Comments about Flashpoint Flashpoint 30 LED light- 5500K, Shoe Mountable:
For a very inexpensive little light it is awesome. Batteries last a long time, the color is very consistent and it is light and durable. However it will not light up a whole scene. At the price you could get 12 of them and have lots of light.

I bought two of these for low-light still photography work. The unit is not bright and one quit working after a few uses.

Liked everything about the three units i recently purchased from adorama, good output, pretty light for aircraft travel, smallish for easy packing, batteries last for more than 4 hours, recommended.

Comments about Flashpoint Flashpoint 30 LED light- 5500K, Shoe Mountable:
This light is bright, pair it up with a mini tripod and you have a trouble light, a power outage light along with a excellent light for indoor video. Two are even better, one direct and one bounce. Excellent battery life, you get alot of light for quite awhile on 4 AAs.

Comments about Flashpoint Flashpoint 30 LED light- 5500K, Shoe Mountable:
I use it mainly for indoor shots in low light situations. For macro shots I use it OFF CAMERA to get the proper light distribution and light direction. I photographed a Kodak Grey card using the Flashpoint as the only light source.
I examined the digital image on Photoshop and found that there was NO color bias from the light source.

Comments about Flashpoint Flashpoint 30 LED light- 5500K, Shoe Mountable:
I think this is one of the best buys I have seen for lighting. There are units out there that cost about $200 and have some brightness control. However with some home made filtering you can control the amount of light. They give you a basic tungsten filtering and the lights themselves are daylight so it gives you a wide range for use inside and out. And they are cool in temperature. If you are handy, you can make these little lights work for you in many ways. Throws a lot of light. I like them.

Comments about Flashpoint Flashpoint 30 LED light- 5500K, Shoe Mountable:
I got this light in a hurry, had some issues with lighting in certain venues when doing live recordings. I pulled this out of the box, put batteries in it and turned it on. It was like turning on the sun!! I had to buy white tights and stretch it over the light to mute it a bit, but still very bright. Do not look directly at this light when turned on, you may burn your retinas.
This thing is huge, much bigger than I anticipated and kind of bulky. It is way bigger than my flash video camera, but so totally worth it to be able to shoot my videos and instantly download them to YouTube and be able to see the show.
Big, bright and heavy.

Comments about Flashpoint Flashpoint 30 LED light- 5500K, Shoe Mountable:
I like these LED lights. They performs very well and give plenty of light. They have good battery life. And the slide in filter is a nice. Also, I cut my own slide in gel filters for 6 different color effects - worked great. I also use two of these LEDs and add a filter made out of milk container plastic to one of the lights for softer effect and the other one full for portraits. They come out pretty cool... I am very happy with these lights.
One last thing. We lost our electric one nite for a few hours. They really lit up the room nice during the blackout.

Tried to take a picture in semi-dark, in light with and with out product (no difference). Unless I got a bad copy, I should have spent 4 to 5 times more to get good product.

Comments about Flashpoint Flashpoint 30 LED light- 5500K, Shoe Mountable:
My first impression when I unpacked it was "Man this thing is huge". It measures 4 3/4" wide by 4 1/4" tall from the top to the shoe. I was really considering returning it because of it's size but I thought I'd give it a try anyway. On my camcorder this thing looked ridiculous but the amount of light this unit provides is very good. This will be handy for indoor or low lighting recordings. I also played with this on my Nikon D300 for some low light close ups and was also impressed with the quality of the shots. The filter was a nice touch also. My only complaint besides its size is the shoe mount is a little flimsy. But all in all I'm pretty satisfied with this purchase.
