Thanks man! For key light, the first light I’d choose a light that’s Bowen’s mount so you can have a large light source, then get the Godox LC500R for hair light, or background light. Get both lights if you can so you can have a complete initial setup to begin cuz you’ll need also a light for other than key light

Anıl Ağırdır as long as you start with the battery ALREADY charged at 100% you can plug the DC power supply in and use the light while charging. This will minimize stress on the battery. Not only this light, ANY light, if you don’t do this, you will cause stress.

You’re looking at two completely different lights and price. The LC500R is not made to do that.

I went to a local store today after seeing this video it’s really nice the guy said it’s great for the back as I was looking for one for the background... what would you recommend on continuous lighting.. I was looking at godox 60

Intivtips if you are on a budget, get the 60W for the main key light, which you can attach a soft box for the softest and biggest light, as for everything else, get the LC500R. It’s a must. Get both and combine them as I described.

So can you adjust the power of light at the rgb mode .? For example if I want the blue color more dim to decrease the intensity ?

@ArtVideoProductions

10 ай бұрын

Sorry but I no longer have this model. I couldn’t tell for sure.

This might sound like a silly question but if you had to choose between the LC500R bouncing off a reflector/through a diffusion panel or say the GVM P80S with a 24” softbox, which would you pick? I don’t wish to buy too much equipment so I have a bit of a dilemma. Use case would be something portable for talking head type scenes or lighting someone from 2-3m away. I like how the LC500R is portable, has bicolor and rgb for flexibility and creativity but it’s really difficult to tell how well this could light a subject from a bit of distance. I know a softbox and COB light would have more power and create a softer light but I wonder if the LC500R could achieve something similar albeit with less output? Also lastly, does the LC500R work continuously plugged in? Battery life could be an issue long term?

@ArtVideoProductions

4 жыл бұрын

David M LC500R battery life: 90 minutes, portable, RGB, barn doors. Best results, keep it close to subject. GVM P80-S: not portable, has more power, can mount Bowen’s modifiers. One for key light the other for everything else. You have to buy both for anything you are trying to shoot. And the P80S is very inexpensive but won’t do half of what the LC500R can do. If you get both, use the P80S as keylight and the RC as backlight

Chad Perkins you certainly CAN. And it depends. However, any light or device that uses lithium ion battery, I would not advise you to plug the charger with a dead or close to exhausted battery in while using the light as it will cause a lot of stress on the battery since it’s trying to charge itself thus being drained at once. Only do this when the battery is at least at 60% and that you’re not blasting the light at 100%.

Hi there. I’m do weddings as well and I understand the concern AND the stress that comes along filming a wedding. Godox specs says it will last 2 hours at 100%. I haven’t tested it BUT, I can assure you that this thing charges FAST! It’s a high current charger. Sorry I don’t remember exactly how long but I’d GUESS in about 30 minutes it would charge in full again. Also, be careful where you’re handling the light as you can easily bump on a button and accidentally change something. Don’t hold it from the handle. Hold it slightly above the handle.

Can you run continuous power to it from the charger? or is it battery only?

@ArtVideoProductions

2 жыл бұрын

You can run both and the power supply is included. Make sure you charge the battery first to 100% before using it at the same time. The battery will thank you for not putting stress on it since it would be charging and discharging at the same time. You might also consider in looking at my Godox TL-60 review. That light runs on the Godox lite App, while the LC500R doesn’t support any App if that’s important to you. kzread.info/dash/bejne/dKBk0dyTdJDZYLw.html

I need something that I can either plug to a wall for a day or use with interchangeable batteries. I think that internal battery is a limitation if you cant rely on a external dc input for powering.

This light is the easiest light to hide behind me, and will be probably the ONLY light I’m gonna use for that purpose from now on. Totally worth it!!I hope it helps.
