lights camera challenge this video is
being shot on sony a7 three with twenty
eight to seventy millimeter lens you can
find the link in the description box
below it is two thousand one hundred and
ninety eight dollars and here's the
challenge
I have only one battery to finish this
video
so the a7 three lasts for two hundred
minutes but usually I take a lot longer
than that to finish my videos the
battery on the a7 three is fully charged
and it is being drained as we speak the
video must have the usual segments like
the unboxing the comparison Beauty shot
the information but I will be using only
this camera so some of the angles would
may be missing but it's okay it's all
for science if the battery dies before I
finish the review the video ends there
and I have to upload it the way it is so
we all learn a lesson wait that's not a
good way wait I take that back
[Music]
this is app tears light said and in
total they cost fifteen hundred dollars
and this is one of the less I use to
light up the studio I use two of them
behind each umbrella one over there and
one over here and I have this lady up
here for the hair lights in total they
cost around two hundred dollars and I've
been using them for a really long time
since 2012
I actually just changed one Bob one ball
and they're ridiculously cheap but the
problem with these lights are they're
not dimmable and they produce a little
bit of heat and you may be thinking a
little bit of heat who cares about that
well I live in LA and it matters when
there's a heat wave because usually when
there's a heat wave
not only this place gets really hot but
my AC goes bro you're on your own but
enough about my AC let's unbox these
guys this is aperture LS mini 20 D I am
bucks these products before and then I
Reeboks them for the purpose of this
video so if they look like they've been
unboxed that is true because they've
been unboxed before I am planning to use
this light as hair and accent light yes
you got that right I was told that if I
use this light I will lose my accent I
cannot wait to use it now let's see
what's in the box some stickers power
cable USB connection cable it works with
USB hot shoe mount AC plug a clamp
another cable to connect it to another
aperture lights power adapter and here
is the light itself has nice barn doors
and you can use this and switch the
light from spot to flood and in spot
mode it produces 40,000 locks from 0.5
meters and I see what else is in here
some gels
and there's more there is more you get a
battery and a battery charger so if you
use the USB cable I can easily use a
power bank to power the light so here I
can see the dimmer in here I can see the
flood and spot adjustment sweats it's
pot and this is when it's set to flood
as you can see it is wider spot is
narrower and on top of that you can use
the barn doors
now it's anton box aperture ls1 see i
want to use this as the key light and
here it is this thing produces 2500
locks at 0 5 meter and you can adjust
the temperature between 3,200 K to 5500
K let's see what else is in the box
some diffusers some stickers some
information and warranty and in here
this is really cool you have this giant
thing that controls this light and it
can be connected to a DMX
also you can add a V battery to it and
it works with a remote that's really
cool I actually use these lights with
Siri it's connected to honk it let me
show it to you see turn the stage lights
off see turn the stage lights on so I
don't even have to lift a finger but
with this you can control 3 different
channels you can dim the lights and
change their temperature cables power
adapter these little clamps for the gels
some extra LEDs and I think this is
called the hook because here
oh yeah before we move on and update
about the challenge we are at 92% right
now
and it is pretty good I am panicking for
no reason 92% seriously I mean if you
use similar cameras before you know what
happens after a couple of minutes of
shooting this is going really well I
think I think we're gonna nail this
challenge and this is the aperture LS 1
over 2w very similar to the other lights
oh yeah this this is really pretty
once again speakers diffusers hook and
let's see what's in the box oh yeah very
similar controller to the other one but
the other one had this button here so
you can adjust the temperature
this light is only 5,500 K and it
produces 4000 locks at 0.5 meter so I'm
planning to use it as a fill light or
maybe not I don't know or maybe I'll
just hang them up there and just turn
them off the remotes and the cables and
that's it I know if I set these up by
themselves they are going to be a little
bit harsh so what I did was I got these
diffusers from Amazon you can find links
to these items in the description box
below and as you can see these are
foldable and unfold oval and it has
magnets here on the side you just put
the magnets in a proper angle angle and
then they just stay like that
okay now let's build one of the lights
of course these light stands I need to
change them because these are they're
basically toys they're very simple and
these lights are very heavy so I'm
probably gonna need proper light stands
for these turn it off turn it on and set
the brightness and you can set the
temperature it shows you the Kelvin
value and it can get pretty pretty
bright I mean let's compare it to this
this at 30% and on here I can see which
group channel 1 and group C so I'm gonna
use
channel one we've seen oh it also has
little antennas they're so cute and they
come next to you watch it together I can
change the temperature so how about how
about that diffuser I have and now I can
turn it on there you go
it's beautiful the build quality of
these lights are amazing and the color
temperature they produce is much more
accurate than the cheap bulbs I use you
can immediately tell that these lights
mean business they will give you the
flexibility you need for your shoots and
the LED lights don't produce any heat at
all which is something I love on the
other hand the hair light has a little
cooling fan that spins faster every once
in a while but I don't think my mics
will pick up that sound at all so I have
the hair light up here I attached this
for diffusing a little bit and those
soft boxes didn't work so I put
umbrellas back like this and like this
and this is how I mounted umbrellas I
have to fix that soon so now let's
compare this is before and this is after
this is before and this is after and
this is before and this is after which
one do you like better is it this one or
this one the old one or the new one Wow
and literally finishing each other and
right there
just like that Sony a7 threes battery
died I didn't even get a chance to show
you more about the new lights I didn't
even get to say good I'm just kidding we
still have a lot of battery left in the
camera that camera is ridiculous
I think these lights are great being
able to dim the lights is fantastic for
being able to create a mood I really
really like this and I can turn them off
and have a dramatic shot
what is a review so it is seriously good
but for this angle I think I need I
think I like my lights better also I
cannot use my Siri comment and turn on
and off the lights with this setup so I
feel like these lights are gonna be
great for the product shoots for the
beauty shots the close-ups and
everything especially that hair light
which by the way got rid of my accent so
good I cannot hear any accent anymore my
accent is completely gone

so what about the one battery one video
challenge what is the result
well after the video I did a photo shoot
by myself for the cover photo and I used
the camera for some more detail shots
and the battery didn't die by the way I
also spent a lot of time keeping the
camera on while it was connected to TV
via HDMI during adjusting and playing
around with the new lights well down
Sony well done
