Zhiyun Molus X100 Reviews

Forget it

By Alex

Light is powerful and pretty good. But battery is terrible it burned out pretty quickly and forget about getting in touch with zhyuin customer service. They never answer. Spare battery costs 120$. So that’s that.

This little powerhouse is absolutely incredible. Super portable, incredibly bright, and great color control. The included accessories are great, though I would suggest a larger softbox for most shoots.

Incredible light for the size. This thing puts out serious light. First the cons: The complaint I have about the X100 is color-wise, while the unit is between 1% and 10%, the color temp seems to be off. I don't have a meter to check this, but just scrolling through color temps slowly while the unit is pointed at a white card, it's obvious. 3200k will look 3200k, but 3600k will look 2700k. Same happens in the 6000k range, only cooler. Everything between 4300k and 5600k seem perfect. I want to be able to use this as an eye light without blinding people. Maybe my unit is defective. Also, one other thing is the mini softbox that came with the pro package, arrived broken. One of the the 'Rods used to hold open the SB must've been damaged during delivery. Not really a problem, just a headache. I'm in contact with Zhiyun now for a replacement. And the included reflector it comes with doesn't com with a diffuser. I believe they include the with the x60. Bulky AC adapter. Pros: Zhiyun battery pack life was a surprising 29 minutes at 80% on dimmer @100 watts when I tested. Size- this light can be put anywhere. It's like two iPhones stacked on each other. Fan is really quiet. Can run off any camera battery via P-tap to USB-C, though at 60 watts I believe. I also bought a 100w pd charger and 100w capable cable to bypass bulky 120v adapter Zhiyun supplies. Price could have been $50 less I think, but I bought it anyway. I want to love this light but I just can't trust the color as aforementioned. Still, I give it 4 stars.
