It attaches to the camera via the hot shoe, and actually can emit &#8220;flashes&#8221; that are 4x the normal continuous light output to illuminate still images. You can stack multiple units to increase total light and in addition to hot shoe mounting you can also attach the panel to a standard 3\/8-inch tripod or light stand thread.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/alc_images\/article12298_1.jpg\" alt=\"lowel blender\" \/><\/p>\n<h4><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/llbln10.html\">Lowel Blender <\/a><\/h4>\n<p><a title=\"Shop at Adorama\" href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/\">Adorama<\/a> price: $494<\/p>\n<p>Simple but ingenious, the Blender consists of 12 large LEDs\u2014six of them daylight-balanced, the other six tungsten balanced.

This flicker-free unit offers output that is three times more efficient than a conventional tungsten camera light. It is heat-free so you can actually hand-hold them, and is dimmable from 0 to 100% of full power, with almost no shift in color. The light has a 30-degree spread, but another version, the Mini Flood, offers a 50-degree spread of light. The LitePanels MiniPlus comes in a variety of configurations including a kit.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/alc_images\/article12298_3.jpg\" alt=\"cool lux light and sound video kit\" \/><\/p>\n<h4><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/cosl3000.html\">Cool-Lux Light &amp; Sound Video Kit SL3000LS<\/a><\/h4>\n<p><a title=\"Shop at Adorama\" href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/\">Adorama<\/a> price: $275<\/p>\n<p>Aimed squarely at HD DSLR video shooters, this nicely made tungsten-balanced continuous lighting kit is designed for location interviews.

For DSLR and MILC users, that makes a lot of sense. According to a sales rep, the light on one of the display models at the booth in a recent trade show had been on continuously for nearly 8 hours and although it had dimmed a bit, it still exceeded the company&#8217;s expectations as to how long it would stay on. But the real surprise was the name on the PL 160DN flash: Polaroid! <\/p>\n<p>Available for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/pdpl160dp.html\">Pentax<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/pdpl160dc.html\">Canon<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/pdpl160dop.html\">Olympus\/Panasonic<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/pdpl160ds.html\">Sony<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/pdpl160dn.html\">Nikon<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/alc_images\/article12298_6.jpg\" alt=\"video light set\" \/><\/p>\n<h4><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/llid045.html\">Lowel id-Light Complete On-Camera Set<\/a><\/h4>\n<p><a title=\"Shop at Adorama\" href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/\">Adorama<\/a> price: $255<\/p>\n<p>This focusable, tungsten-balanced video light can be dimmed, and can be conveniently mounted directly on a wide variety of cameras and camcorders.
