Aputure 1200D Pro Review - How does the 600d Pro Compare

This is a late to the game review of the 1200d. I've had this light for about six months and have really enjoyed using it. In this review I show how it works in a couple of different scenarios: Exterior Day, Exterior Night, Interior Day and Super Slow Motion with a Phantom VEO 4K.
0:00 Intro

8:34 Interior Day
10:46 Exterior Day

Damn lookin good! Shaved the beard!

Thanks for the review. I find myself largely doing travel interviews now, so unlikely to pick up a 1200d at this point in time, but cool to see big lights becoming available that are actually pretty affordable. I remember the M18s being a big deal when they started showing up and replacing 2k and 1200 hmi's, and this being half (i think) the price of that seems incredible. I assume this is outputting closer to 1200hmi vs an M18, but still, you can have a few of these for the price of one m18 and it seems more portable as well.

Imagine the book lighting set up you could do with that thing.

What would be the better choice between the narrow beam and a F10 fresnel? Assuming the F10 fits the 1200D Pro.

[@myvideoversion]

The F10 does fit. I mean the narrow beam does come with the light. the F10 is focusable beam is really nice. I don’t know if I would say one is better just different use cases for each

​@@myvideoversion hi, i used F10 with 600x today on a cloudy day and it was fine imitating the sunset, but i had to set it really close to the actor, so 1200d would do a better job for this kind of situation, especially giving the fact that i wanted to take a wide establishing shot where the location would be colored by the "sunset", but in this case i would need to use a gel to make it warm but it would have burned the gel in an hour i suppose

[@jasp2003]

Can you put soft boxes on that thing? Or would they just melt?

[@myvideoversion]

Aputure has a list of approved softboxes
