RaLenoLED Video Light, 192 LEDS Panel Camera Light with LCD Display Built-in Batteries Dimmable 3200-5600K Bi-color and Brightness CRI 95+ lighting for Video Recording Studio YouTube Photography

Not had the chance to use it in the field yet, but it's well constructed, light weight and has a great light output and desperation, if it works as good as its smaller version which I'm sure it will, 100%

The media could not be loaded. This is fantastic. It's at a price point where it's worth taking a gamble as someone who's relatively new to getting into video and streaming. In particular, with the mounting options I thought this would be great for assisting in recording time lapse videos for me. The ability to set a colour temperature is perfect because I like a nice strong-but-even daylight colour and the variability gives me the control to balance against the various ambient lighting I have in different locations, and perfectly tune the lighting based on the time of day I'm doing the recording. I'm usually very fussy with colour temperature and this flexibility was very welcome. I've been using this with an articulated arm that I also bought from amazon. The light itself comes with a connector based around the standard 1/4" threaded screw that you'll find on most DSLR level camera equipment. The supplied fixing is also actually compatible with the go-pro style interlocking-fingers style connector too, whilst also including a standard hot-shoe mount, so it's very versatile. With the colour is really easily to balance in post with the high CRI of the lamps, and I feel like there might even be some fresnel layers in the lamp assembly because of how well blended the illumination is.You might wonder why I've included a photo of a load of sink pipework on my reviews - let me explain - although this light kit is clearly intended for photo/media use I also realised that the qualities that make it a great piece of photography kit make it amazing for DIY! The punchy, evenly dispersed flood fill of light, combined with the built in battery, and the fantastic colour rendering index meant that when I had to fix a leak under our kitchen sink (ended up replacing the tap) it was the simply the best thing I've ever tried for lighting the tight space under the sink. Even though I had my head between the light source and the taps the light was still very even and was plenty bright enough to see perfectly. Normally I'd have used a torch here, but flashlights are so directional you end up with shadows from all the pipes but this was so good at flooding the whole space the shadows were drastically reduced which made it so much easier to see what was going on. The photo speaks a thousand words. Even though it's not intended for DIY it's simply fantastic, and the battery lasted plenty long enough for the whole old tap decommission, removal and installation of the new taps. Next time you're in a tight space give it a try, I was pleasantly surprised!

The controls are very simply to use, an on off switch, and two dials for colour temperature and brightness. The display tells you the temperature and brightness as they are adjusted. The built in battery makes it very convenient to use, no need to trail wires everywhere which can get into shots. There only nitpick I have is it's not as bright as the more expensive lights.

I’ve recently purchased the Raleno soft box which was great for studio/fixed location use, but I needed a really portable video light to use on the many occasions where light isn’t sufficient.I’ve decided to give the Raleno PLV-S192 a go, and here’s what I found.The packaging is simple and effective, protecting the light quite well along with the hot shoe mount and charger/power cord. It also brings a little manual which can be handy.With the Raleno PLV-S192, they have certainly listened to users of this type of light and created a very compelling proposition.The light is very bright - without any significant colour tinge at 4200K, going from 3200K to 5600K.The brightness can be adjusted “stepless”, so I can choose exactly the brightness required.The size of the unit is fairly good, big as to provide enough light but still small so it fulfils its mission - being portable.Having 2 li-ion build in batteries is, for me, is a great plus. I really want to limit the amount of stuff I need to carry.The batteries will last around 3 hours on full brightness, which is great!It has a quite large (2 inches) screen at the back allowing you see quickly the brightness, colour temperature and a battery level indicator. On the side, there are the 2 knobs (to adjust temp and brightness) and on/off switch.The light itself is soft and flattering - you’ll not see the individual LEDs (as the name states, 192 of them!) on any brightness level and while soft, it will easily provide a good amount of light up to 20-30 feet away. Adjusting the colour temperature to the warmer settings allows me to use it for indoor filming in circunstances where I want to keep the warmth of tungsten/candle light in the scene.The unit itself is solidly built. It really doesn’t feel like anything will fall or break apart and having the hot shoe adaptor and power cord for continuous use ticks all my boxes.While I use for general purpose and it works great, I can see this would be absolutely perfect for product shots/videos - that’s all you’d need.Also, personally I prefer continuous light for photography as well, personally I feel it gives more control, so I’m also using this for photography both with and without the support of larger Raleno soft box.All in all, this is a great product at a very reasonable price and Im really happy with with it.thoroughly recommended!
