On Amazon you can pick up this light for $798 USD but if you are an Amazon prime member you can get another $100 off! Making this light $698 USD 🙌 amzn.to/3z3hSVj
Thank you for your honest review! I'd like to add one more note regarding the weather sealing. While the GVM SD650B Pro isn't IP-rated, it is raindrop proof, so a few water drops are unlikely to cause harm. You can confidently use it outdoors😉
Just came off a two day shoot using this light as a main source and its powerful! We used it outside which meant competing with the sun and it held up way better than expected. We had to bounce some light to provide extra fill, but this thing is amazing for the price. Definitely recommend this one!
To get harder shadows of raindrops you needed a harder (smaller source). Its not intuitive, but usung the fresnel was probably working against you in this instance. You would hqve been better off bare bulb. Spitting the fresnel likely also just made things worse. Other than using thr bare spirce you could have moved the light dirther back. Thebideal thing to ude wouls be a spotlight mount from much further away.
So the Aputure LS-600D has an output of 98,500 Lux at 3.3’ w/reflector and the GVM SD650B Pro has an output of 116,000 Lux at 3.3’ w/reflector That is just measurements directly from their websites. Wether or not that is accurate is the real question
@@BenGleasonMedia Thank you. I know that the particular refelctor does have an impact. Would be great if one day we could see them in the same softbox, for example. Thanks again.
@gasakenny7996 Oh shoot! You’re right, it does not have a G/M shift! I have no idea how I missed that! I guess I just assumed it had it since it was bi color. But no I did not cover that in the video.
@@BenGleasonMediano worries. I think the 600x also doesn’t offer magenta/green control. It’s not a deal breaker, but over time when the led starts shifting this would have given it much longer time. But hey I’ve ordered one, I’ve known for weeks that it didn’t have it. I was just hopeful I was wrong 🤣 The 300c which I have has it and so will the 1200c also.

Any links to the safety cables? In the description maybe? Thnak you for sharing your experience.

@@BenGleasonMedia Thx much

That’s awesome! Thanks for the insight, I’ll have to try the bare bulb on my next project!
Came here to say just that. Hard shadows come from point sources. Point sources come from far lights pin spots, or very large fresnels at a distance.
I planned gvm 650b,300c, yu 300, 80d lamps can i buy or not and i heard lux is low is this true ???. Some videos show it failing at lux.
Is it has super megenta shift and less lux??? True???
How bright is is compared to an Aputure 600d? Usually, bi-color lights have a lower output at MOST color temperatures than a daylight-only light.
So the Aputure LS-600D has an output of 98,500 Lux at 3.3’ w/reflector and the GVM SD650B Pro has an output of 116,000 Lux at 3.3’ w/reflector

Does this do a green magenta shift
EDIT: It does NOT have a G/M adjustment.
@@BenGleasonMediaare you sure about that mate? I don’t see it anywhere on the manual or their website. Did you cover that in this video?

The 300c which I have has it and so will the 1200c also.
