The light is ok but after ordering I noticed a better LED light on [...] One with an adjustable shoe mount.

Comments about Flashpoint Flashpoint Shoe Mountable 112 LED Dimmable Video Light with Barn Door:

This light looks good. Barn door that came with it fits perfectly. Made of plastic yet it looks decent for the money. It has a dimmer even though the range is not that great. Dimmest to brightest has about a range of one f stop. The biggest problem with this light is that it makes humming noise which interferes with your internal or external mic.
The color temperature is 5800k to 6000k which is slightly on the cooler side. I need to add a light amber gel to make it more pleasant.
It's good for still too especially in close range. It cannot replace flash though.

Comments about Flashpoint Flashpoint Shoe Mountable 112 LED Dimmable Video Light with Barn Door:

This light is great. If you want a strong and portable light for video or still pictures this is the one. One thing I like about this light other than the price is the weight it dosen't add any unnecessary weight to your equipment. And the fact that the light uses AA batteries is a plus, one less thing to charge before a shoot.
