Lighting Showdown: Comparing Godox, Nanlite, and Genaray 3OO Series Lights

LED lighting can have many uses.
Video production: LED video lights are often used in video production to provide additional or primary lighting for subjects on set. They are versatile and can be used to create a variety of lighting effects, such as soft, diffused light or hard, dramatic light.
Photography: LED video lights can be used in still photography as well, they are often used to provide additional lighting for portrait or product photography, as well as to create special effects such as light painting.
Live events: LED video lights are commonly used in live events such as concerts, theater performances, and conferences, to provide stage and audience lighting.
Broadcast: LED video lights are used in television and video production to provide lighting for on-camera talent and sets. They are often preferred for their energy efficiency and long lifespan.
Outdoor and location shooting: LED video lights are portable and can be battery-powered, making them ideal for outdoor and location shoots where access to power may be limited. They can be used for a variety of applications such as interview lighting, or to light up a specific area on location.
I'm taking a look at a few new lights, specifically the Godox Knowled M300D, the Nanlite Forza 300, the Nanlite FS-300, and the Genaray Powerhouse lights. The main goal is to find the best light to replace my old Aputure 120D. In this video, I'll cover a bit about each light and what I like and don't like about each one. Links to more specifics and to buy each light are below.

Great helpful review 👌✨

[@raymunn]

Great comparison. Thanks for the review. Nice to see Godox ranking high in quality. Would love to see the M300D compared to the Apurture 300D

[@LukeDewar]

Great review, deserves way more views but I believe I know why. The payoff is way too early ( 1:18 ) I reckon if you said that at the end you would have more view. That's just my opinion though. Don't worry I am watching till the end.
