Very cool light. I’m happy that you decided to cover it.
I like your channel name!
This is the first ELM video I see that looks like... "we HAVE to do this, so let's do something and move on".
True
Someone was definitely off screen holding a gun to their head.
Seems a bit small to be bothered with an inflation mechanism but I really like the idea for a china ball style light. Or maybe even just a bigger rectangle light source
But why? Why dont you just use a flexlight with a softbox? Its the same weight class and does not need to bee inflated... I dont really get the inflation deflation thing. In 1,5 minutes i can also put a softbox on my Amaran F22c AND i can also use the light without a softbox if i want.
The magnetic back is a nice feature on this one. The Amarans have a really bad design as far as the connection to the stands/arms with their wonky proprietary pins. And this is a little cheaper. So it does give the Amarans some competition depending on how you intend to use the light. Not gonna lie I would use the sht out of that magnetic feature. You can easily mount a metal base plate anywhere without even using a stand
Now this is a Chinese balloon I can support LOL
Now if they can only make inflatable C Stands, then we're talking. The lights arent the problem for me, it's THE DAMN STANDS
Espically when you are a solo filmmaker hahaha.
Looks great but what happens when you have a puncture? It will happen sooner or later and then what?
I really like your channel. It's now my favorite filmmaking channel on RUclips :)
I also started doing some lighting/set building breakdown videos but I'm nowhere near your level 😅
Are single point light sources still preferable to multipoint sources for most work though?
How is the function to defalte the air from the Sirui A100b ???
Questions: What is the light meter reading of the aperture (F.stop) at 10 feet from the subject at ISO640? Battery is additional cost, correct (V-mount $plus)? How long does battery charge last and recharging time? Can I use Anker Power bank instead of V-mount? Any noise (Humming) from the light or power supply?
The only thing that would make me nervous would be the pump dying at some point. Otherwise very cool.
Pretty sure you can inflate it with your mouth from the release valve; of course it would be a pain in the a*s*s, but if the pump dies at least the light is not becoming unusable
Looks great but price is a bit inflated 🤑🤣
Please show us the Helium version
Still learning here, and I wonder if I can run this lighting question by anyone: I've noticed that for point-source lights (e.g., Aputure 600D) soft boxes place the diffusion at distances of maybe a couple of feet from the light, but for panels (like this one) those rectangular softboxes place the diffusion much closer, at mere inches away from the light source. Why does such closer diffusion work with panels? Is it simply because the light source (the array of LEDs) is already spread out?
Correct. 600D is a COB light. Small source. Larger source = softer light
God damn brother, you lost some weight, so happy to see! Keep up the great work, always love ur vids!
Yeah I’m on a diet
Great video as usual. I always learn something. This light looks cool but also looks like a gimmick. And for $500+, is it really worth it? It seems the cost is the convenience, no need to attached a soft box. If one has some extra $ sitting around, seems like this would be a good buy. But otherwise it looks like one of those items you would like to try but not necessarily own. Still, very cool!
Love the new logo intro
Hey thanks!!!
I don’t do crowd funding, so please let us know when this becomes a real product.
This is not a crowd funding but a presale.Order will be shipped out in March.
Thanks!
What do you do when it pops or gets a hole in it? Is there a free replacement plan? This is why inflatable lighting will never catch on. Too risky. I'd hate to get to the job, only to find out that I can't set up my light because it has a hole in it.
Bike tubes can be easily repaired and so can be air mattresses. Why shouldn't it be possible to patch this just as easily?
baloons are a hot topic lately
Fixed cable is a deal-breaker...
Thanks for the video, I hate you 😂 BTW can you make a video about backdrops, like how they are very usable during boring interviews, about backdrop types, colors and about materials differences which one to choose and etc.
Better watch out if you get one of these. With all the crazy things happening the military might shoot down your balloon light. 😆
We almost made a thumbnail based on that news story Hahaha
Where can I get the grill scraper. GAS!
You should make a stand up comedian show with lights.
They should have check with the consumers to see if this was a product what would be needed at that size, the non removable cable is a deal breaker in 2023.
Too many things that can die on this fixture.
looking so manly with their the new haircut, I wonder if he got a fade to the sides he would have the badboy look .
Now , i'm not a big fan of LED panels they never look soft enough IMO but i'm impressed witht he dinner shot how soft it looked.
Hey I'm early today! 🥲
Seems like a less portable, strangely designed version of my @Intellytech LC-160.
the whole channel is about lighting?! wow, that is doubling down if i ever saw it.
And believe it or not “cinematographers” dedicate their whole professional lives to studying lighting
Really cool idea but they should have made it work with a frame as a backup plan in case the balloon get a hole on it.
it is not that easy to get a hole on it. And can be easily fixed by a PVC glue like bike tube/swimming ring.
#SpyBalloonLight 😂🤣
Ooh this will be my favorite light of the year. You guys have a great video here. Thanks. Not subscribing. ;)
Its not powerful enough.
i thought you guys didnt do sponsorships?
I finally know how to pronounce Sirui. Unsubscribed. 👍
How... convenient. A new product in named and its release is just happens to coincide with a time in our lives that people are hyper focused on balloons for some reason. I'm unsubscribing again.
It’s true…….. haha or maybe it’s not a coincidence 🤔
This light is great but this channel is terrible. It breaks my heart to think that this poor light had to be subjected to listening to the foolishness coming out of the mouth of Thomas. This channel is a joke and should be unplugged…unlike the light they just showcased shining high and mighty, a shining beacon of hope. A cloud of silver lining and LEDs.
Please Epic Light Media, when you leave to pursue a different career path please leave this light on before you leave. It acts as an invitation to other filmmakers who actually know what they are talking about unlike you. It will shine like the North Star and will attract filmmakers and they will use the light for filmmaking purposes. They will see signs that you were there but will paint over the walls with metallic gray paint and use it as a colour grading suite. They will put carpet down to sound treat the new audio recording room. Any trace of you will be gone, except…except for that light. Shining in the corner.
I liked the video so much I hit the unsubscribe button twice
I want to unsubscribe but I can not, jjjjjj, nice review.🫡
