Been looking for a good 100w tbh, bonus if it can run off usb pd
Tbh this is effectively a 100W light, or slightly more. It’ll be 110W @2700K and 6500K, only 220W when you’re right in between.
where's this info coming from?
Mostly from owning dozens of LED film lights and seeing how they operate. The led panel is made up of more or less equal parts warm bulbs and cool bulbs, so the only time it’s operating at full output is when you’ve got them all on, somewhere in the 4000-5000K range. When you’re at either end of the spectrum you’re using half the potential output.
The manual also tends to have the lux rating at various temperatures and distances.
@Jake T: it's definitely a stop darker when you get to the warmest setting but not seeing all that much variation through the rest of the spectrum on the ol' light meter when it comes to output. you're probably right though
Is this OK for home movies? Asking for a friend…
