GVM SD300D Reviews

Great light

Easy to use and set up. Great light for both photography and videographers.

Not Quite As Presented....

By Douglas

Let me start by saying I basically like these fixtures. Build quality is on par or better with the price. Stands are a bit lightweight, and don't fold up in an intuitive manner, but OK. Cases are nice. The real problem I have with them is this. They are presented as a 300W fixture, by some standard. OK They are bright enough, except for when you want them full on bright. Their intensity is adjustable as is the color balance. Run them up to 100% intensity and they will shut down due to heat. Manufacturer and B&H suggest that is a feature, not a flaw. Not OK. In my discussion with both, they said if I really wanted 300W I should have bought the SD600D fixture, and run it at 50%.... really? So buyer beware, nice lights, fundamentally good value, but if you want all that you expect out of these, buy the bigger version so you won't be disappointed. Run them all day at 90% output, they are fine. And if you wonder, they are whisper quiet... guess a louder fan might take care of the heat problem, I don't know...

What tungsten wattage is this equal too?
Asked by: Thomas
The output of this light would be similar to that of a 1000W tungsten light. But LED is measured in lumens and the light output falls off differently than a tungsten fixture. This light delivers 5258.1 fc / 56,600 Lux at 3.3' / 1 m
