      You actually need to have both Sony batteries for the light to be powered. As far as longevity, I'm not exactly sure but at least a few hours.

    • @WesCraft

      You thread a stud into the light and the stud connects to whatever tilting receiver is mounted to your stand. You could certainly thread it right onto the top of stand but you wouldn't have any articulation or movement up there.

      The plate is made by Amaran but I think you're asking what kind of batteries attach? It takes Sony NP style batteries. If you have Atmos monitors you may already own some.

    The intensity of light compared to tungsten light?? Will it be full power in both daylight and yellow light? how many hours of led life ?

    • @WesCraft
      @WesCraft Рік тому

      It's going to have less overall power if you dial it all the way back to 2700K. That said it's still about 60% brightness of the light at 5000K. I'm approximating.

    please, one question
    Amaran 60d or 100d ?
    the differences are only in the power and the mount system ?
    from the Aputure website the price difference is equal to 1$ !
    can you help me ?
    thanks - nice video as usual

    • @Milan-cf1xe
      @Milan-cf1xe 2 роки тому +1

      the difference is that you can mount bigger soft boxes etc. on the 100d. The 60ds mount isnt sturdy enough for that

    • @homesavvytech
      @homesavvytech 2 роки тому

      I have a panel as a key light and plan to pick the 60X or the 100X. As you said the price difference is nothing, but the 100 series have better output but are significantly bigger.

    • @ChevaughnHibbert
      @ChevaughnHibbert 2 роки тому +2

      Still waiting for a good answer to this question. The 100d dosnt have a battery option and that's the biggest hurdle to overcome. Having a small compact size and not be battery compatible kinda makes the lux difference between the 2 not much of a tradeoff for the added flexibility

    OK, so what sort of exposure can you get with a typical set up? Lets say, just as an example, you attached the light dome mini, placed that 3 feet (approx 1m) away from the subject and set the light to 50% and camera to 400ISO, what would your aperture/shutter speed be and how long would a pair of 970's last? That is a real test and gives us an idea of a real world scenario.

    • @conservovirtus5796
      @conservovirtus5796 Рік тому +1

      I have the X. At a distance of about two feet, using a 25'' softbox with double diffusion, I had the light set to 25%. I put a grid on the softbox and had to bump it up to about 45-50%. 1/50, 2.8, ISO 250 & 1/50, 5.0, ISO 800.
