshell I still love this light. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
@@SamHolland yes probably. first light and only started looking at it as I have a gym promo to do. can't afford the Aputure 120 and stumbled on your vid. good stuff 👍
That’s amazing! You’ll love it! It’s a no brainier for the price! Let me know how you get on! 👌🏼🎥🎬
Dude.... you deserve more subs, good video! :)
Joel Subiabre Cheers Joel. Thank you for watching. Have you got one?
thanks mate ; what size is too big ? what size is the modifier in this clip ?
Do you know if there is a significant difference from this to the NEEWER SL60w? the Name and look is identical and they go for roughly the same price on amazon. Seems to me like the same product with a different brand sticker on it. Anyone know the difference?
Hi. Yeah from what I’ve heard it’s the exact same product. I think different ones are available in different countries. Other than that, they’re the same. Hope that helps. Are ya gonna try one? Thanks for watching 🤩
I literally LOL when you go to TH-cam for instructions on the soft box. Good Video. Except for my Siri going off lol. You got a sub from me bro. Keep em coming.
Garrett Davis 😂 Haha yeh I’ve gotten in trouble with loads of people for setting the Siri off. Sorry! Haha. Thanks for watching and subscribing!!
@@SamHolland thank you for making the videos. I am looking for a smaller soft box for the godox. Any suggestions?
Garrett Davis 😃 What would be the main use for it? If it’s just a size thing, the aputure light dome mini 2 is a great option. You don’t get as soft shadows as the larger ones but it just depends on space. I did a video also about the light dome 2. I haven’t tried any alternative brands though unfortunately
Hey man! Brilliant review. I had my eyes on this light and this review just convinced me to make the purchase. Also you’re very funny which was entertaining to watch. So bonus points for that, haha! Two questions: 1) Would you choose some cheap 2 kit light with softboxes like Hakutatz over this Godox? and 2) Could I get around with an umbrella when using this Godox light?
Hey man! Thank you 🤩🙏🏻 I’m pleased you enjoyed the video. Personally I would choose having good 1 light and a decent softbox over two cheaper options. I’ve had some of those cheaper options before and although they were great to get started, I found a better quality light and softbox more versatile. Having said that, it also depends on what you can afford and id never be a snob or turn my nose up and anything. I think you could use an umbrella if you have the space in front of the light. I hope this helps 🙏🏻 thanks again for watching
Hey Sam, great review. Watched the whole video. I'm a beginner doing product photography & video commercials. I used to use really fiddly cheap lights $30 bucks from China, but the tripod stand didn't held onto the lights/softbox really well and broke.
I'm looking to buy a new better setup. The Godox SL60W seemed to fit my budget, the neewer soft box seemed too fiddly to install, and I can't leave it on, as I have a very tiny packed apartment/room. So I need more portability.
Can you recommend me some good quality lighting setup? Thanks!
Hey. Thanks for watching and well done for sticking through the whole video 😂 that’s amazing. Yes I can recommend some options. Check out my video on the softbox comparison. I compare the aputure lightdome 2, the mini and a more affordable (collapsable) Neewer option. That’s worth a watch. And I also have some stands links in my descriptions. Hope that helps. Let me know 🙏🏻🎥
check the aputute alm 9
hey sam, you can buy diffusion paper and clip it to the barn doors on your aputure light from the beginning of the video. this will help save space and soften the light.
Tyler Thrower Hi Tyler. Thanks for the comment 🤩 yeah I do that sometimes but I wanted that extra bright but soft light source. Also... the Aputure light dome 2 comes with a honeycomb grid which gets rid of that spill into the background and sides (video to come very soon) :) thanks for watching!
1:51 - Lol, that's exactly my setup. 77D with the 24mm pancake and the Rode Video Micro
Dani Ifrim Awesome setup. Filmed so many cool things with that camera before the EOS R. Do you love it? 🎥 Thanks for watching! 🙏🏻
How is the output and quality? Is this good enough for bouncing light without having it a foot away from your talent?
Hey! Check out my Godox 150ii vs 60w video and see what you think. Might be worth going for the 150 but it all depends how much light you need. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻🎥
I love your genuine excitement. Def subbing
Thank you 🤩 I do love camera gear! What do you think to the Godox light? I have a 5 month later review if you haven’t seen it yet and I’m also just about to start filming some lighting tutorials with the Godox! 🙏🏻 Thanks for watching
Sam Holland I just ordered the light! Can't wait for more videos!
Awesome! 🤩 that’s exciting! Let me know what you think to it when it arrives! Happy filming 🎥🙏🏻
Do you have the information on the stand you use to sit the light on?
BrightsideBLVD Hey. Thanks for watching. Here’s the link to the stand I use. amzn.to/2sgUalH I really recommend it for the price. Very sturdy and looks great. Thanks again :) let me know what you think
Came back just to comment that this was really helpful. Thanks!
Hey Drew. So pleased you found this video helpful. There’s a 5 month later video now too if that helps?! Thanks for watching 🙏🏻 stay safe 🎥
Sam Holland thanks, I checked that out too and it was great. I ordered the light too. So happy with it so far!
Good! 🤩 So pleased you like it! 🙏🏻🎥
Funny Video haha, you actually show how long it takes to set everything up, in a sympathic way
😂 Thank you. I’m pleased you enjoyed the video. I’ve got a few more videos about softboxes and lights etc since this one. I hope these help too. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻 Stay safe
Thanks for the video! Which softbox in particular are you using here?
Great video man, I've been looking into getting this light but you've definitely just convinced me, especially for the price! What's the RGB panel light behind you? The blue one? Subbed 👍🏻🙌🏻
Hey man. Thanks for the sub! 👍🏻 The panel light is the Aputure HR672S amzn.to/3akchra I just cut some gels up and slot them into the panel as it’s just one temperature. Hope this helps bro. Thanks for watching. Let me know what you think to the light when it comes 🤩
good content you had me laughing😂 thanks for the review.
Hey! That’s amazing 🤩 so pleased you found the video entertaining and thank you for watching 🙏🏻 Stay safe
Seriously enjoyed watching this... also, v funny! 😂😂
Haha thank you 🤩😂 I’m pleased you enjoyed the video and thanks for watching. Hope it helped. I have another Godox video coming soon 🎥🙏🏻🤩 have a great day
@@SamHolland very happy to hear! Comes right in time too... I'm due a new light, and might I say the Godox is deffo top of my list (may or may not be because of all your dope and thorough reviews 😅💸)
😂 well my channel is pretty much built on Godox videos 😂 you can’t go wrong to be fair. Only a few things to consider: cost, size, or brightness. There’s one for all 🤩🎥😂🙏🏻
Great Video. Love you and the dog. It's quite enjoyable to watch you be normal and natural. I am going to buy this and the Laofas because of you. Thank you. Keep making these videos. :)
Thank you 🙏🏻🤩 I hope you enjoy the new gear! Thanks for watching 🎥
I been watch lots of reviews on lights these days from some well knows peoples here on youtube, but watching this was amazing, You are showing the problems and explaining in detail so new peoples that actually don't know alot about light and soft boxes can follow what you are trying to say, But i really hated the video before 13 minuets, if you wanna show the hassle you can do that but 13 minuets is alot, I hit sub Cuz i believe you videos will get better in future, again Great Video
Hi. I’m pleased you found this video helpful. Thanks for the feedback. Yes this is an old video of mine, one of my first. Hopefully I have improved 😂 Thanks for watching 🙏🏻🎥🤩
real professional video, helped i got one for myself and by the way you deserve a lot more subs
Hi Priyanka 🤩 So pleased this video helped. Have you tried your light yet, or just ordered it? Thank you 🙏🏻 and thanks for watching. Stay safe 🎥
@@SamHolland hi i have just ordered it, havent got the delivery yet. i have a question for you did you try the lamp cover as spotlight i make. music videos so it would be very useful if it can be used like that
Hey. You must be excited to receive the light 🤩 yeah I love that about it. It looks so good. I want to get another so I can use one with a softbox and one with the lamp cover 😂
@@SamHolland yep very excited 😃 i did not buy any softbox and aperture is very expensive... Will buy something cheaper and of course easy to assemble.
Let me know when it arrives 🤩
Hello from Kyiv Ukraine. I use Ambitful deep parabolic soft boxes. I have the 2 x 90cm and 2 x 120cm. They come with 2 diffusion panels and a grid is optional. They come fully assembled and use the quick set up and collapse mechanism the same as Apurture but they are a lot cheaper and the quality is exactly the same. The 120cm with grid and a bag cost £100. I have tried a few different brands but these seem to be the best and I have been using them for 1 year already.
Пітер Андрій Thats awesome. I like value for money and accessories. Thanks for the info and thanks for watching! 🙏🏻
awesome review! I've got the aputure mini 2 with it but also comes with a grid so lest see how soft light i get. Unfortunately don't have the room for a larger softbox. Question: can you control 2 separate lights with the one remote controller?
Hi chris. Yes you can control multiple lights and groups with the remote 🤩🎥 hope this helps
awesome review im thinking to get it, good value
NOW OR NEVER VDO Thank you for watching and commenting. Yeh great value for money. You could get two of these and the light dome 2 and mini 2 for the same price as 1 Aputure. That’s great value. Let me know what you do :) cheers!
Has anyone did a review on this Andoer DL-80 ? can't find on youtube..
Great video. Did you ever find out if you could change the kelvin?
Hi. Yes I did. You can’t change it unfortunately. But I have plenty of videos on TH-cam with lights that are bi colour. I hope this helps 🤩🙏🏻🎥
this arrived yesterday with a light dome mini. I'm impressed with it. its great, my only concern is the cable doesn't feel secure in the back of the light, kind of wobbles a lot. Do you get this problem also? Cheers ✌🏼
Hey! 🤩 Thats exciting!! I love the lightdome mini!! It’s so compact! Oh no that’s strange. There is a little bit of play in the cable but seems normal and secure. Mine is the C13 style UK cable. Maybe just keep an eye on it and make sure it doesn’t cut out if you move it. Or send it back for another one? Let me know what happens 🙏🏻
Sam Holland thanks man. I’m using it later for a film test so will let you know ✌️
Woo! 🥳 exciting. Hope it goes well 🙏🏻
Great video man! just got mine! Going to set it up today.. Question for you.. did you shoot in 24fps or 60fps?
Hey. Thanks for watching. Let me know how you get on with the light and what you think. I shot in 24 for the talking and 60 for the B roll.
Hi Sam, thanks for sharing. Did you find out if you can change the Kelvin? Thanks.
Hi. Yeah it’s just a set temperature. I’ve done a few more reviews on this since and some comparisons to the sl150ii if that helps. Thanks for watching 🤩🙏🏻👌🏻
@@SamHolland I watched all 3 videos, but I couldn't find if on the SL60W changing the Kelvin on the remote, actually is doing something. On my SL60W I don't see any change. Thx
This light ....what would you say its primary use would be in video shoots ?......To light maybe from small products to medium size products and half shots of people at the max ?? Cant be used to light spaces and brighten rooms up for a video shoot right ?
You’re right. I compare it to the sl150ii in another video. It’s an amazing light for bedroom use and small products but not great for slow motion etc
@@SamHolland > Thanks mate. What would you suggest to brighten up a 200 sqft room ? I can fire bare to the ceiling to get diffusion.
Thanks for the upload. Can you tell me if you see any flickering in the video if shooting fast shutter slow mo videos?
bauljgd Hey. Thanks for watching and the comment. I have used slow mo lots and it’s been fine but I’ll test other settings today for you and let you know. What frame rate are you using?? 🙏🏻🎥
@@SamHolland 1/250 for 120 fps video
Hey. Just tried a bunch of settings and no flicker so all positive :)
@@SamHolland Thanks for taking out the time to check Sam. Really appreciate it. I will buy these too now.
@@bauljgd You're welcome. Let me know how you get on :)
How and where are you suppose to attach an umbrella to this thing?
The dog's face at 4:51 LMFAO
I can't change color temperature too, any update?
Really good video! The lighting looks good, I'm still nervous cause you said there's fan noise. Even at 25% the fan is already on? It doesn't turn on at a certain power only?
Re: your comment, you cant change the kelvin, it says in the product manual that you need to set it to whatever version you're using since they only made one remote for both.
That’s right. The fan is always on. I’ve since been using the SL150II and that has a silent fan mode which is incredible. Thanks for your comment 🙏🏻 and thanks for watching 🎥🎥
Thanks that's so useful. I also wonder about other soft boxes that are more affordable, retractable and easy to store that can work with these light... I don't have a lot of space! thanks
Hi thanks so much for watching and commenting. I have some videos about softboxes here... th-cam.com/video/GWjf7Xh3_yA/w-d-xo.html
And here
th-cam.com/video/uAEx3lPhMPo/w-d-xo.html
I recommend the laofas for the price because they’re amazing. All links are in the description of those videos if you want to check them out 🤩🙏🏻
This light is very nice!
I have the same light, so I use it a lot.
The amount of light is also strong, so it is useful when shooting.
The video was very interesting. I will come to play again.
With love from Japan :)
Thank you so much 🙏🏻 it is a great light and I hope you enjoy it 🎥🤩
@@SamHolland It was very interesting! I subscribed to the channel! Please come visit me on my channel :)
So happy for this🔥🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾., now did the stand come with it???
Hi. 🤩 it’s a super awesome light. The stand didn’t come with it but I put some links to stands in the description for you 🙏🏻 I also have some more up to date videos of this light if you need more details. Thanks for watching 🎥
Did you also het the light standard with the godox or do i need to buy it seperately? And how is the noise of the fan, is it really annoying or can you deal with it?
Hey bro. I had to purchase the stand separately. I’ve left a few options in the description below for you to check out. Personally I think the fan noise isn’t too bad as I have a shotgun mic close to where I speak so it doesn’t pick up any of the fan noise. But it all depends on your set up really. My ninja v monitor fan is probably louder to be honest. Hope this video helps. Sorry I can’t be more specific with the fan noise. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
@@SamHolland thanks for the quick respond! really am looking for a good set of gear to start my own video company, and I want to start out with 1 key light being an alternative to the aputure 120D, and a second (back) light which will be a small pocket aputure led panel. Loved the video btw!
You’re welcome. 🤩 I try to reply when I can. Did you see my 5 months later video about the Godox? That might be worth watching. I think the sl60w is an amazing light for the price but when doing slow motion, I would like a little extra power so maybe one of the other higher output Godox lights is worth looking at. That way it may be more versatile for your productions. It all depends what you’re doing more of. Thanks again for watching. Let me know if you have any other questions 🙏🏻🎥💪🏻
Why do you only have 600 subscribers?! That's some really great video making skills mate!
😂 Thank you my friend! 🙏🏻 What did you think to the light? Have you tried one? I also did a 5 month later review with some more insight if that helps... thanks for watching 🙏🏻 stay safe
Sam Holland looking at picking one up. Thinking about getting my TH-cam channel back up. From what I see, the SL60W looks like a solid alternative to the 120d and I might get it.
Hopefully you’re staying safe too 😊
That’s great! 🤩 I’ll check out your channel. 📺 The only thing I mention in that other video that is a slight downfall (in my opinion) is that it’s not bright enough for when shooting at higher shutter speeds or slow motion when you need the extra light. Other than that, I love it!! Still perfectly fine and that’s just me being picky. For the price it is incredible. Thanks bro 🙏🏻
Sam Holland mmmm yeah just finished watching that video.. some great points. I’ll have a bit more thinking before getting it. Haha the channel was really bad back then. Have a few ideas 💡 for the upcoming future. Maybe it’ll be worth checking out then 😅
Let me know what you end up doing. I’ll look out for your new stuff 🤩👌🏻🎥
pull the slots at the back and u can hold it then mount it while the light is on the stand
Do use the reflector when you put the Softbox ?
Do I need to buy the light with reflector or without it ? Because I found some seller have the light without the reflector for only $90
Thank you
RakanDop Hi. Thanks for watching and commenting...
I don’t use the reflector when using the soft box as it used the Bowen’s mount and can’t fit both on at the same time. Let me know how you get on.
Links are below so you can see which ones I got. 🙏🏻🎥🤩
Sam Holland Thank you for replying , have you used only reflector in some situation? because i'm wondering if I will buy the light with reflector or without it
RakanDop Yeah. I use it sometimes in the frame for certain shots! It looks cool. Plus it works well if you want to illuminate a large area! But it’s personal taste. If you think you’ll need it one day (and you have the money) go for it :)
Sam Holland you're completely right , Have a good day.
RakanDop Cheers bro! Have a good day! Let me know how you get on with the light. Stay tuned brotha
cool Video Sam. I have a similar softbox and you can un-flap the back of it to reach your hand inside, making it much easier to attach the softbox to the light. Great video. The fan noise doesn't bother me at all either.
Awthentik Ah which one have you got? I’ve got the aputure light dome 2 now with the flaps and it’s so much easier than what I was trying before in this video 😂 yeh I barely notice the fan. It’s a great light isn’t it. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻🎥
@@SamHolland love the light! I'm an audio engineer by day, and the fan isn't a problem at all. I got the 38" Glow EZ Lock Deep Parabolic Quick Softbox. Thing is huge and the one downfall on the light is the latch to lock it in position. If you have a heavy softbox, it will definitely loosen and till down. I'm looking to find somethings at home depot, maybe some extra washers or something to keep it nice and snuggy tight.
@@Awthentik That will definitely work. I used to put washers in mic stands that weren't as tight anymore and it works a treat. Good idea for the light too.
Sam Holland I’ll let you know how it goes.
@@AwthentikandTheBeard YES Please do!
Great light. Thanks for the video man. Just curious. What aperture do you use? I think your nose is blurry.
Yeah it’s a great light! I love it. Well I was using the Sony A7iii here and the focus was all over the place. I now use the Canon eos R and am so glad I switched 😂 Thanks for watching! 🙏🏻
You are super entertaining. Keep up the good work. Greetings from California. Subbed.
Hey! 🤩 Thank you. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻🎥 🇺🇸
Thanks you, i now know what light ima get
Hey man. I also did a 5 month later review on the Godox in case you wanted a little more up to date info on it. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻 let me know how you get on! 🎥
I so much like your setup.
Very simple.... I think I’ll replicate this 😉😉😉... and oh the temp values on the remote are for other godox SL products...cheers mate
KodjoEdem Hey. Thank you! Pleased you like the setup. Thanks for watching bro! Have you got the godox?
Sam Holland I haven’t ordered yet. It’s out of stock in my country. Hopefully it restocks soon. Otherwise I’d have to find an alternative (buy online) Amazon shipping and tax is expensive
KodjoEdem oh no. Let me know if you finally get one :) hopefully you don’t have to wait too long!
Sam Holland I just ordered on B&H photo together with the Samson G track Pro 🎙 . In place of the neewer softbox I got the Godox P90H. Hopefully I get it in 7 business days Max. (Soft box will take longer). I’ll review as well. Kindly subscribe to my channel for updates on both items and more
@@Kodjoedem Awesome! Let us know what you think :D
Great video thanks for the help.
Thank you. You're welcome. :)
I am planning to buy this light but can you also please provide the neewer soft box link ?
Hey. Sure! If you go on my latest video upload about the Neewer softbox, the link is in the description 🙏🏻🎥 Thanks again for watching
@@SamHolland Just recieved this light bro loving it!
Mohit that’s so good! I’m pleased you like it bro! 🙏🏻🎥🤩 it’s great isn’t it!
What stand do you purchase to hold that light?
Hi Mindy
I use either this one geni.us/SF2J6JP which is a heavy duty one. Or this one which is a little more affordable if you don’t need a boom -
geni.us/fmvU4N
Hope this helps. Thanks for watching 🤩🙏🏻🎥
Great light!
Уук Кку thanks for the comment! Yeah I still love it every time I switch it on to use. Have you tried one?
Hey Sam. What size Neewer softbox is that?
Hello! Great video. Was wondering, is it just as good with the Godox own softbox?
Hi. Thanks so much 🙏🏻 this was my first proper TH-cam video so I hope it helped. I have lots of videos about softboxes so it might be worth checking those out too 🙏🏻
Thanks for watching 🎥
Is it pure white or slightly off in your opinion?
Great video. I watched it through the end. You got my like and Sub! What size was that lightbox, btw?
Hey! 🤩 Thanks for watching the video and for the sub etc! It’s much appreciated 🙏🏻 the Neewer softbox was the 36” / 90cm version. I now use the Aputure lightdome 2 but am testing out a smaller Neewer this weekend and the lightdome mini 2 also 🤩 Stay tuned for the comparisons. Happy filming 🎥
@@SamHolland Awesome! I'm looking forward to those comparisons. Yesterday I ordered a Godox SL-60W with a 42" Neewer light box. Now, after watching your video, I'm thinking that I overdid with the size of the lightbox 🤔
Woah that is a biggie! BUT it will get super soft shadows which will be nice 👌🏻 if you’ve got the space, why not! Looking forward to watching your videos properly. They look super! 🤩🎥
@@SamHolland Thanks Sam! As long as it fits, I should be able to manage it. Looking forward to filming with some good light!
Let me know what you think to it when it arrives! 🤩
nice video lad! what lights are you using to light up your background in color? :) greetings
Thank you 🙏🏻 I use a combination. I think at this time it would have been the aputure panel lights. Amorans or something and the andycine R1 led light. But my fav is the falconeyes F7 fold. Works with an app and great battery etc. I did a video on it on TH-cam. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻🤩🎥
Could you please share your iso and godox % level around the 11:25 min mark? Ty! Nice review.
Raj Kumar Hey. Thanks for watching! 🙏🏻 I was at around 25% there and the ISO was around 100-200. I was at f/1.8 on the camera. Are you going to get one??
Sam Holland yes I will! Ty again. 🤙
@@RajKumar-gg2ig You're welcome. Let me know how you get on.
love your videos bro so humorous
Thanks so much Mohamed! 🙏🏻🎥
Just ordered the Godox thanks to your review. Regards to Jonesy from Down Under. (There’s only one breed of dog - dachies.) Cheers bra.
Hey! That’s awesome! 🤩 exciting new gear on the way. I hope you enjoy it. Let me know when it arrives and what you think to it. Take care!!! 🙏🏻 and thanks for watching
can you use this for portrait photography?
Hi! Yes you can. I don’t do photography but when I do take photos, I prefer having a continuous light so I can see what the “scene” looks like instead of just using flash lights. Thanks for watching. Hope this helps 🙏🏻
Is the sokani better than this?
Guyanese Joeflirt Hey. I’ve never tried it or seen it to be honest. You’ll have to let me know if you try one 🤩🙏🏻 Thank you for watching.
Good one. U get a thumbs up for this
AllanOboma Thanks Allan! Thanks for watching too. Have you got one of the Godox lights?
You may have figured this out already, but if you open the velcro slot in the side and grab the male bowens mount bit through there while installing modifiers on your light, you'll have a much better time than reaching through the front or phoning a friend.
😂 where were you when I filmed this video?! Haha thanks for watching bro 🙏🏻
Do you reckon this would be enough power for corporate interviews ?
Hey. I think it’s great for that sort of thing but if you want the option of a little extra brightness and you have it in your budget to spend a little more, I’m reviewing the new Godox SL150ii next week. Might be interesting to see what that’s like. Having said that, the SL60w has always been perfect so far. Just a little on the dark side when using higher frame rates
@@SamHolland thanks Sam. I usually use Aputure 300d which give me the ability to set the light back a bit with a softbox because of its output. If this 150 is decent maybe I'll look at that.
Let me know what happens 🤩🎥
How are you stuck on 282 subs dude! God, what a B-Roll intro!!!
Next Thinkerz 😂 Thanks bro! Trying my hardest to grow. Learning every day. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻 you’re doing really well!!! 💪🏻🤩
@@SamHolland trust me, you will be huge in no time! Thanks for checking out the content, appreciate it 😁. Have shifted to regional language based content. Going to buy the Godox SL60T based on your review!
Next Thinkerz Thanks bro that’s very kind! 🙏🏻 Awesome! Let me know how you get on with the Godox! I’m gonna do another video on it soon. All the best my friend
I think the SLB60W version is better, what'ya think?
Tomori Nuel Yeah. I’ve seen them but haven’t tested it yet. Would like to get my hands on it. Have you got it? Thanks for watching. 🤩
@@SamHolland Naa, I don't have it but a friend has. With your review, everything is same except that it has battery attached which the B in SLB 60W stands for ...
@@X1014real AHHH yeah that is very handy! I'm doing an outdoor shoot tonight and it would have been handy rather than taking an extension with us. :) Have a great day!!
Deserves a comment, just to say I loved the video, really helped me, that SOFTBOX IS HUGE, I dont have that kind of space ha ha
What a legend!! 🤩 Thank you 🙏🏻 check out my video on the softbox comparison video. That might have some options for you 🎥👌🏻
is that the 90cm or 120cm soft box?
It’s the 120cm 🎥
what camera and lens did u use? its keep out of focus
This was my first video when I used the Sony a7iii. Now I use Canon
@@SamHolland ty sir, i didnt expect sony a7iii would behave like this, coz i was about to jump to sony, haha...
guess that this changed my mind :D
Yeh I really didn’t like the autofocus BUT the new Sony a7siii is much better apparently. I still love Canon though 🙏🏻🎥👌🏻
