Thanks Josh. Interesting angle. I am looking at lighting a live unamplified concert in a largish public room, probably with a single light to complement existing lighting. What would you use in there do you think? My current choice is a GVM 200w COB, driven principally by the amount of light it produces. With that I could do a ceiling bounce, or go direct with the usual diffusion and honeycomb. But I will have to see how it looks when I get there. This COB light also has the special effects etc. that you mentioned were exclusive to panel lights. I am not sure they are any more. Have things changed recently do you think?
What is the core difference between a $150 LED light panel(like GVM 1200D)and a $5,000 LED light panel(like Arri Skypanel and Gemini)? Why can their prices vary so much? Are they even using the same LED technology?
Hi Josh in your opinion which one has the better 5.9k 10bit video between the Panasonic s1 with firmware update or Panasonic S5 with atmos ninja V. I am torn between the two, your input would be very much appreciated
The 5.9K that's recorded via the Atomos will get the edge over any of the internal codecs from both the S1 and the S5, simply because there is more data being captured and more scope for editing. The S1 can also output RAW via HDMI to the Atomos Ninja V, so whatever camera you use will be able to get that extra quality. If you'd like to shoot 5.9K both internally and externally, then the S1 would be a good fit :)
This feels more like a product placement than a comparison video. You've gone into two differences and the rest was just babbling about the pixel...
Right.
ouch! lol

Great video, keep It up! I've been working with my S5 for almost a year and your videos are always a great help, can't wait to see more!
Thanks for watching, Ivan! Really appreciate it !
For product photography (selling clothes, furniture, toys etc), what would be better? A COB light or led panel light?

Great video as always Josh! How soft is the light on the subject? Would it be good for photography?
Thank you!!!
Great overview - thanks!
Great info but sorry, you talk WAY too fast! i keep having to rewind to take in the info. PLEASE slow down.
Apologies!
