Ugh... options keep popping up. I know that these lights (Falcon Eyes RX-18TDX II) are pretty much as budget as things go, but the versatility of them goes through the roof. Water proof, magnet capable, bi-color with remote. Possible to hang it on a C-stand with a really long arm or just tape it to the ceiling as well as VFX mode.
Not sure about the CRI quality and stuff, but man, for that price you get a whole of a lot of creative choices. You can basically do a lightning storm inside a room with these using VFX mode and some smoke.
Was thinking about the UL150 since it's totally silent, but with a softbox and stuff you get so limited. Especially when I'm mostly doing lighting that's based on practical sources, meaning, increasing light from a candle light or increasing the intensity of a soft window and stuff. Like we used to do with kinos over windows. The Falconeyes feels like an extremely cheap knockoff type of flexible LED, but I've heard some good words on it by gaffers so I'm even more confused now as to what to get. Having two of these and two C-stands really gives a lot of choices.
Anyone tried them?
Not me, I myself am curious about these two..
