Best Aputure & Amaran Lighting for RUclips and Film!
Thanks for your review!
Was really interested about the smallrig product but thanks to your video, i think i'll wait a bit
Thank you for the video boss
No problem 👍 my pleasure.
Thanks for the video, looks really good light. Would love to test it out, looks really convenient as a small travelling light to fit in a backpack. Did you measure the output with the fresnel? Can’t seem to find the datas about it. Is it much brighter with the fresnel? What about the sound fan? Would you say it is really quiet if nearby an actor ? Thanks
How dimmable are they? Not only the 100% brightness matters. The 1% is also important when you want or need to go subtle
Love your videos, man. I do not like this light, nor the 150C. For me, this is not the most practical form factor for the task. I have an Amaran P60C which has become one of my "go-to" lights, especially with the included softbox. Besides using it for various hues of white I can paint a room in a house any color, as well as anything in it, because the saturation is so crazy with this light. I've done a few pretty amazing shots with it. It can also just tint the room some if I want that, or just a tinted beam in part of the room, and everything in between. No, it won't work outside against the sun or to light a warehouse in a color by itself (I have lit part of a warehouse with it), but just as all combination wrenches basically look the same there is a reason you don't use a 3/8 wrench on a 3/4 inch bolt head. The right tool for the right job. If I were to get something to do the really heavy work that my P60C cannot do I would get the P300C. Being a panel light it does not have the issues a single-point-ish light has. It throws a nice, broad swath of light or color without a hot spot.
Thanks for your kind words. You make an interesting point about the P 60 C. I have one and it does a great job. You have me wondering whether I am overlooking some of its better qualities. I need to get it out again and look at the color. Also, you are correct that the light isn’t as important as the cinematographer who sets up the light. Thanks thanks for your comment.
10:00 my first thought was I can absolutely see it immediately - it leads to much more pleasing skin tones. I shoot weddings and used to use dual ls60x. I no longer have them and have been thinking about how bad I want them back, now I can easily see getting two of these with frenels. It would elevated speeches and the reception substantially and now with this new white light, all the beautiful dresses and quality fabric will look even more beautiful, especially now that these are 80s I can take them further away but still overpower gross venue lighting. I am incredibly excited - my resolution for the next two years is to stop upgrading bodies and lenses and focus on what I have and invest in lighting.
Sounds like a great plan. I’m certainly going to try to get more of these lights. Stay in touch.
I own 4 of these and they’re phenomenal. Def the best light of 2025 … so far.
Wow, I wish I had four. Maybe someday.
When using your podcast mic via xlr, do you still need to add a loudlifter for the audio. Or with the Rodecaster due is not needed?
600$ for an 80 watt... between the product title and the price you can always tell when a reviewer was given the product for free.. smh...
I think that it’s too costly for the output. Makes me concerned that a 300w or 500w version would be unaffordable for most of us. I know the light quality is far superior but it’s very costly for 80w.
I hear you. That’s my big concern.
Like it or not, aputure has changed course and not marketed themselves correctly. Aputure is now for high end stuff. Amaran is for influencers and super low end stuff. Owner-ops are left in the middle without a brand. But both brands do offer fantastic items here and there for owner-ops. For example, the new 1200x is probably one of the most aggressively priced lights on the market right now for what it does. The amaran flex lights are also a tier above most other amaran products and offer great value. One company wont and fillful all your lighting needs. So many lights are on the parker for you to choose from. Ive recently started a shift to crmx lights, so the 80c makes sense for me. It will replace my LS 60x fixtures. So i'm hyper for it. But simply put, aputure is leaving some of us in the dust. Theyre initial branding that attracted so many customers their way has faded, but its not gone. Simply put, there's nanlite, godox, gvm (i wouldnt buy gvm, but ymmv), aputure, etc. there are other companies. I believe smallrig makes a 60/80 wat fixture at a great price.
Did you purchase this? Or are you given it to positive spin the review. It’s over $600. And it’s VERY tiny. And as premium as it may be it’s still not enough, and not as nice as the pre prolicht Aputure lights (600d pro is much better quality all around).
It’s small but packs a punch way above its weight class.
I’ve owned this light for a month but I am going to stop you right at the beginning. You can’t compare an amaran 150 to an Aputure C. Right there that is disingenuous. Also it’s an expensive light and even though I bought it… I would hesitate hard to recommend to anyone. Even the mount is not great, half the time it doesn’t even accept the accessories correctly, and can jam. Please do not push this light like an influencer. Loses credibility.
Thanks for your feedback. It’s good for me to hear other people‘s experiences. Aperture did send me this light for free to review, and I am a big fan of Aputure so I am biased. But my excitement about this light is genuine. I try hard to express my true feelings, but I recognize that others might disagree with me. Thanks for your comments. It helps to put things in perspective.
Before Aputure bought Prolycht the claim was that RGBWW was all that you needed.
I hear you. It also makes me wonder whether the next big thing will make this light a doorstop. You never know. It appears to be the price of progress. Thanks for your comment.
Dude. The comedic timing on your cuts get me every time. Subscribed.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks, man.
They will probably be announcing the 120/150 and the 300 at NAB this year. I only know that they will probably be out of my price range when they hit the market, due to the cost of new technology.
What is new? Aputure aquired Prolyght whic was using these non RGB light engines.
They haven’t told me anything about their future plans, but I share your concern that it is going to be expensive.
Great video
Glad you liked it! Thanks.
Top, parabéns pelas explicações!
Espero ter ajudado. (Hope this helps)
Great content and awesome delivery. Subscribed.
Thank you! Appreciate you subscribing. It means a lot to me.
I love this man, let’s protect him at ALL COST😅 ❤❤
Thanks man.
Has anyone ever noticed that because the mic on this lav is on the side and not the top that it’s most susceptible to clothing rustle?
Can this work with dj osmo pocket 2?
Absolutely. It can work with any small lightweight camera.
Congratulations !!!
Thank you!! Appreciate you taking the time to comment.
I really love your videos!
Glad you like them! It means a lot.
love your humor!!! btw, could you do a comparison of the neewer cb100c vs amaran 150c?
Thanks so much for your kind words. I will talk to Neewer about a CB100c. Thanks for the request.
i prefer the spotlight mount
I hear you. Me too.
Thank you for stopping by our booth - Stevie sure knows how to shut down a booth!! Hope you had a great time at NAMM 2025 - roll on 2026!
Thanks for watching. I would’ve liked to have spent some time at the ROLI booth as it looks like you have some really great products this year.
best review ever, great sense of humor
Thanks so much. This means a lot. I’ll try to make more.
Where can I purchase those third party gobos @ 5:28?
Size M is simply 66mm, so any 66mm Gobo will work on the amaran spotlight SE. Here is an example set on Amazon: amzn.to/4aMPoOb (Affiliate Link). I don't know of any third-party GoBos for the SmallRig RF10c. Best of Luck!
Thank you!
You’re welcome! Hope you find it useful.
Osm review thank you
You are welcome, glad you liked it!
how the hell you don´t have more subscribers. You have the perfect combination of direct and useful information and still some entertainment and fun in it! subscribed right away.
I appreciate that! I may not have a lot of subscribers, but the ones I have are fantastic. Thanks.
Yes, this product is limited, but a good scene can be achieved with the proper lighting adjustments. And plus this item is very portable. I plan to use two of them to expand the versatility of looks. You have to be creative and intentional with your scene to maximize the capabilities of any product. A slightly sharper image can be achived if the lens is removed. This is a good product for the cost.
Thanks! I agree with you, but you do have to use these lights creatively. I’m sure you’ll do well.
Great review! I have several neewer products including their 660 rgb panels. They are a great company! I wish to see more reviews from you with neewer products because there are not many on RUclips. Keep up the Great work!
Thanks, will do!
Does the m size gobos fit in the rf10c? I would love to purchase more gobos
It does not fit. You could probably wear something up because the go on the larger. However, not going to be simple.
Recently disovered your channel & I must say, your comparo reviews are the best, big fan from India! Lots of love!! 🧡
Wow, thank you so much! Would love to go to India someday. Thanks for watching.
Would you say this is a better value than the MT Pro? The Ace 25 seems to be more powerful, no?
While I love the MT pro, yes, 25 is significantly cheaper. I can do so much. I would have to say it’s a better value. That said, I would want to be without my MT pro. Good luck.
5:35 what a shot!
Thanks. I noticed it was kind of cool when I was at ended up. Thanks for noticing.
Giving it a go! Thanks for your investigative journalism!
Hope you enjoy it. Thanks for watching.
What is incredibly depressing about this video, is how INCREDIBLE THE OLD INTERVIEW SHOT LOOKS WITH THE TUNGSTENS. See if you can recreate that look with led then we’ll talk. And I own many ARRI an Aputure lights! But you have to be kidding! The interview shot from your doc is one of the best interview lighting I’ve ever seen!!!
Thanks for noticing. Thanks.
Thanks for Day 2 reviews. Hope you had safe trip home to sunny Az for some R&R after al that walking at NAMM. My brother used to live in Tempe. I checked your website and samples of your cool and interesting music. Some of your music reminds me of Frank Zappa. Have you heard that comparison before?
Thanks for the compliment on my music. I have not heard it compared to Frank Zappa but I am flattered. Appreciate the kind words.
I definitely was upset when you passed by Sound Devices on the first day. They are a very popular goto in film and tv audio
Thanks so much for the tip. I learned a lot at the sound devices booth. Hope you got what you wanted out of it.
I enjoyed your walkthrough! Very Interesting! I want to buy the Hammond SKX Pro Dual. You did stop by for a few seconds at their small booth! I've been to many NAMM shows through the years always enjoyable. This year I didn't go. I hope you enjoyed the convention. All my best from Hollywood California.
Thanks for watching. I actually had a great time at the show. I have an SK-1 by Hammond and I love it. But I am tempted by the pro. I was also disappointed that Hammond's booth was so small., But there was a constant stream of great organ players to listen to so that was nice.
super tipp thank you!
You're welcome! Glad you liked it.
I LOVE the way you demonstrate the value exchange visually using actual dollar bills. So clever
Thanks. I appreciate hearing that.
I am not sure how you are not more popular. I don’t care your review was the most professional review I’ve seen in a long time straight to the point immediate subscription.
Wow, thank you so much Carlos. Much appreciated.
Your coverage of NAMM25 is the best I have seen this year. I am watching from the UK, the walk through covering all the floors and showing the stands is really appreciated. Nicely done! I watched right to the end, and yes that looked nothing like Stevie Wonder. 🤔 I worked with his UK manager for three years back in the day. You certainly deserve the free t-shirts. Look forward to the next one. Just got yourself a new subscriber.
Wow, thank you, man! Even my wife hasn't finished watching. Love the UK by the way. been there 3 times. Hope to go again. Thanks for watching. Welcome to the family.
What's the Amaran Ace 25c replace battery policy? Is there an option, or you just threw it in the dumpster at the end of the battery life?
I don't know about the battery replacement policy, but I assume it would be cheaper to get a new one. Sadly, that is the world we live it.
Would that MC PRO bubble diffuser work on the Amaran Ace25? Or no?
It will not. They’re not the same size hopefully amaran will make a bubble diffuser for the ace, but I don’t have any confirmation of that.
@@storybabble Thank you so much for the quick reply. No worries. I've got an LS60x and MT Pro but thinking of getting another smaller light for extra fx and fill/color options. Think I'll maybe go with the Ace25 for now. Does it have the strobe effect?
@@Baronvonheadless Yes, the 825 does have a strobe effect and many others. Also, if you purchase through amaran's website and use the code "StoryBabble10" you can save 10% on your purchase. Amaran renewed that coupon code through 2025. amaran.sjv.io/da2QZ2
I certainly feel bad for sending you to the sound devices booth. What you were looking at 21:24 is there recorder/mixers. They range from $1000-$10,000 from top to bottom. And the unit on top of the other unit is their Nexus wireless receiver, which is their amazing wireless system. The Nexus system costs around $10,000 so it’s definitely not entry-level.. Sound device is really are the industry leader in production sound.
Wow, that’s a lot of money. But don’t feel bad about sending me there. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Thanks.
