I've seen many reviews of these lights but this by far is the best. The gentleman breaks it all down in sequence perfectly. Made my mind up regarding my purchase and my advice to the gentleman....go to Law School. Your presentation is spot on.
Very happy to help out! Thanks a bunch for the praise as well.
Amazing review, answered every question I had.
Really great review exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!
Bro u explain this much better and show compassion better that the others u need more credit
Thanks, I'm really hoping to grow the channel
You sold me. Lol. I'm a year late into this video, but I also am starting to look up about getting better lighting.
I currently own the Logitech Litra Glow and thinking to look into the Elgato Key Light system they have and was looking to compare the both Key Light & Key Light Air.
These are different times, but their prices for each products is significantly lower than time of this video. $116 and $181 respectively on Amazon.
Now I'm looking forward to purchasing 2 Key Light Air. Only con I see is the no desk clamp on which the base would take up space on my desk of 38"
Thanks for the comparison!
This is the best review out there. So clear, informative, and easy to understand. I love how you show the different webcams, too. Excellent!
Really neat idea to do this specific content for the video. Very much appreciated
Thank you
I couldn’t find a good review comparing the 2 lights and your review helped me a lot. You even answered all my questions concerning them. Very thorough and thoughtful review.
Liked and subscribed
Best review out there
thanks so much!
Love your work. And this is 4 years ago!
This is EXACTLY the review I needed - thank you for this! I super appreciate all that b-roll lighting footage, it was probably a pain but it was so helpful lol
Thanks for showing us the light.
Best review I've seen on these lights! you are very underrated. Keep it up you will hit 100K in no time.
Excellent review! Answered all my questions and some I didn't think of :-)
THIS IS THE BEST REVIEW EVER ON THESE LIGHTS... THANK YOU SOO MUCH!
I LOVED this video! Best review I have came across and you actually showed yourself with the lights in front of you! Thank you so much!!! :)
Great review! Thanks for the infos. ✌🏻
Thanks for a very comprehensive review, super helpful. Tip for you on the color temperature mismatching you mentioned. Match the lamp to the color temp of of the other source. In this case the sun. Then you can adjust the color temperature whatever you want in either camera or software.
Excellent review and comparison. The best I’ve seen so far. Thanks!
Thanks for another great review. Your articulacy and enthusiasm are slightly spoilt by the room echo. Try experimenting with some wall mounted sound damping for sound quality to match your excellent video quality. 😉
Thanks for this video! It's a much better review than the others i have watched.
Thanks for the video, very thorough without dragging on.
Excellent review sir. Pre-emptively answers lots of practical questions.
Great video and t-shirt.
Was looking for a good review of lights because I just started using a green screen. It was working fine with outside lighting plus room lighting, but as the sun went down it started to mess up since the only light in the room was from a ceiling fan. I'm going to to buy two key light airs and put behind each of my side monitors. Great review!
Nice review! Definitely focused on the main thing that most people are interested in.
This was damn helpful in my decision between which key light was worth the money and why.
I like your quite detailed review. I currently only have one Air, but thanks to your review I've come to the conclusion that I need two Air or two Key Lights for my Elgato green screen and should arrange them at an angle.
By the way, I think you look cuter when you wear your hair down.
My man! INSANE value in this video. Thank you!
Wow! Excellent review. The level of detail was informative. Thanks a lot good sir!
You're welcome, thank you for checking it out
Great video - my one Keylight I haven't really had to adjust it more than 30% - otherwise I can't see haha I think the Keylight air if I get another one would be great. You're cons are spot with the plug and the first time set up. Keep growing!
This may be the best comparison on these lights! Way to include the details about using two lights. Do you think the base and upright stem on the Air could support a Manfrotto Super Clamp and friction arm with my camera, about 7 pounds altogether? Keep up the great work!!
Thank you! I'm not quite sure on that. I've seen UA-camrs like Epos Vox connect their Air and camera together but I haven't tested putting anything on the base besides the light. He has all the Elgato lights and talks a lot about different mounting options so if you ask him I'm sure he can give you a definitive answer.
Great review! Thanks. Pls keep doing review videos
I have a question. When I stream games with chromakey my background image isn’t perfect. But when I stream internet browser, my image background with chroma key is perfect. Any idea why?
Thank you. And yes, I have a hunch because something similar happened to me. When I stream desktop capture from Chrome for instance there's often lot of blue light coming from the computer monitor. That itself might change the lighting and in my case, OBS actually ended up keying out my face partially because of the blue reflecting on it. What I did is slightly tweak the "Similarity" and "Key Color Spill Reduction" settings in OBS until it was just right.
When I switch to games, occasionally I have to move the sliders back. One other thing is when gaming in bright green, grassy area (like wild grass in Pokémon). The green light reflecting on my face sometimes causes issues so I have to tweak the settings. Hopefully this helps or at least gives some ideas as to what might be happening!
Fantastic review. Thanks for this.
great video brother!
Thanks for watching it!
Thank you, this is what i needed to make a decision! 😎
Great review man, nice tests as well. Thanks dawg!
You're welcome, thanks for watching!
boom. epic review, super helpful thanks mate
Holy shit this review was godlike man, appreciate the info! I'm gonna go pick one up today. Thanks!
Picked up my air just now! Thanks for the help!
For sure, no problem
@@BadIntentStreamTechReviews Keep up the work man, I can't wait to see what you do in the future!
AWESOME REVIEW, THANK YOU SO MUCH.
Dude!! This review is awesome! Been checking others, you really do a good job of explaining. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I keep however wondering whats missing in your videos, knowing that the quality is top...and I finally found out. Its the sound! I dunno which mic youre using, but i hear slight echo from the room. Have you thought about getting a mic? If so.. which one? And will you review it if you do?
😄
Thanks, and yeah in September I bought and reviewed a few mics such as the Blue Yeti, Fifine K669B, and Razer Seiren Mini. My favorite of those 3 is the Seiren Mini. I would review my Blue Raspberry I got from an acquaintance, but it's out of production now.
Great review!
excellent info - thanks
So useful. Thank-you!
Great review! These are a pass for me since my Nanoleafs do the job just fine lol. But had to sub, looking forward to more videos
Thank you very much for an excellent review.
I am thinking about buying 3 Elgato Key Light Airs (for left, center, right,) instead 2 Elgato Key Lights. Why? Because, although I would have only 4200 lumens (instead of 5600 lumens), for the same amount, I would have the chance to regulate the light in even 3 (three) different ways. Each guy its own.
Best regards from Frankfurt am Main, Germany.
Greets from Frankfurt am Main, Carlos!!
Thanks bro, appreciate it.
This was exactly the kind of review I was looking for. Thank you. The Chroma Key comparison was clutch. Does the Key Light Air work with the Elgato mounting system? I just don't have any room on my desk for lights on a stand.
Glad to help. I don't have the Elgato Multi Mount myself, but the product page says it is compatible. Here's an image of it attached on their Twitter: twitter.com/elgatogaming/status/1247931628514656262?s=19
@@BadIntentStreamTechReviews thank you!
This guy knows his stuff. Sub from me
Great review, I would even say the best review. Question, Do you think you could adjust the lighting of the Elgato Air Lights w the Mobile SLOBS App? It’s Pretty Much a Free Stream Deck.
Thanks. I'm not sure on that one. I haven't actually tried using that app myself (I use normal OBS). If it can access the Elgato Control Center desktop app, then maybe but I can't say for sure.
Thank you for the review, it’s very very good. I have a question; would you recommend having a full key light as the main and a light key light as a support light?
In my experience just two Key Light Airs has been enough. But one benefit to using one Key Light and one Key Light Air is the Key Light has a bigger panel so it can brighten more of the room if you need that.
But in general just two Key Light Airs should be good.
@@BadIntentStreamTechReviews thank you so much for responding
Very helpful , I have a question, so you have to have cell phone to adjust light , no dial?
sorry for the late reply. yes, you have to use an app. There's actually a PC app too, but no physical dial.
BadIntent Stream Tech Reviews thank you
What do you think about getting 1 of each? I Key Light Air and 1 Key Light?
Great video, also look into getting a cheap DSLR or mirrorless camera. The brio is trash
Thanks. I personally like the Brio, but I do intend to get a Canon M50 in the future.
@@BadIntentStreamTechReviews Oh nice, keep the great content coming!
Is the key light air set to the lowest brigttness noticeably less bright than the larger keykight at the lowest brightness? I have two of the larger keylights and I wish I could lower the brightness further..
Yeah at the lowest, the Key Light Air is super dim. Elgato has a new even dimmer light though, the Key Light Mini that you might be interested in.
Do you think 1x Key Light AIR + 1 reflector disc will be sufficient?
I don't have a reflector disc to say for sure, but did some tests bouncing some light off a white wall for someone else. I think the Key Light is the only Elgato light bright enough and with a wide enough panel to really work in that scenario. So short answer is probably not, but I'll link you this short video anyway in case it helps. ua-cam.com/video/EmtGY8wheJk/v-deo.html
Good job
i appreciate it!
Thank you very much for the video!
Could you advise me? I use Elgato's Chroma for my videos on UA-cam.
I found your video looking for the answer to buy 2 "airs" instead of 1 Key light.
Have you tried using the 2 x Key Light Air with chroma? It's what really worries me.
Thank you very much friend
You're welcome. And yes, my main setup is with 2 Key Light Airs and the Elgato Green Screen MT. It works with the chroma key very well for me even when it's pitch black. Here's an example video I recorded on my gaming channel: ua-cam.com/video/sFVysWoRBUE/v-deo.html
@@BadIntentStreamTechReviews Thank you very much again!
Thank you for being the only person who really offers a quality review, with different scenarios, times of the day, and what really matters, what I was looking for ... 2 x Air vs Key Light
Good luck friend!
No problem, glad to help out!
@@BadIntentStreamTechReviews hello again friend,
I already have the 2 key light air, but I don't know how to position them to avoid shadows, especially the shadow of my nose.
Would you know how to avoid the maximum number of shadows?
Thank you!
I have mine about arms length away and at a 30 degree angle so the light is pretty even. There's a few other factors like how high the lights are compared to your face, but that got rid of the shadows for me.
I bought the Elgato air, and I have a problem with my Quadcast, Wifi Interference... Have you too?
The HyperX mic? I've used all the Elgato lights together with the QuadCast plugged in but haven't had interference myself. But I do have issues with the phone app disconnecting..
Matching the current daylight color isn’t a good idea. No matter how perfect you match the color to daylight, over time it won’t match up anymore. I highly recommend to block out the daylight as much as possible.
Yeah, if you're doing professional work in a studio where you have a ton of light (way more than these provide), then eliminating all daylight is ideal.
But for home use with just these lights, matching to daylight is still a great option versus not being able to at all. As the temperature adjusts, you can change the lights with it.
Would you still buy these in 2023?
With Elgato's newer products and new pricing, I'd get the Key Light and the Ring Light (which I still use to this day), but not the Air.
Good
