Nice review. I think this light would be great as a hair light when boomed overhead for photographing a group of people. Glad you were able to review this new light. I was hoping you could review the 240c. It looks like they wanted the 240cl. I had no idea this light even came out until seeing it on your site.
I probably won't end up with my hands on the 240C, but I like it a lot from what I've seen! This light would definitely be perfect for that, it's so light and the output should be strong enough for photographers!
Nice. I especially love it's fanless. I think you haven't mentioned max output :(, have to go to their page. I knew this light will come out, cause they shared the manual long time ago :D. Is velcro on diffusion, crate and softbox falling apart? I got this issue with my new 240C, but it has different softbox design. I got a replacement softbox from Nanlite service and it's the same crap ... looks like lately they wanted to cut costs and ordered the cheapest velcro possible. Apart of not being able to attach the velcro anymore it's real health hazard. When detaching any piece of softbox velcro hooks fly anound to be inhaled or eaten. Two of them got into my eye ... not a great experience ...
It sounds like you use that feature way more often than I do, thanks for letting me know! I almost exclusively use this light with that diffusion panel on so I haven't noticed that. That's something for other people to watch out for for sure!
@@thegranitegaffer Yeah pop-up softbox is a bit different. You can leave it on the panel, especially on the one that does not fold (like 240C). Sometimes I have to remove or change the diffusion in my 240C and this happens. I actually probably removed the diffusion like 10 times and grid 5 times and both already have a problem with proper attachment :( - cause it lost so many hooks.
If it's still getting the job done for you then keep it! No better ROI than a light that's already paid off and working. But if you're interested in selling it, then the longer you wait the less you're gonna get.
Thanks so much for your sharing!!❤
Thanks for sending the light over! Been loving using it!
Dude, you are the man! Love your reviews. Thx for the breakdown. 👍
Thank you!! Glad you are enjoying the reviews!
Great review again. Love it
Thanks for watching!! 🙏🙏🙏
They also have the "coupler" to attach two of them, which creates 4x2 panel :D. Nice

color rendition doesnt look great. is this the light or the camera or the color grade?
you don't like the video quality of my canon 90d with it's 5 stops of dynamic range? lol
