Bescor XT160 Reviews

Good little lights.

By Emmanuel
Rated 4 out of 5
Date: 2020-10-01

They do what they are supposed to do. The stands are a bit on the cheap side but the lights give a fair amount of brightness and they are dimmable. For that price, it's worth it.

Excellent for telecommunting or streaming

I use these for my telecommuting job and meetings. I can control the color and power of these LED lights. Besides, it comes with filters that allows you to regulate the color besides the built-in buttons. And the tripods are sturdy and light.

The Bescor XT160 Bi-Color LED On-Camera 2-Light Kit with Stands and AC Adapters does not have a USB-C port for power delivery, but it does have a DC port which may allow you to use power delivery from a battery with a D-tap to DC cable like the Kondor Blue Coiled D-Tap to Locking DC 2.1mm Right-Angle Cable (16 to 32").

How many watt is this?
Asked by: Adesola
LED lights work a bit differently when it comes to watts as a basis of brightness, but according to the photometrics, at 3900K this light will be the equivalent of 250W tungsten equivalent.

Is it possible to buy additional light filters for this? Specifically darker ones. These are almost too bright at their lowest setting for my night photography project.
Asked by: William
Unfortunately, we don't have more filters that would be able to be attached to the light.
