This thing is just brilliant!
I am so happy I ordered this! Often, I have early morning meetings where I have no or low natural light. The room light is behind me which makes my face on the screen very dark. Even with natural light, when I turn this on, the face looks better. Also, I would strongly recommend, whatever option you chose, get two lights - the light is much more natural if it comes from both left and right (I put it on stands at left and right of my screen).
WHAT I LIKED:
- The white filter makes the light smooth, so it does not disturb you. All other options I tried had too disturbing light hitting my eyes.
- The intensity controls. No need for too bright light always. Different levels fit to different needs (I am using it on lower levels for video-conferences, but it seems to me strong levels are great for taking portrait photos).
- Two stands delivered are practical and make the whole package very much worth the cost.
- The stands are compatible with GoPro gear! So, with this purchase you are enriching your GoPro options.
- USB power. No need for batteries.
WHAT CAN BE BETTER (small things, nothing really important):
- Tripod looks quite lose. Too easily slips down. But, if you do not touch it, it's fine (once you set it up, why would you touch it, anyway).
- To provide some clip or other solution for those who want to attach it directly to the screen may be a good idea.
