      Thanks Scott, really appreciate the kind words:) And I’d say for the price it’s a great utility light so it’s hard to go wrong! I used mine all the time from product shots to ambient light in my bathroom if I fancy a more relaxing shower haha 😆

    I've already bought two of these, the white versions, plus the Ulanzi tripods. Works really well and are very handy! Thank you for the insightful review! Although I have to mention that what got me liking this video and subscribing to you, are the puns! Not many can pull them off the way you do! Kyahahaha! I'm inspired!

      @@dbvares8745 I’ll be around don’t you worry. Need all the help I can get. Btw the ZOMEI ND filter was that any good as I want to get 58mm to go on the wide angle lens (zv1) or its best to use the nd without the wide angle 52mm? From your other vid on accessories. Or you’ve got a different nd filter now? Or you meant get the 58mm one to go above the wide angle lens?

    • @dbvares8745
      @dbvares8745  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Great question, I actually use the 52mm variable nd I mention on that accessories vid as the first attachment on the zv1 then add the wide angle lens to that. Seems to work fine to me with no image quality issues. Hope that helps and here for Qs as ever 👍

    Greetings from the Colonies. Have subscribed just now, but have not visited channel yet. Hoping to find some basic 101 tutorials and tips on RGB lighting, the reasons for having one, and some hints and tips. Thanx. Really appreciate the work. I know these episodes are hours of labour in the making. Cheers! (yes..... I said 'tips' twice.)

    Just found your channel after my ZV1 arrived today, can't stop watching your videos.
    Quick question, I don't plan on using my ZV1 for vlogging. I plan on using it stationaly talking head videos (similar to yours) except I'll be at my desk.
    Is this light really necessary for that or would it be useful perhaps as a RGB light, to put as a backdrop as opposed to mounting it on top of my camera? Cheers mate!

    • @dbvares8745
      @dbvares8745  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey AM, thanks for the nice comment and great question. No light is strictly ‘necessary’ but it can increase shot quality and give a nicer look. I also wouldn’t necessarily put the light on the camera - there’s a one light lighting tutorial here that shows the difference light placement can achieve: th-cam.com/video/bNFSYdgmhV8/w-d-xo.html
      It will definitely work well as a nice RBG touch too so I don’t think you’ll have much downside from picking one up:)
      Hope that helps!

    • @dbvares8745
      @dbvares8745  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yo HG, just using one in most of my vids as the light on the side of my face. The pinky red colour one in the background is a different rgb light by a company called weeylite - link for it is in the description. You could definitely achieve a similar effect with the Ulanzi though. Hope that helps:)

    Me again, do you have any recommended flash to get? been asked to do some indoor photos night. not sure if zv1 is good enough. as you have both after a flash that would work with vz1 and also a7iii as hopefully my next camera. or you think the above rgb light would be okay for taking photos, club event?

    • @dbvares8745
      @dbvares8745  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey OMT, great to hear from you again:) I’m afraid I’ve never been into flash photography so I can’t help too much on that side.
      Depending on what you’re trying to achieve the Ulanzi could be helpful for photos though (providing some continuous portable light). It’s not insanely powerful for larger environments but I think if you have it near your subjects you could get some cool results - especially if there’s cool smoke and lights around the environment .
      Hope that helps and that you have a great weekend 👍
