Smith-Victor LadyBug 500 Reviews

Fantastic, useful and a great deal

By Stephen
Rated 5 out of 5

After searching for sometime we finally found a light source that not only is affordable but is also great to work with, powerful and adjustable. We use five of these lights with our green screen video work as well as for our commercial product shoots. The adjustable brightness allows us to use them for our Key light as well as background illumination and foreground subject work. I highly recommend these!!

Wonderful lights for painting

Excellent product and the portability is a huge plus. The case also makes storage possible.

Is the S&V Lady Bug Really 500W out put. seems High for only having 130 LEDs. Are They High Out put?
Asked by: Aron
At 9', the light put out f/5.6 on a white wall. Conversely, a 500-watt Lowel Omnilight put out f/5.6 at 14'. The Omni was in flood mode.
