led video light low light
This is probably the best review I’ve seen of these lights! Love seeing them used in actual examples!!
Had those lowlight scenes looking CRISPY!
I have the M9 myself and I love it. Man I have to say, the way you use these little lights is so creative proof that you don't need a whole lot of gear to do awesome stuff
InstaBlaster...
At 2:30 he meant m9, in case anybody is confused
Great video YC! I have the m9 myself. I love it.
Love the M9! I even carry it around my night-time job. Also turns into a conversation piece when people ask me things like, "Hey what's that in your pocket?" and "Oh it's a video light. You do video?"
Examples were proper!! Im going to place with mine more
I liked how you showed the placement of the lights, you should do that more often!
Awesome examples on using these lights. Love it! I have two m9s and I can't wait for the mX to be released. Btw, the X in mX is really roman numeric 10.
Great videos. When you are giving light direction ex. MX on right, is it the right from the camera's perspective, or the right of the subject's perspective?
Would you take the M9 inside a club for video promo??
All this camera gear is gonna ruin me lol! Great video tho
Erim Cicek ditto lol.
Erim Cicek Appreciate it
Well done! I appreciate that you actually showed how the lights could be used creatively.
Why are you not uploading in 4K? At least 1440p?
Why would he deal with the hassle of 4k if he's just vlogging?
Can you use AL-MX while charging?
I've been wanting to add a few smaller lights to my kit, and these look perfect. Great video.
I really wanna check aperture lights here in the UAE, just not sure where to get it?
Hello everyone & Ycimaging is the M9 great to use for concert photos outside of video production. I’m debating on investing in the M9 before the Speedlight May anyone please give me any info or advice PLEASE!
Would these be good for food close up pics? I have a food channel and want great pics for thumbnails and recording
M9 is great! I find myself trying to find new ways of using it just to use it and practice. The MX looks solid!
Yo YC man you really did it this time Doc.... Man you bring so much value to your channel dog. Much love Cat!
Yea, the size etc is great...but just go on Amazon and buy a couple of usb rechargeable battery power banks with LEDs on the back...Ive got 4...they kick out light (adjustable) like you wouldn't believe, are the size of an iPhone, they're power banks so not only can you charge your kit off them but as lights they last for a WHOLE DAY/LONGER before they run out of juice.
Oh yea, and they only cost £20 ha ha.
Dope footage definitely adding some to my kit
I like your positive energy bro. Good informative vid, thank you.
Cảm ơn bạn, tôi đến từ Việt Nam, với những chia sẻ của bạn đã truyền cảm hứng cho tôi về việc dùng các thiết bị.
Can I use the Aputure AL-M9 Amaran for still photography? Mainly for portraits of people. Should I use an on-camera flash instead? I'm not interested in cinematography/video.
0:44 - 0:46 DAT AUTOFOCUS DOE. also, did a video on a useful app for Shotlists using apple watch if anyones interested.
hows the light quality cri? any noticeable differences?
I would just like to say that I LOVE your videos! I’ve learned a lot from you already. Positive vibes!!! I’d love your feedback on the latest production on my channel.
The number of times you said "keep in your camera bag" lol. I have 4 M9's, 1 stopped charging within a week, the others are still going strong 7 months in.
Hey, quick question if I may. What are your recomended settings for Canon 6D Mark II in terms of video? How to obtain the best video image from that body? Thanks.
Looks like a great tool, if you need something cheaper, the gigalumi 228 LED is bi-color and brighter than both, they don’t have built in batteries, but grab s couple of sony npf batteries and your ready to go.
Is it possible to charge the MX while it's on? The internal battery is only 1800mAh, but with the possibility to add a powerbank, we would never have to worry about running out if battery
Hi thanks for the nice review of both the lights. I have a question.... As the Aputure Al Mx is good for the outdoors, is this light good for the indoors/ studio/ room recording as well? Does these lights give a harsh effect on eyes when indoors? Or its soft, coz I guess Mx cant be used with the softbox that makes the light to spread and makes the light softer. So using the MX without the soft box makes the light effects and recording quality better along with softer on eyes?
You got me sold - Just ordered...can't wait to test it out!
So much money for bluetooth, cheap battery and a few LEDs. Uhm, why is this so expensive?
Gonna pick a few of these up. Do you have any recommendations for lighter travel friendly light stands? I have some but they are a bitch to haul around
Thank you for the video! Beautiful examples! Are your shoots graded?
I'm looking for one that will illuminate 15-20 feet in total darkness, maybe just 10 feet out. For like Mini movies/found film footage. Looking at these 2 lights don't give proper specifications on this. The MX doesn't even have reviews on Amazon which is odd? Is there a possibility that you, or anyone that has this could possibly do a night time video with total darkness around them? (Meaning no other light source other than these lights and the LCD screen off the camera) Unless I am putting in wrong keywords?
I've literally been looking at lights all day!
What do you set your white balance to on camera when you have such different temperatures on each light? Do you just balance to one? Or do you set it in the middle somewhere?
Good review and i like so your footages, very cool 👍 i bye one now, thx
Does the Mx have gel accessories?
And can these two lights be mounted onto a camera hotshoe
Dope!! I'm buying one thanks!
Those definitely come in handy. I have something familiar it’s about the size of 5 of those. I’m going to have to go pick up a few of those.
🔥🔥 Nice review. I think I’m getting that MX. What are your thoughts on the LumeCube.
Are those lights better than this one? www.camerastuff.co.za/shop/camera-stuff/video-lights/84529-yongnuo-yn300-air-bi-colour-pro-led-light-with-power-supply.html
Thanks for the super early look at MX!
Damn! Pretty useful lights. Thanks for the examples!
Do you know when the MX will be available? They showed it at a trade show last September. Is there a production problem or something?
Just subscribed. Glad I found your channel. Keep it pushing bro. I never considered these until your review. Tuff! -Bangz
That's at least like a 7 ft distance away from the guy it's crazy it puts out that strong of a light
Man... definitely copping these! Shout out to you man, big inspiration for the music videos I make.
Notification gang!!!
"Christopher Rhdoes"? I think you got your last name spelt wrong there buddy.
Definitely buying that MX when it come out!
Great video, great light. Just un-boxed mine and it is everything you said it was. Along with the CTO & CTB filters was small package of other smaller color gels. Suggestions on how & when to use them. Thanks and keep these videos coming for us forthcoming camera pros ! ! !
Can I mount this light onto my Sony A6300?
Yes.
of course!!
Anyone know of a light in this form factor that does rgb?
This morning I was looking up if you had a video on these lights and literally a few hours later you pushed this out. Awesome video man! I can't want to grab a few of these!
really nice way to show the perfomance of a product !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
what is their instagram? no affiliate links to buy? you slacking brodie lol, jk great video fam /followed
Im waiting for the Aputure MX, wanted to purchase the M9 weeks ago..
But it was missing one feature, changing the temperature without any plastic foil.
Now the MX seems to be a perfect light for me ;)
How do these lights compare to LitraTorch lights...?
The LitraTorch lights are much smaller than these and can produce up to 800 lumen continuous at the highest setting and 2200 lumen for the strobe setting (obviously not useful for photo or video work but excellent for a bike light).
The downside of the LitraTorch is only 3 intensity settings and short battery life at 800 lumen (about 35 mins) but 4 hrs at 100 lumen which is the lowest setting.
Either way...since I do travel a lot...having quality choices like the Aputure and LitraTorch in such a compact form factor is awesome!
Informative information as usual.
I have an M9 and lost the diffuser that comes with it.
They should hire you. Your enthusiasm totally sold me.
- bro always dropping knowledge, thankyou
need that MX when it drops
Holy shit!? Love the content. Instant new sub. 👏🏼
These lights dont have any barn door attachments do they?
Can you light a portable green screen with these?
This is exactly what I have been looking for, Thank you!
Cheers, Pete
So the MX is not out yet. Strange as i did see videos about this one a long time ago. What are the waiting for at Aputure 😀
SOKANI X21is a good one, too. 97 CRI and would sit between these two but for the $45 price of the M9.
These are small light sources without softening.
So, how are they usable without creating super harsh light/shadows?
I learn so much from your channel, you are appreciated.
Hey I just ordered the m9. I would like to know 1 thing. Can I use the light while it's plug into a charging bank ?
Just found your channel, got a new sub man. Great vids!
Hell yeah I have the M9 and im definitely picking up the MX!!! Such amazing lights
Wow....that was mesmerizing.
Just a random question. Do you play For honor? I feel like I came a cross a channel with someone who sounds exactly like you.
Great video. Was looking at getting these lights. The mx may have better build quality and colour adjustable, but I don't think it's worth the 3 - 4 times the price of the m9. Like you said, you can change the colour temp using gels. I'll keep my $150 :) m9 here I come
Yo yc what's up man what's your opinion on aputure amaran 528..i want a 120d but dnt have enough right now i do got 200$ anything good in this price I can use for a small video set?
Bryzoe Films I'm wondering the same thing
Bryzoe Films haven’t used it, I’ll have to see if I can get a unit to test out
YCImaging any good lights u recommend for dat price I can get?
Aputure 528S are great lights! they are small, portable,and have good CRI ratings
Bro love these lights! One question which stands are u using? they look so small I need some for an oversea shooting in Paris!
Paused at 4:35 - That is a very beautifully lit scene. With the video paused with the subject looking off to the left is a very powerful image. I can imagine that character in a film, and that picture truly is worth a thousand words. Very well-lit.
does anyone know if it can be powered via a powerbank or an external battery?
Yes.
Love your channel bro, thanks for always educating us! If there was one thing I'd love to learn from you - it's how you color correct your vids?! Your white balance is always on point or at least the most appealing to me. Got any tips bro? :)
What stands are you using for your lights?
so it is not possible to use gels and filters with mx?
I own a few lights from Aputure. Good stuff. I just go the M9 last week. Killer little light. I'll definitely be getting an MX. I love the size. And the come with nice cases too.
I'm waiting for the MX, they said April release, how did you get one??
Not new but must video - Really great that you explain how you place your lights, very good little tutorial - Thanks & Best
Very useful man. Took me 3-4 videos to finally find one with good examples. Nailed it.
Where can I find light stand for the m9 light???Can u send a link please
Thanks for the Tip! Getting the Mx for 100%
I've been watching you a lot recently and you have some amazing content. Can you make a video of the different kinds of light stands you used and where we can purchase them?
Guess I have to buy this. Thx for the tip!
Very nice video! Thank you.
It seems that Aputure Amaran MX its not on the market yet. I cant find it ;(
Great sample shots! The mx is pretty expensive though...
You’re so likable! Thanks for the video. Helped me loads. Inspired me too!
