Markus you’re killing me… I’ve bought all the lights you recommended and my home floor is starting to look like yours! LOL!! … love the reviews and the quest for the smallest and lightest gear! 👍
That built-in bowens mount adapter is really clever. More lights should have that.
You're one of the only ones that does video comparisons with multiple products at the same time. Thanks for that
Markus, You’re killing it with the videos lately, Thanks!
Thank you for sharing this, I have been looking at continuous lighting that is portable (I have almost bought the well-making several times) but I especially appreciate you including light measurements, so many of other reviews don’t compare well/easily in a consistent and verifiable manner. You including the light readings and discussing the light in terms of stops has been a huge help.
Glad it was helpful!
I have been eyeing those Inkee and GVM lights. Glad to get your input on those.
the 60w bi color inkee was one of the best buys i ever made regarding lights i love them
it took 15 days from watching this, but I finally got my GC30 today and man its really bright!!! thanks for the video!!
👍💥
Those Inkees look amazing. It feels like every few weeks there's an improvement in LED lighting coming along right now.
They've been around for about a year. They're just not a recognised brand.
The first video online that compares the GVM to the Inkee and it looks like the Inkee is really a good one. The only interesting thing about that GVM is the spot modifier. They have a very compact zoomable spot for 100$. I find that very convenient and interesting to have for a light like those. Now I will start thinking again about the GC30.
my favorite so useful light source and video youtube channel!! so Great!!review!!
Happy, that you checked them out. Saw them a while ago, but you know the UA-camrs and their reviews. I trust you more than anyone :) thank you
The engineering of the Inkee's is amazing. So you give a light meter reading and it is appreciated that you give a distance for your measurement but what ISO is your meter set to. That is why in the real world FC or ISO readings are more common across the trades. Check out the Sekonic C-800-U SPECTROMETER to give us some more "in-depth' color balance information such as its direction toward the blue, toward the yellow, or in many cases some other colors. The Sekonic display will add additional content quality for illustration and discussion as well as the graphical element to your video. After all, it's more than just being a talking head as well as you do produce them.
I still want a tour of Cara's closet as her outfits are great and seemingly endless...
As in all my videos, 1/60 sec ISO100. But it's all relative. The point is the brightness difference. Even if the ISO was different, the brightness difference would still be the same.
@@MarkusPix Thank you I must have missed the ISO mention and you don't list it on your graphic insert just the F stop. I have come to appreciate your videos as I watch further. You do put a lot of work into your staging and various production values. I particularly appreciate that you do not record your audio SOF but obviously record it Robert Altman style and it is clear and crisp as opposed to many other UA-camrs that I find myself turning on the CC for English to understand... ha, ha, ha...
Still want to see Cara's closet and glad you do actually read your comments! Brava...
Love the Inkee! I had bought several lights and choose Colbor's RGB as it was what I needed at that time. Going to get the Inkee again, hopefully soon. It's the best concept overall. Once they have an RGB version there really won't be much to compete. Nothing I can think of comes close for it's ease of use and varied applications.
RGB would have been awesome to have as well
I own the 30 and 60 watt version.
I don't think it was mentioned that you can use these in the rain.. maybe I missed that.
Thanks for sharing Markus
another epic video...
Just saved me from wasting my money on the gvm's, going for the inkees, tnx!
@markuspix Thank you so much for doing this video. While I want to buy the Inkee G60 so much people most know that you can't bring the light on any flight due to having a built in battery of more than 100w/h. The GVM and Inkee G30 lights do not have that problem.
it would seem however if youd had a bagged kit of 3 lights you also might not be able to bring those. The burden should be on inkee to get a container that might allow the damn regs to be met as a real option if you are that guy who actually needs them on a plane. News crews are always flying or driving with batteries how do they do it?
@@josephbohme7917 Most airlines also limit the amount of lithium Batteries, up to 3 batteries
Love those Inkee’s so cool 30 watt magical little show maker🎉🎥🔦🦄
woah! built-in bowens mount. They definitely put some thought into that light
Always great and unique content. You give us knowledge a 30 year movie lighting professional would envy. I do love your cartoons on the beginning and end. Your camera operator, who I assume is Cara, is getting to be an expert in her own right.
Yes Cara is becoming quite good at this
Nice video. I picked up the GC 60 here in Japan about a month ago, and am very happy with it. I was actually working on my own review, but sadly something went wrong internally. They have been very helpful and professional in communication though, and minus shipping cost to them it seems the repair is free. Granted being in Japan I am a little lucky in the shipping cost regard. The build quality is very good as you mentioned, though I found a couple minor engineering points I will address in my review when the repair is complete.
Thanks MARCUS ....good information.
next time i order chinese, i'm gona get gold crow!
another excellant video. i did buy some cheap stand lights on your recommendation for my comedy series since much of it is shot in the dark
those flashlight style lights are pretty sweet
Thank you
I'm really enjoying your videos on Lights and batteries. Very helpful before buying. I love all the flashlight style lights because I used to use actual zoomable flashlights but only had 1 reliable flashlight with correct color because others would be wonky color or strobe when on camera. I like the Came-TV fresnels but am considering Inkee now. Thanks for the video!
Cool! Will check it out here in the Philippines.
I'm glad you liked my suggestion, I thought you would be happy with it.
Somebody said TSA doesn't allow them in carry ons. Do you now anything about this?
@@MarkusPix Due to the luggage limits I usually only carry the most essential equipment, I'm sorry not to be of help in this case, as I have no experience of attempting to carry any LED lighting. I guess if there are restrictions it may be due to the size of the battery. I don't know the actual capacity.
Oh know I can’t watch any more of your videos, just when I think i have ever light, you brake out with another one. lol
Nice thanks for this great....
TY.
nice flashlights for video
Thanks for the in depth thoughts on flashlights
Hey Marcus. I have bought the GC30 based on your review and I love it. The autonomy and power you can get from such a convenient form factor is insane!
I do have a question: the market is currently flooded by compact lights (GC30, Zhiyun G60, X60, CX100, Colbor W100, Sirui C150X...) and they usually comes with a mini reflector. These "mini" reflectors have the same 3.5 inches diameters at the largest point wich is exactly half of the standard 7 inches reflector. It kind of make sense and seems like 3.5 inches would be the the standard diameter for mini reflector. Nevertheless, for some reason, I can't find one single soft diffuseur (your know, that small piece of white fabric with an elastic band around) of 3.5 inches to fit any of these reflector. We can find thousand of 7 inches diffusers on the market but not a single 35 inches version. Do you know why?
Thanks
i got this as well.. i am testing the inkee GC 60w vs the zhiyun molus 100 and reflex s
I have Retlight 3000K torch since 2014. It is a nice little helper if you know how properly use it. Even 2w led light of your Godox speedlight could be a main light source after sunsets or for close-ups.
The main reason I would need some extra power from the led lights - softboxes & unbrellas , where all of this readings, from the center of the hotspot, will have nothing to do with reality.
The center hotspot is the only part I use for what I do (vlogging)
Marcus rock!!!
Thank You. This light is great, i buy 3 60w light for Wedding. First light and fresnel just arived, i test and is very good. What Gobo Projector recommended for this lampa? I want to sell all my Nanlite 60bii setup and Gobo. Thanks.
Hey by the way Ulanzi just made this flash light and I just got it I actually like it a lot it’s not powerful but it does the job
ua-cam.com/video/b9aq5z4exFA/v-deo.html
I have a feeling you would love this
Morning sir
Dear Sir Markus,
You should know this! "Inky" is an old generic name for a small (3" or smsller) tungsten, fresnel, accent, production light. So blame us for the funny name... Luv yer vids...tootles.
Oh, and you forgot to mention that some Inkees are water resistant!
"Very cool, Kanye"
Absolutly great review and information! Thank you!!!! BTW - do the inkies have an AC adapter?
Any USB-C adapter will work with the right wattage
@@MarkusPix Thank you for the fast reply and info.
That RFT-19 reflector only makes a hotspot in the middle. With a steep falloff it's not magic at all. It's hard to say what modifier it replaces, maybe it's a good light to put a diffusion cap on since it's quite sizeable in comparison to the stock reflector on Inkee. The pattern of the little reflector looks more workable.
And that 150% brightess is just their take on 11/10 joke, haha. I think I'm going to look for some practical tests on this. The thing with built in batteries is that once a battery goes bad, you're in trouble, so it better have good cells in it. Also I hope that charging is fast enough to keep it going and not just 2-3hrs and you need to take a break.
I never need anything beyond the hotspot because all I ever need these lights for is for vlogging (lighting up my upper body) I never try to light up a whole room with something small like this. I need small travel lights for vlogging. As for batteries, my Stellas have built in batteries and they've worked flawlessly for over a decade.
Looking forware to the Tube lights. ive got a couple Ulanzi LED tubes and i love em
You should try the Ulanzi LT028 40W. Little bi-color light with just 40W, but integrated battery and lasts 60-75min. on 100% power and costs $90. I don't love it, but am happy with the size/power ratio and also supports charging during use... Try it, maybe you will find a use for it in your huge collection of portable lights :D
For 40w I much prefer the Zhiyun Fiveray M40. MUCH more portable, I can fit 5 of them in the same space as one Ulanzi and they are BRIGHT!
The bowens adapter doesn't seem very efficient because of the gap. It's not a solid backing.
10:15 thanks you for this 😸😸
Followed the link and SUPRISE🎉🎉🎉🎉 not sold out.
Do the extra little tabs on the fresnel lens work in a standard size bowens mount?
GC30 does look like a nice compromise of size weight and brightness.
btw, where did you get those barn doors? I'm looking for a low cost solution for my church.
They came with the fresnel www.aliexpress.us/item/3256806428793245.html?gatewayAdapt=glo2usa4itemAdapt

Hi Marcus, danke für die hervorragenden Videos, die du immer mit deiner tollen Cara erstellst.
Ich habe auch den 30er Inkee und hier ein kleiner Hinweis von mir den du in Deinem Video nicht erwähnt hast. Du kannst die Colortemp verändern. Halte den Ring für einen Moment in der Halbposition nach rechts, dann kannst du die Kelvin von 2700-6500 einstellen. Machst du das nach links, kannst du Szenarios einstellen. Liebe Grüße von der Ostsee aus Lübeck, MJ
You can change the color temperature on the inkees... 🙂
yes they are bicolor
Inkee is great but you cannot take it on a plane..it has "airplane mode" but TSA stopped me and I had to take it home...VERY good light if you dont travel. They gave me paperwork to show TSA but it didnt work. I went to a TSA supervisor and he stated it cant go on a plane at all..you can also Charge it while you are using it..I used it at an event that didnt have light at all and it worked GREAT. Suggest to Inkee that they put a physical lock on the wheel because it can accidentally come on if in a bag..also Suggested a LED protector like most LED lights have because if you pack it in a bag you have to have the reflector on to protect the LED and it makes it longer and harder to pack
Why did they not allow it? I've never had a problem
Hi Markus ! I love ALL your videos ! You get right to the point on all your videos ! Do you know how much money you save people by doing the research for us ?!
This is the first time I've written you because I have a little delimma. I bought a Inkee light about a month ago and it originally went to 150% ... then it would only go to 100%.
Today it went out all together and will not charge AT ALL ! Thankfully, Amazon will give me a refund. Have you heard of any problems like this I'm describing ? I loved the light ...
but I don't know if I should order another one. What would you advise ! Let me know ! Frank 😊
Never had that problem. It will not charge unless you have a strong enough charger (65-100w) **AND** a 100w USB-C cable. You can't just use any USB-C cable, it needs to have the high wattage rating. To get the 150, you have to turn it extra fast to the right after its at 100 and I think it needs to be fully charged.
@@MarkusPix Thank you for replying. I charge the light with the charger and cable that was supplied with it and charge it from a wall outlet. Maybe I got a lemon !
I'll get another one and try it again ! Thanks again ! I really like your videos !!!!
hey Markus , have a photoshoot for indoors and outdoors I have an inkee 60. do you think this would work for exposing for sun and high shutter? thanks - I will be trying but was curious from the light pro
Yes
king
What type of mount is on the included 3 1/2” reflector if anyone knows?
This does look interesting - I do have 2 x wellmaking 40W but i wonder if these Inkee 30W seem brighter - also im considering the new Ulanzi mini 40W lights but they cant fit bowens stuff and these are £89 compared to the Inkee 30w at £118 - wonder if you or your viewers might have any thoughts on these!?
My Wellmakings are 80w and the 30w Inkee is similar with the standard reflector. Definitely brighter than the 40w WM and Ulanzi
Awesome appreciate the feedback
inkee in Chinese means "shadow gears". They don’t sell much in China domestic market.
I love them!
WHEN GETTING
EQUIPMENT AND
ACCESSORIES
DO YOU MOSTLY ORDER FROM
A PARTICULAR SITE
OR MANY TO WINDOW SHOP ONLINE?
OR IS THERE AN ACTUAL STORE THAT
OFFERS A VARIETY
WHERE YOU SHOP?
Thanks Marcus
If in New York City, although Adorama is easier to deal with and you should also visit, B & H has a large display of not only lighting equipment but also cameras and electronics.
Mostly Amazon, AliExpress and B&H
@Markuspix what do you think about using the inkee with a large soft box, like the light storm or one from another company, do you think it would output enough for a regular 3 point light setup for interviews?
ua-cam.com/video/Q5TOvF3I98M/v-deo.html works great
@@MarkusPix How did I miss this video hahah ok well thanks !
@Marcus ...what kind of external power source or battery can be used by Inkee 30w. Can u make a video for it?
Any USB-C power bank or adapter, I suggest 45w or higher
@@MarkusPix thanks for ur lightning fast answer.
I didn't see anywhere that the Inkee lights have an app, which is a deal-breaker for me. Can you confirm?
www.in-kee.com/en/gold-crow-app-download/
Inkee wins
Have you ever tried Hobolite?
Cute design but not for me
How do the Inkees compare to Smallrig?
What Smallrig? The 60w? The 30w Inkee is the same brightness and the 60w Inkee is one stop brighter. And the batteries last a LOT longer
@@MarkusPix Thanks for replying. Same brightness on 100%
The 30 is sold out 😢
Whaaat? Already?
Impressive !
