Esta luz tiene un diseño increíble y lo mejor es lo bien que ilumina.Es muy resistente y amo que puedan cambiar los ángulos de la luz.Me falta aprender a usar el control.

Only real complaint is that the color temps displayed on the unit are about 100 kelvin off and number increase to about 200 kelvin off the closer you get to the top end of the color spectrum.Case and handheld remote are a fantastic inclusion and make the unit a lot more useful. More than bright enough at 50% power to do a YouTube video at 6’ (2m) away and as a single light source.Built in diffuser screen does a very good job at diffusion.

This is a weighty light with a solid metal frame and clean, simple lines, so you can use it in your home or office, not just in the studio. The diameter of the disk is 46cm, the lit circle is 41cm; it's large enough to act as a soft fill light for vlogging, and to not blind you when you have it in your field of vision (at least if you don't turn it all the way up).The LEDs are built into the frame, the lit area looks uniform. I think this is a good alternative to the Elgato key light; the main reason why I did not get the Elgato is that it depends on Wifi and has no manual controls; I cannot have my light fail me during a video recording because of losing network connectivity. This light comes with both a remote and manual controls on the lamp itself. It also remembers its state when you turn it off.The lamp is 70W at its max setting. For my purposes, that's mostly too much; even at the lowest setting, it's pretty bright.You will need to buy a stand for this light; I've got the Neewer desk clamp, which works quite well.Here is a list of minor criticisms:- The cord it not integrated into the stand but hangs down freely, and the cable between the power brick and the lamp is rather short, so the brick will hang in the air.- The lamp is mostly metal, but the, back, the switch box and tightening knobs are black plastic. It's ok for a work light and really not bad or flimsy industrial design, but it could have a slightly cleaner look for using it at home.- Instead of two potentiometers for brightness and color temperature, this lamp has only one, and buttons to switch the mode. Two control knobs would have been better.- The darkest setting is still very bright, and the change in brightness when changing the color temperature from one of the extreme settings (so the second set of LED's is turned on) is quite strong. I suppose that using a lower minimum brightness would have resulted in flickering. You really cannot use this as a mood light, but as a desk lamp, the minimum brightness is ok.

I'm so pleased with this purchase. This LED light is huge, soft, bright, and well-built. It has a very premium feeling in its construction.I'm using it as the key light for video streaming. It's perfect for this purpose -- the illumination is soft but still lively, and the color and brightness adjustments give more than ample range to achieve the desired creative effect. It even comes with a sturdy padded case for travel.My only complaint is the power adapter. It's bulky, and it's positioned halfway up the cord, so it hangs mid-air and makes a flimsy light stand even more wobbly. So, definitely use a sturdy light stand with this heavy, well-built light.I've always been very satisfied with my Neewer lighting purchases. I'll update this review if anything changes.UPDATE: I've had this light almost 3 years, and it continues to work perfectly. Incredible purchase.

Love how thin this light is and the build quality is amazing. Using it mostly for online video meetings to control the light on me. The remote doesn't have an on/off feature so you have to turn the brightness to zero to turn it off - a minor inconvenience. No problem recommending this light.

This is easily one of the best purchases I have EVER made on Amazon. I was looking for a light to shoot video and had previously used soft boxes. I always loved the light quality of sb's but HATED the setup time and portability. I decided to give this light a try and I was BLOWN AWAY!!!! First of this light is super BRIGHT it can easily light an entire room or scene. The brightness is both a pro and a con as you will definitely want to have some diffusion on-hand to bring it down. Even on the lowest setting it's crazy bright. I had some diffusion socks from a beauty dish that I used to soften it up. You may want to get one or two of the smaller ones instead of this one if your intention is to specifically light a face for an interview or do a beauty shot. The kit with the two smaller versions is what I would have purchased had I known what I know today. That is in no way meant to take anything away from this light. It is strong an amazing and the construction is surprisingly top-notch. Use this light to light entire rooms or if you have alot of space to move it far from your subject or get the two smaller ones for more control and cinematic effects. In either case you are sure to be pleasantly surprised by the output and quality of this light. Lastly PORTABILITY!!!! Its incredibly lightweight, super thin and has a very handy carrying/storage case. Remote control is clutch especially for self-filming!!! Takes about 1-2 minutes to setup and take apart... I WILL NEVER OWN ANOTHER SOFT BOX. RING LIGHT WHO??? This is the way to go!!! Do yourself a favor and invest in these lights!!

I am a lawyer and I market my practice with YouTube videos. Several years ago I purchased three large fluorescent softboxes which generate a lot of light but take up a huge amount of space. I recently moved the softboxes to an empty space at my office but wanted the flexibility of recording videos in my home office. I watched reviews of the Newer flapjack light and the Falcon Eyes flapjack lights and decided to go with the Newer because it was less expensive but seemed to have all the features I needed.I mounted the Newer flapjack on a stand and paired it with a cheap LED panel. I am blown away with the results. The Newer flapjack is extremely bright - I keep it at 45%. It also gives you the option to change the color temperature (I leave it at 5600k - daylight). My home office videos are bright and clear and these two small lights are much smaller and more efficient than my large softboxes.The only negative I would mention is the remote control, which is cheaply made and uses up batteries (I use rechargeable batteries but after a few days the batteries are drained).For my home video studio purposes, this flapjack light is perfect and I am very happy with this purchase.
