Question Inexpensive video light? - 03-15-2011, 03:46 PM


I need some suggestions for inexpensive video lighting for a friend of mine who manages a gym. He has a tight budget so it has to be low in price but not necessarily cheap in quality... if there's any such thing. :) Open to DIY options as well.

I purchased a 160 LED Light Panel with a dimmable feature off of eBay from one of the Chinese Sellers for $69.oo (shipping included) It came with a pouch that had a warming filter, a blue filter and a diffusing filter. It also had an adjustable "goose neck" that could be attached on top of a hot shoe (such as what you would find on a DSLR and some camcorders). Accepts 6 AA's or a Sony type of Lithium Ion Battery. Last up to 4 hours at FULL POWER with AA's..... JUST AWESOME!!!
Basically, it's this exact unit.....
