So, as your title states.. how does it compare to the sky panel? Is it as bright?

[@TylerEdwards]

The Nova p300c is my favorite light. Hope to add the 600 to the kit soon!

[@vincenzocondorelli4622]

Excellent review, very clear, time effective and well argumented. GHreat channel to follow

[@pablomarin1746]

Great light now is at U$ 2400 On sale I’m very tempted, How about fan noise for indoors interview, are they too loud?

[@davivalentefoto]

This is one revolutionary tool. Love using my NOVAs to light up Commercials and Music Videos

[@KingNP41]

So is it worth it having a bunch of them for lighting a studio cyclorama for Bi-Color and RGB? Or is the ARRI Skypanel the better choice

[@davivalentefoto]

@@KingNP41 always Aputure. The best option.

[@KingNP41]

@@davivalentefoto so go with an aputure panel light for lighting a cyclorama from overhead?

[@johndraus1044]

Any comparison of shadow softness to the Skypanel or Gemini, with the standard diffusion that comes with the fixtures?

[@anonymissed3611]

Good point! I had a rented S60, pointed at nearby wall and waived hand in front and saw almost zero shadow. Magical really.

[@sevillagroupstudio]

great review. Thank you. Also looking for a hard or soft case for the Nova 600. Any suggestions?

[@grahamesheldon1487]

The aputure rolling case isn’t shipping yet, but if the 300 case is any indication then the 600 case from Aputure is worth waiting for.

[@sevillagroupstudio]

Thank you. We ended up getting the Tenba Led 60 and it works for now. Take care

[@anonymissed3611]

4:20 Maybe removability of attached diffusion maximizes output to external frames..,..

[@anonymissed3611]

An obvious but seemingly unaddressed option.

[@kri8edmediagroup]

what case do you put it in? I've been looking for one

[@grahamesheldon1487]

I suggest waiting for the aputure rolling hard case (shipping soon). Right now I’ve been transporting it in the box it shipped in.

[@grahamesheldon1487]

Hi! apparently this case is shipping now…

[@AlmightyUniden]

@@grahamesheldon1487 yep! It's great!

[@anonymissed3611]

Compare softness as supplied.

[@DavidGriffin]

All I want is waterproof high powered lighting.

[@grahamesheldon1487]

Me too! This isn’t waterproof though :)

[@KallusGarnet]

These lights are too cheap to be waterproof

[@cagf2013]

Probably need a cream source for that.

[@pklemek]

Vortex8 is where it’s at. Ip65

[@grahamesheldon1487]

@@pklemek I work a bunch in California so I tend to not be in the middle of too many hail storms, but depending on your market you might need a high IP rating.

dude you need to learn how to inale and exale, this rythem is very displaising for a review, you don't sell carpet in the cable tv. 👎👎👎
