  • With Colbor making a $40 cheaper bi-color light, does that mean you should grab it or the classic Amaran 60x? These bi-color lights are super useful and portable. I myself love a good bi-color light and both of these lights are similar in many ways. I hope this comparison helps you decide which might be better to go with.

    Those nato rail slots on the Colbor is compatible with cold shoe mounts so you can use that as a mounting option for various things including other types of light stand mounts.

    Colbor is much more interesting to me. IMO, every sub-100W light should support USB power to work with powerbank or small GaN power adapter. However, I red many complains on quality issues (failed buttons), especially from early adopters. I hope they fixed the issues.

    I hope you’re happy with yourself!You made me buy the 60x!! Now I have a whole new set of evolution to get into. This is my first foray into the Bowen Mount and judging by your other videos I have all kinds of other toys to get. Snoots. Projectors. Fresnels! Oh man, my wife’s not gonna be happy with this!!

    The main A roll shot looks particularly good in this video. Thought I would mention it, in case you were playing with the setup. Good info too.

    I just picked up the colbor light because it is smaller and seems more versatile. Also USB-C is a bigger bonus than I think people realize. If you don't have a lot of legacy batteries lying around, it is a huge cost saver to just use a power bank for your phone/tablet. It also means less overall gear when travelling since I usually pack a power bank and usb wall plug anyways.

    When I see a light video by Fwellow Filmmaker, I click on it! Again, thanks for using the same reflectors on both light when testing the output. As someone who likes switching reflectors, this data is very useful!

    I just bought the 60xs. Very happy with it. You’re right, the case isn’t much to write home about, but the little light is a powerhouse for my tiny studio. I went with the Amaran since I already own the Aperture MC light and I can control both from the same app.

    Great review! I wanted to buy the Colbor Cl60r, but I think I'll choose the Amaran 60xs because of the mounting bracket. I want to mount the light on a ball head :/

    Thanks for the comprehensive review. Given your expertise, would you consider making a video like “Which light to buy in 2023” in the 60W class and/or the 150W class? I feel I’ve lost track of all those different models (if I ever was on track 😮).

    I had been weighing getting a Colbor light to save a few dollars, so I really appreciate this video. I think for the conveniences, as well as light accuracy, I will stick with the Amaran. I have a 60d and it seems as long as the mic is more than 3 feet from the light the fan has never been an issue.
