The trajectory of LEDs has been pretty significant as they\u2019re pretty much the industry standard for using lights on productions now. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks to a few key players in the light manufacturing space, small, affordable, powerful <a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/aptolux-launches-aptolux-mp1\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">LED lights<\/a> are now more accessible and capable than ever before. Whether you need them for background fill, a subtle eye light, or to add some color to your shot, there are plenty of options that won\u2019t completely blow your budget for your next shoot. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s talk about some options!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"aputure-mc\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Aputure MC<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/aIvk2N0iPJQ?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>My personal favorite light on this list, the Aputure MC is a \u201ccredit card\u201d sized light that can fill pretty much any role you need it to. You can choose any color temperature in the MC\u2019s bi-color range between 3200K-6500K and 100 levels of saturation adjustment. It also comes with its own diffusion case that serves as a decent built-in level of diffusion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As an added bonus, the back of the light is magnetized so I usually find somewhere to stick it and avoid having to use a stand or any other type of clamp. This light accompanies me on every shoot and I can\u2019t imagine not having it in my Pelican.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can control the app through Aputure\u2019s Sidus link app, and from my recent experiences using the app on shoots, it still works really well\u2014I had no problems with connections or lagging at all.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/shop.aputure.com\/products\/mc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">purchase here: $90<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"lume-cube-rgb-panel-pro\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Lume Cube RGB Panel Pro<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/NyDfC8ablXw?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If I had to put this light in a particular category of video production, it would most likely be event videography. Whether you\u2019re <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shutterstock.com\/blog\/wedding-design-trends\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">shooting weddings<\/a> or corporate events, attaching this on top of your camera\u2019s cage while going handheld is the ideal move. In terms of power, the light features 263 LEDs with 1000 Lumen output.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re vlogging or making any type of YouTube content, this would be perfect for background lighting. You can set this to be whatever color you want to fit the theme of the video you\u2019re shooting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Perhaps the most notable detail this light has going for it is the versatility and the battery life. The reason I mentioned event videography is due to the battery being able to withstand up to 4 hours at 50% brightness and 2.5 hours at 100% brightness. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Similar to the Aputure MC, this mini light can be controlled via Lume Cube\u2019s smartphone app.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/lumecube.com\/products\/panel-pro\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">purchase here: $179.99<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"nanlite-lumipad-11\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nanlite LumiPad 11<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/iSrOMs2W_YQ?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Nanlite is quickly becoming one of my favorite light companies. The Forza series of spotlights are right up there with Aputure\u2019s lineup\u2014reliable, powerful, and cheap(ish). It should come as no surprise that their smaller offerings are just as impactful. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Their LumiPad 11 is a whopping 1.4 inches thick and weighs just .6lbs, making it the perfect light for any type of quick setup or event videography that you might be shooting. While this light won\u2019t ever be a \u201ckey\u201d light replacement, it fills that gap for a fill or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/backlighting-your-subject\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">back light<\/a> and it does the job exceptionally well.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nanlite is an exceptional brand and offering practical, powerful lights for reasonable prices while also consistently innovating the lineup they have is something worth supporting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, they offer great warranties on all of their products.

The light excels with any type of production that requires a fast paced shooting schedule with little to no setup time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The light is powered by an internal Li-ion battery, and can run for 65 minutes at full brightness. It has an adjustable color temperature from 7500-2700K with green to magenta adjustment and a CRI of 98.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, if you need to quickly set up an interview, this light will ideally be able to operate at full capacity for the length of the interview or talking head shot\u2014giving you a warm, cool, or specific color to enhance the overall quality of your shot. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To make it even better, there are built-in programmable effects, like the standard cop car, flame, lightning, camera flashes and \u201cexplosions.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These types of lights (PavoTube II 6C and Aputure MT Pro) are perfect for carrying with you at all times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/nanliteus.com\/nanlite-pavotube-ii-6c-10in-6w-rgbww-led-tube-with-internal-battery\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Purchase here: $89<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"amaran-al-mx\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Amaran AL-MX&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/dC4-pznM2ag?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This bi-color tank of a light is what I like to call \u201cthe brick.\u201d It&#8217;s a little heavy but in terms of needing a light that can handle just about any situation\u2014this is it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How bright can it get?
