I suppose it maybe could be. But in 99% of cases my professional work has never called for a light to be close enough to a microphone for that to matter. In the rare instance that it is in close proximity I'm generally not capturing sound anyway. That's been my working experience at least for the last 12 years. I think the concern with fan noise has mostly been born out of online product reviews. Again, just my opinion. Thanks for watching and taking time to chat. I do agree that delivering the best product for your clients is key ❤️

Thanks for watching

I agree with that 100% Thanks for watching

The only real reason would be if you're speaking close to the mic, it would help cut down on plosives...much like a pop filter. If you're asking why I have it on here, the answer is likely that it was on the mic to begin with and I simply didn't remove it. 😂

Thanks for taking time to reach out. To be clear, I didn't do a very scientific test on these, I simply recorded my dialogue and then some quiet ambient room tone and listened back to hear the difference by ear. I believe I was using my MOVO VXR10 for this. If you have fan noise concerns on a specific light, I would simply recommend searching for some reviews on RUclips to see if anyone gets into it. Even if they don't speak to it specifically if they are filming with the light and you can or can't hear the fan in there final project that will be telling as well. I haven't used the PR150R lights, but that's a bummer that they rattle the diffusers like that. The unfortunate reality is that there are always compromises made to get lights and equipment to price points like these. If possible though, you can often find ways to work around them. For example maybe you can leave the diffusor domes off and use a white piece of foam core or a white wall as a bounce. Thus eliminating the rattle but still getting soft light. Thanks for watching.

Thanks so much for watching

If it is noticeable enough to bother you or a client in your final mix then here is what I would do. Go into your audio editor and select a section of audio that is just isolated fan noise. Create a noise reduction print of that. Then apply that across all dialogue tracks with the offending noise. Tweak the settings until you're happy. That process is for adobe audition, but most audio editing programs have a similar process. Thanks for watching.

@@josephemmons8496 Thanks. Usually I record audio in Logic Pro, and edit videos in Final Cut. Should check whether they have a similar trick.

@@tvnathreviews I am sure Logic would have a noise reduction plugin somewhere. You may just have to dig up a tutorial in that software. Good luck!

Thanks for watching

I totally get that. To some degree I think fan noise comes down to what is acceptable to you and your clients. I've had reliability issues with lights over the years that have made me not trust/use them anymore for that reason too. Thanks for watching

100% Secondary animations like that really up the quality.

Thanks so much! Like most things, it's all about picking the right tool for the job you're trying to do, and that little 80w light can do a lot if used right. I appreciate your kindness and thanks for watching ♥

By all means steal it! Haha, it is honestly a really good life skill I feel like. Life happens in those little moments you know? Thanks for watching.

Thanks, I appreciate you watching!

Thanks so much. I appreciate you watching. Most of it comes from Envato elements. They have a pretty awesome selection.

That's something I failed to mention but should have. Especially for RUclips and platforms like it, the quality of the content will win every time over fancy equipment. It's all just contingent upon the kind of work you're making and who you're making it for. Thanks for watching and congrats on your success.

It takes both pieces for sure. Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching and for taking the ti e to comment. In my opinion there are a couple of differences when working with what people call COB or Chip On Board lights like the one you are talking about from Godox. First is that it is a harder light source, meaning that the physical source of light is smaller. This allows it to cast harder shadows and be modified in a lot of ways that a softer, tube light can't be. It also has that Bowens mount on the front which allows the use of softboxes, beauty dishes, reflectors and all kinds of other accessories to shape and control the light. I'm guessing those factors are part of what determine that price difference. Also, it should be dimmable, which is also a benefit over most florescent fixtures. I wouldn't sweat burning out the SL150w either. I've used 2 of them in my job for the last 4 years without issue. Those chips should last you a long time. I hope that helps.

So glad it was helpful! Thank you for watching.

That's awesome, I'm glad it helped. Thanks for watching

Thanks so much! Appreciate you watching.

For sure. Easier said than done sometimes, but it definitely helps keep things moving. For me it's all about structure and being realistic about how to fit things in my life. Thanks for watching man.
