Used Yongnuo YN-1200 3200-5500K Dimmable LED Video Light for Camera or Camcorder, 9300 Lumens

Yongnuo's reputation is built on providing high-quality photo and video gear at a price point that's hard to beat, and this lighting unit is no exception. Its concentrated LEDs provide fine supplementary or even primary lighting, and can be controlled remotely for free-standing operation.

The light itself boasts 1,200 SMD LED beads for an output of 9,300 lumens. That's a lot of power, and with power like that, Yongnuo provided the controls to handle it. A dedicated wireless remote, which can handle up to 8 lighting groups via 8 different channels, operates on a 2.4GHz signal and has a range of 15 meters (which is nearly 50 feet). You can also use a mobile app to do the same job via Bluetooth, which tends to have a range closer to 100 feet.

This light's brightness is adjustable by 1% and 10% increments to allow you to really fine-tune your settings, and the color temperature is adjustable as well from 3200K to 5500K. A digital dimming encoder ensures smooth changes in brightness and color levels without flickering or other disruptions in output. Additionally, Yongnuo's LED driver technology evenly distributes power to each and every LED bead to provide the smoothest and most reliable performance at every brightness level with a fantastic color-rendering index rating of 95%.

The light is powered by 4 x NP-F750 batteries for a 100-minute running time or, for more extended use, a separate AC adapter. Either way, the unit is fan-cooled to prevent overheating.
