This video has sold me on the Light Dome SE for my home studio setup - even though I just placed an order for a Light Dome II. Love it!

lol the chopsticks joke was hilarious

This is a very interesting comparison. Ultimately it's the diameter that affects the quality of the softness of the light but like you say you can't really discern the difference between the two which surprised me this was achievable with the smaller footprint. I only wish my light dome had the grid and I hadn't actually considered using one until I saw your video on the SE.

It surprised me too! I thought the SE would achieve similar results to the Light Dome Mini, but that wasn’t the case. Really good modifier for a studio setup!

​@@SidneyDiongzon thanks for the reply and the recommendation. It's difficult in small rooms to use the light dome and there's always the chance somebody will knock over the light stand if they're not watching.

Cant tell the difference in them both like the size difference in depth - Is it not similar to the Apture Mini Dome II that I have ?

Finally a review on this! Thanks Sid. My space is so small in my room that I can't leave it up and will have to set it up everytime, do you therefore think it's worth it to get the standard Mk II Dome over the SE (do you think I'd get sick of attaching those manual rods everytime to the point that it'd probably discourage me from shooting anything? 😂)

Thanks for this video, Sidney! I sometimes film my YT videos in a bedroom so I'm literally trying to figure out a lighting setup right now that doesn't take up too much space 👍

Light Dome SE is way better!!

Finally managed to find one of these in stock in the uk along with the amaran 100x! Can’t wait for it to arrive and get making videos with them!

SE seems to have more spill since the light source is closer to the diffuser, I'm wondering whichever of these two gives better pleasing image for portraits

Dude what is a lamp do you use on background?

Sold !

The missing video on YT (trust me I searched for a week) SE vs Mini II…. Do you know if Anyone has made that video ?

Wait? u entered in the frame in the beginning (4th sec) , looked cool and unusual... how?

How does SE compare to Light Dome Mini II ? I am really curious on that.

Hey Sidney, which of the white diffusers did you use, the thinner or thicker one, or did you use both?

Really considering it....

Thanks for this really great comparison

Hey Sidney, a lot of ppl mention they have broken the “chopsticks” as when bent they have snapped, did you find them sturdy enough?

Hey sidney, just want to know the softbox length when collapsed?

Any idea when this will be released?

Asking the eternal question...Which is more important, width or length? 😁

Thanks. That was helpful.

The one on your left - yes

The main thing is the width. The parabolic element doesn’t really do anything, and just unnecessarily takes up space.

Any ETA on the release of the SE?

Heck yeah I will!!!

Dome 2 will be softer which is clearly visible in every single comparison video. Dome 2 is 15 inches deeper which increases distance between the 2 diffusions hence softer. It's better to make room and spend 100 bucks extra because the difference is clearly visible on KZread videos
