Hello I'm Graham and I hope everyone's having a great day and welcome to my
review of the new 64 LED matrix light for the Godox 8200 flash unit
now this flashing it has a Fraggle xenon flash head or you can switch that
out and for a bare bulb unit so quite a versatile unit for studio flash
photography the fresnel xenon head has its own inbuilt modeling light but
they're not very strong if I just turn on the modeling light you can see that
they're not very bright and if you try to use that in an umbrella or a shoe
thrown umbrella there's just not enough power in those lights to enable you to
see how the modeling would be so the inclusion of those in the flash head is
by the way they're not really sufficient for any purpose no God except just
brought out the ADL which is a 64 LED matrix which will fit on front of the ad
200 plus unit and provide you with a LED light now the output power of this is
3.6 wor so it's not very bright in terms of exposure my studio lights at the
moment to set up to give me an exposure of 150 per second at F 5.6 with ISO 320
so that's two LED light panels about nine feet away now if I switch out the
xenon head and install the 82 the ADL LED light unit again you can adjust the
intensity by the either the control wheel on the back or by depressing the
power button on the right hand side there are three levels of intensity so
at low medium and high now on the high setting we've got about the same
exposure at about a meter away so if I just point this towards myself from one
meter away which is there and I turn off my studio lights so the exposures now
coming from that 64 LED matrix so again it's quite a point-source
the further away obviously inverse square law are you're going to lose a
lot more Expo so if you're going to use it this close
you can use it for maybe running gun type interviews you could use it as a
hair light or if you were doing product photography fairly close to the subject
you might be able to get away with it we're giving that rapper own light and
softer shadows so that's the power intensity from this light so if I just
bring on the studio lights again again the light can be turned on and off by
using the double click on the channel button of your go Doc's transmitter so
there we are that is the ad l 64 matrix LED light comes temperature-wise I've
measured at just over 5100 Kelvin and again the output is about 150 to the 2nd
F 5.6 at ISO 320 when the unit is one meter away again the front of this unit
has the necessary clips to take the go Doc's barn doors or the color filter kit
so if you wanted to use up for your product photography and enhanced color
effects again the barn doors don't have much effect on this because of the
spread of the LED lights themselves now the price of this ADL is quite cheap
it's about 20 pounds in the UK 24 dollars in the USA
you can modify this and I'll be doing a video to show you how to do that
so you can use this as a standalone LED light panel powered from a small USB
power bank so it means you can use it remote from the ad 200 flash it could
use it as a fill light or backlight and an accent light - hair lights you could
use it in vehicle to give some sort of lighting effect so I'll be doing a short
video on how to modify this very easy modification and it's very quick to do
as well so I look forward to bringing you that well that's it for the review
of the ADL 64 matrix LED light for the go ducks ad 200 unit as usual thanks
very much for watching please do check out my photographic blog if you've not
seen that before I'll put a link to it in the video description below so as
usual thanks very much for watching please do take care and I'll see you all
hopefully in the next video good bye for now
