      @@BasicFilmmaker Well, to add a little diversity here: there's something wrong with reviewing this (sent by the manufacturer for favorable review) and not mentioning/comparing with the better option, the product it's actually derivative of, the Pilotfly ATOMCUBE RX1. I know you'd feel a sense of responsibility to the overseas supplier, but the only value of video reviews on UA-cam for a mass audience is contextualization as to options for purchase and use, which requires comparison. Everything else is an advertisement (and a bargain for the manufacturer, instead of paying for placement the traditional way)...

    • @BasicFilmmaker
      @BasicFilmmaker  5 років тому +1

      Actually, didn't know about the PilotFly. As far as the manufacturer(s), I make sure they agree that a.) If they try and sway my opinion in any way, I will immediately refuse to review and return the product. They send it and get no say in the matter, and trust me, I don't need more stuff. It's way easier to make the money and buy something rather than spend a lot of my time reviewing something that costs $139. Possibly not everyone is like that, but that's the rules I play by. Thanks!

    All that for $149 bucks?! Wow! When I watching your video, I was thinking this was going to cost around $500 -$600 bucks. This blows away all my other lights that I paid way more for. Thanks for the find, Kevin!

    Thanks Kevin. You’ve made me want to spend more money now and I’m a pauper pensioner!! Especially as the build is alioominium. My favourite word. I’ve just returned from Menorca and took a mini light with me. It’s surprising how useful they can be in ‘quick shot’ scenarios on the move but it also showed me just how important the light softening is with almost like a ‘point’ source. That one looks great.

    Just checked the price on Amazon (UK) and at the time of writing it's £149. That's pretty good for such a well built, compact, quality light. Yet another item added to my wishlist.

    Excited that you can magnetically join two of these to make a bigger one if needed. It'd be a very flexible kit of 3.

  • @GBatB
    @GBatB 5 років тому +1

    Thanks, Kevin. That’s a really interesting light, especially the magnet and the different scenario options. Out of interest, have you ever posted a tutorial on using an onboard light successfully? I normally set up lights on stands when doing a full shoot, but there are occasions when it’s run and gun where I plop on an onboard light to do an external interview. But, it’s my weakness. However much I angle/ adjust the onboard light, the subjects often complain about being blinded and distracted...

    • @BasicFilmmaker
      @BasicFilmmaker  5 років тому +2

      Haven't done an onboard light video. I'm with you, I really don't like them for videos, and the people who I am doing interviews with don't like them either.
