In Godox LC500R RGB LED Light STICK Review I check out this new Bicolor LED wand that I think serves as a completely different product from the original Godox LC500 LED.

    hey there, supernice and detailed review - thanks a lot for your effort!!! right now I'm struggling to decide whether to go with the forza- or the godox-ecosystem. one main advantage at forza I think, is that all their lights (pocked led, pavotubes, forza60b, forza 200, etc.) can be controlled with one single remote control (not rgb but at least the color-temps). do you know if the LC500R's remote control (rc-r9) is also capable to control other godox-lights shuch as the m1-pocketlight, the ml-60, and maybe other ones too? i think the godox non-bicolor LC500's remote (RC-A5) is compatible with quite a few other godox-lights, but I'm not shure wether it's capable of controlling the color-temperature at those other lights as well. it would be also nice to just get a universal-remote from a third-party manufacturer, but I think for 2.4 Ghz-standards such a solution is not possible :-/

    How do you turn off the LC500R remote? Remote keeps on draining the AAA batteries if I keep the light on for long periods when I have LC500R powered by adaptor. Dialing in specific numbers in RGB mode with remote doesn't seem to change the color. Any tips?

    The brightness levels mentioned by Godox for LC500 is 1200 lux at 1 meter while for LC500R it's 5800 at 1 meter. That's a considerable difference, and you getting lesser output from the R version is just confusing if Godox is misleading with their specifications.

    Using f-stops to measure continuous is strange. Normally use lux. Like f2 means nothing without knowing the distance, SS and ISO. I am assume a base ISO of 100 but shutter and distance? You don't mention it in the video and I can't find any info in your description.

    Would be great to see a comparison between the TL60 and the LC500R. Why would you choose one over the other?

  • @robhallphoto

    @robhallphoto

    3 жыл бұрын

    I would choose the TL60. More feature-rich, better app control, more modern design, better diffusion. The LC500R's benefits are...barndoors and price. Honestly, in hindsight, I don't understand why the LC500R was ever designed/released if they were already in the process of launching the TL60. With only a couple months in between them the LC500R just seems pointless, now.
