Reddit reviews VILTROX L116T CRI95+ Super Slim Dimmable LED Light Panel,Bi-Color 3300K-5600K LED Video Light with LCD Control/Light Mount

Viltrox L116T

Well I wanted a Manker E03H Nichia but they're not on amazon anymore. :( So I'll take one of the Viltrox panels instead; I know people that do videography and such.

There’s a chance that a 4x 18650 light like a BLF Q8 would have enough power, but that’s a hell of a runtime. It also may leave weird beam artifacts on the target (unless pure flooders or miles, flashlights don’t generally illuminate very evenly at short distances.) I don’t know how you’re transporting it, and you might want to prop a piece of steel in front of it, but I’d go for a deep-cycle 12v lead-acid battery with an LED light coupled to it. Depending on how close you can get to the target, a Viltrox panel light would illuminate it beautifully.

Get some fill light dog.

Thanks parametrek!

I had a large ring light that even at low settings just gave me headaches and got me tired fast. I had it angled as best I could but it was so large I couldn't do a lot. I tried diffusing it when it was facing me and it still happened. I moved it so it was bouncing off the wall instead of facing me.

I actually replaced it with this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01KZLM3QC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s01 (you need a power adapter too) and this is in the same spot as the ring light was (behind my monitor because I have no other room) but hasn't hurt my eyes. I don't know if it's just angled in a better way but it's significantly smaller even though the light is still as bright as far as I can tell.

Actually yes that can work quite well. But the key is being fairly close to the subject, as well as not moving the camera too much because that can change the lighting.

I use a cheap Viltrox L116T and it seems to work well for the price and it runs on standard sony batteries. The light just mounts on the hotshoe.

Oh I found it! And the price dropped a lot! Here:

PS - Does NOT come with a AC power cord. You need to buy that separate.

Great shot!! Product photography is 80% lighting. A few basic tricks if you dont want to invest too much:

1- A basic reflector kit (silver, gold, diffusor) will set you back about 30$ and can really help up your photography game. Alternatively, a 2x3 piece of glossy carboard, set like a dome over your watch, can act as a ghetto reflector and give you very nice results.

2- A LED panel such as this one lets you adjust both the intensity and the warmth of the light, which comes in handy when you want to match it with a secondary source of light.

3- You probably already know this, but RAW + Lightroom are your best friends if you’re shooting with a DSLR

Any other nice light panel would be cool too if the price changes or this goes OOS.

I've seen Adam Savages video using one of these lights. My dad would love this for our workbench.

I love that you have light panels also

Without a doubt, I’d do something awesome with this Viltrox panel.

I agree with your strategy. Spread the fun around!

I, for one, have not yet tried anything comparable to the Viltrox L116T panel

Thank you, as always!

Thank you for doing all these! Love the more frequent/lower priced giveaways. I really don't need a $100 flashlight anyways...

Thanks for the giveaway!

and the viltrox l116t for me: https://www.amazon.com/Viltrox-L116T/dp/B01KZLM3QC/?tag=parametrek-20

Does anyone mind if I jump on the bandwagon?


Thank you, Para!

Thanks!

Here's my setup. Looks like this. My lights are mounted using a 1/4"-20 camera gooseneck mount with a thread pattern that some microphone boom arms also use:

• VILTROX L116T RA CRI95 Super Slim LED Light Panel
  
• ISEEUSEE 12V DC 5A Security Camera Power Adapter with 8-Way Power Splitter
  
• 5.5mm x 2.1mm Extension Cord, DC 12v
  
• SB300 Softbox Diffuser
  
• 13.3" Clamp Gooseneck Mount Camera Jaws Stand
  
  If your mic boom uses a 5/8"-27 pattern, then you might need this adapter:
  
  
• Thread Adapter 5/8"-27 Female to 1/4"-20 Male

Hmm. I don't want to buy button-tops just to jump on the Sofirn bandwagon. So I guess it'd have to be a Zebralight SC53c (eww, XP-L2) Viltrox.
