Today's digital still cameras have the ability to take excellent videos and movies. The problem is that the unit is only provided with a flash unit at best, which only works for a split-second. When taking videos, you need a light to come on and stay on. CameraBright lights are designed to turn on and stay on while you take your video. The advanced technology built into every CameraBright light ensures continuous, simple, single button operation; push the button once to turn the unit on, and push the button again to turn the unit off. If you forget to turn the unit off, it will turn itself off in a matter of minutes, thereby ensuring a great video next time.

This Extended Range Version provides a narrower beam that has an effective illumination range almost twice that of the other versions (up to 20').

You can stack up to 3 units to meet the needs of a variety of shooting situations. The CamerBright X1-ER can also be tripod mounted. Battery life for these units is approximately 4 hours.

Take better pictures or videos at night
CameraBright light's advanced white light LED technology allows a fuller spectrum of light to illuminate your exciting moments in low or no-light conditions.
Connects to virtually any camera or camcorder
If your camera or camcorder can connect to a tripod, then it can connect to a CameraBright light and still connect to your tripod.
Reduces Redeye
Some of today's modern cameras have a small intermittent light that comes on just before taking a picture, which is intended to reduce redeye. This current solution is typically inadequate and less effective with larger groups or longer distances. CameraBright lights work with your camera's existing technology and almost entirely eliminate redeye in most cases. Say good bye to retouching your pictures after they have been developed.
Improved picture quality with your existing flash
If you are using your camera in a low or no-light situation with a CameraBright light, you can "see" what you are taking a picture of, therefore eliminating the need to take many pictures hoping to get everybody in the shot or hoping they were all looking at the camera. Use the CameraBright light to set your picture up, and when you snap the perfect picture, the flash will go off just as normal.
Easy on, Easy off
With a simple thumbwheel mounted on the back of the unit, simply rotate one way to connect to your camera or camcorder, and then rotate the other way to disconnect, but with CameraBright light's compact design and huge benefits, you will never want to take it off again.

        Comments about CameraBright X1-ER Extended Range Digital/Video Camera Light (Black):

        Good when light is minimal to shoot a persons face. I put some frost in front of mine to smooth out the light. It will not light up a room but is handy when you shoot close ups.I have it mounted on a Kodak Zi8, its helps in the dark and in very low light,I guess its a must have unless you shoot in daytime only.
