good video. i like how the review is a good how to and at the same time a bit of a tongue in cheek review on the things you don't love/want to spend extra on but have managed to keep working with.
This June Rayzr 7 MC 400 1x2 panels will be available at B&H. They supposedly have a power input of over 400 watts, so may be as bright as the S60-C, have a bunch of effects and color gel settings. I do want to get my hands on one and test it. Besides being 1/3 the cost it's about 1/2 the weight of the S60. I work with a gaffer who has a few Razyr 7 lights and he loves them- very high build quality.
Depends how far away the subject is from light- with a wide lens that implies the light won't be too close. Outdoors we usually start with at least an M18 and go bigger, through a frame of diffusion. Or a reflector/large frame, bouncing the sun or bright sky. S60 as key on a sunny day- that's a tough one, but as always, depends on the setup.
Certainly one of the most requested lights with shoots that have budgets. Important if you're a rental house. Not as important for any production with a budget. Lots of interesting lights on the market now, at a significantly lower price point. But again, if you rent, you gotta have 'em.

Thank you. I like to see what is state of the art to buy the best cheap alternatives.

Why would you use a SkyPanel S60 to key when you could use a Tuneable COB Bownes mount and Dome?
Amazing video. TY
Thank you, that was very useful
Thanks for watching!
Is the skypanel able to light a subject in exteriors on a sunny day? Would it be reasonable tu use it with wide lenses in those conditions?

Crazy to think this light is more expensive than the S35 Red Komodo. But I guess it's the best light money can buy.

@@cinemak1759 True. I'll bet I'll get laughed off a hollywood set if I show up with my Godox SL60 lights.
@@cinemak1759 Which light at a good price can be the equivalent of the Arri Skypanel? Thanks!
@@marcoaslan Aputure P600C. Maybe Nanlux 650C but I've never used one.
@@cinemak1759 thanks!
