I love that you can adjust the two color temps either together or separately. And dim to fine tune the direction.

I use this light to proof prints. It works very well for that.

Didn't want to spend a fortune for special, limited uses, but the price of this one was quite reasonable. Seems to do everything the more expensive ones do.

I bought 2 and I am very happy with them, just what I was looking for, you have to purchase sony batteries that are about 10 bucks. Great products on the LED's. Leoescobar.com

I love this for my purposes, which include the examination of paintings. The dimmer switch offers a nice range of brightness, while the color temperature settings are great, also. Sometimes I need to use it by holding it, and for that it is not idea, as the tripod attachment area is not that comfortable to hold. On a tripod, though, it works very well.

Great light. Would give 5 star if it allowed you to dim all the way down. The lowest dim is still too bright sometimes

I've only used the light a couple of times but it seems to work very well. I've accidentally dropped it without any harm. The brackets are a weak point but, for the price, I'm pretty happy.

So far so good. Easy to assemble looks very good on top of my Sony HXC MC 2000 camera. When we cover sports events other groups move to the side now. Light is very powerful plus you can adjust to need. Thumps up!

It is better with a power supply. I was fortunate that my Sony lithium battery packs and power supply are inter changeable. It has a slide to move it from warm to bright light. Great auxiliary light.

The light itself is very nice and does exactly what it says, so I'm impressed with that. However; I'm wondering how long the very cheap plastic will last before something breaks. Needless to say, I'll be using it very carefully!

Bought them to do some small product photography. Also got some Sony clone battery packs to power these. With NPF550 batteries the lights were good for about 2 hours at full power. There is no AC adapter input.

Works great, but made cheaply. Not sure it will last.

I purchased 2 units and use them for back light or side light of subjects. the ability to change color of the light adds to their usefulness. A few clamps are very useful because they are small enough to put most anywhere.

This is a great product for the very reduced price it's at. The build quality is about medium, and you might want something more rugged for pro work, but it's worked great the two times I've used it, and will probably replace it with a more expensive but durable unit later.

Don't forget to buy a battery and charger, which you can get for only about $15-$20 more. Once you're set these are great close work lights! Love the color control and built in dimmers. I own 6. You should too.

Very impressed with the quality of light from this device. I have been slow to migrate to the LED style lighting as the traditional strobes are money. This might change my mind.

This LED light is worth having in my bag! It is amazing how bright it is! He color temperature makes a HUGE difference when shootindooes or by a window with a cooler light! This light don't come with a battery so Remember to purchase one or maybe some extra batteries! It is excellent for food photography or Macro!!!! I purchased a few of these & will do it all over again! A must have!

Bi color with dimmable light. Useful AA batteries conerter. Adjustable bracket for various angles.

This provided just the right amount of light needed to video an event. The only downside was the plastic hot shoe mount felt flimsy as if it was going to fall off (but it stayed on the whole time). I think it would be more secure a fit if it was made of metal. Overall I was satisfied.

Light output is quite good for a small unit. Only concern is plastic shoe mount. Not sure of durability. So far, so good, however.

I just receive this light and have not had much time to use it. From what I can tell so far it is a very good buy!

At this price, you can't beat it. I have two older units that don't work as well that cost twice the price. I actually bought two of these 198's and they have an attachment to couple them together. If you buy 4 units you can make a larger square which is great for weddings and other low light situations needing more lighting. Place them on a small 8" tripod for stationary light accent from under a chair or table. The unit has a nice wide screen and a diffuser is included which is needed to soften light. The controls are precise to get your desired lighting mix and of course, the warmness controll is very responsive. It works on 6 AA batteries or a standard BP 950 Canon Cancorder battery which when mounted can be used grab handle if doing a shot free hand. There are other models at higher prices and I assume yield a larger screen for more lighting per unit and heavier as well. In doing weddings, I need to be mobile and be light weight to move around in getting the shots. So this unit fits the need best.

There are many situations in nature where a flash is not appropriate but the conditions are not good enough to get a decent picture with any camera. This flashpoint takes care of that.
