Top kits for video production. UPDATED FOR HOLIDAYS 2012. For the best image quality when shooting HD video indoors, you nned to supplement the light. Here are some top kits. For better-looking videos, you need better video lighting.
The PL160 Dedicated Dual Flash (for Sony) from Polaroid has full TTL dedication, plus a continuous LED light, making this a terrific light if you're shooting still photos and video, since you don't need to switch back and forth between flash and continuous light. The flash has a guide number of 148' (45 m) at 85mm/ISO 100, vari-power settings of 1/1, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8 and 1/16 and built-in "self-storing" diffuser and reflective panels.
The flash head tilts and swivels and features an auto zoom function that sets the flash zoom for the focal length of the lens (24-85 mm). Recycling time is between 0.5 and 9.0 seconds, depending on the power setting. A built-in optical slave function allows you to use this flash off-camera. An auto sleep mode means less charging time and more shooting time. The Dual Flash operates on 4x easy-to-find AA batteries.
