Cheap Light Bulbs for Photography and Video

[@kodave1188]

Did anyone notice. That this channel. No ads at all. What a generous man. Thumbs up for you Mark. This is an expensive lesson/tutorial. Thanks

[@cilginflix]

u can also notice, no one bought memberships. not fair.

[@PesquisasMormonas]

@@cilginflix It's the hair

[@InfoGuerra]

Loved the interaction between you guys. It was funny. I used clamps with lightbulbs up to my firts 150k subscribers. Now I use pro lights. Not much difference.

[@TedAldwin]

This type of contents always fascinates me. Using inexpensive items to achieve great results are amazing! I’m using a cheap lighting set up as well.

[@leonarddavis8449]

Your videos are so helpful for people starting out on photography and film making, especially when they see someone as talented as you using inexpensive gear to be creative. Well done.

[@ohme357]

Thanks Markus!!!!!!!!!! I'm getting back into videography and photography. I'm literally starting all over from scratch. I bought the Lumix S1 with the firmware 2.0 upgrade to somewhat future proof my camera. That being said, I'm taking your advice and learn how to be a better shooter and just shoot in 1920X1080. I'm not making a motion picture, shooting for web content is my general goal for outputting to the masses. Spending tons of money is not the answer and thank you for teaching me that in terms of this discipline. I watch your other videos outside of the photography world as well. You're a very cool guy. Anyone who is your friend is blessed to have you in their life You're a very special person. Looking forward to your White Balance video. I want to do right!!!!!

[@planning_with_patches5860]

I'm glad your doing a white balance video soon. Love your channel!

[@johnakridge2916]

You are a very legit person to watch for camera work. I haven't seen many others.

[@realnikonlover6207]

Homerun! Great video. The learning curve is easy and the Cara eye candy and interaction with her favorite super hero is superb. Good show ol' boy and girl!

[@bordermayorsbeat6528]

Very helpful lighting comparison coupled with some very endearing, wholesome insights by Cara..Great Stuff!

[@hiddenbear5306]

The man that shows that you don't need a small fortune to get greate effects, you just simply need to be more creative and that's save a lot of money for a begginer, like me. Keep that type of stuff Mr.Markus.

[@TerryWindell]

Another great one! Love seeing you two having fun and living life!

[@MarshallCant]

Markus: Saturday mornings wouldn't be complete without watching your videos. Really enjoy them. Have a great week.

[@tharzz3]

Ok, sooo funny with the rambunctious model! Love that you kept this informative video funny! Laughed out loud twice! I also agree Phillips light killed it! Who would have known!? Thanks again!❤️👍

[@atrbear]

Thank you Markus for being so real and practical despite your obvious resources that you worked so hard to achieve.

[@tomn.9610]

Great knowledge and great humor make you one of the best on KZbin !!!!!!!!

[@IslandFilmMaker]

Well done! Great comparison Markus! Yeah to the SUPER MODEL!! LED lighting is getting very cost efficient if your EGO doesn't get in the way!!! Thx :)

[@theboyscanswim5619]

Thanks for sharing the subtle back and forth of the couple. This video is great! Funny and informative.

[@IAMHOPFROG]

This guy is awesome. A lot people who primarily do talking head type of videos try to sell you a "budget" kit through a link. Markus is a working professional. He knows what works and doesn't have to sell us anything.

[@be4fourty]

Thanks you two!! So refreshing to get good info from decent people! Thanks again please keep sharing

[@HandlewithcareVibes]

Always a pleasure to watch, your joy is contagious

[@asihankhang7579]

Lovely Marcus as always, I use IKEA's MUSIK lamp track where you can put five philips lightbulbs as showed in your video, good about this is one switch control can control five lights at once. and they are vertical, very easy to fix on to your lighting stands. Thanks

[@Zzfoto]

😆😃🤩😄❤️💯🎯 i laughed to tears....you two are beautiful couple, this was hillarious... Beautifull energy between U2...was amuzing pozitive laughing video.....I enjoyed this one in energy and in knowladge. I love that you have full magazine of all possible (also expencive gear) BUT you always look with your engeniring inventor soul to make cheap things work same or even better. Im not a fanboy of a chanal, but somehow with such video...am getting there :) love to watch you,when I watch you....and then as usually, I hit you 👍🏼 in first 4 seconds of watching. You dont dissapoint. Schonne grusse zum ihr beide und ich wunsche noch viell viell spass und alles bestens fur ihr beide zussammen. 👍🏼🔝

[@benkotowicz174]

Really good video Markus! Enlightening! You're the Best!

[@Joe-mg6pj]

Fun comparisons... I watched the entire video... I have to agree the Phillips LED in the clamp light is amazing! I look forward to next weeks video!!!

[@oo0RECON0oo]

Love your videos, always have to tune in because it’s always a different topic and a different cool and informative complete take on it with examples. Great videos guys. You both are awesome.

[@redantdc]

great info , i was just about to replace some old curly fluorescent bulbs that had broken with new leds . Cara's interactions with you... very cute, you could probably do a channel on relationship advice for young creator couples. Video business has its own set of challenges unique to these kinds of families... price of gear and as the filmmakers continual need to aquire more gear vs familiy budget.. family time vs filmmaking time. etc etc

[@MarkusPix]

[@VintageInsightPhotography]

Great stuff here! Right with you about being cheap. Those Phillips bulbs had a great color tone. Looked the best of all the bulbs.

[@local130]

You two are so cute and funny! Another hit Markus!

[@DarkStoneCastle]

Ready for the white balancing video. 👍

[@trevtog]

The comparison is great but I love this more because of your amazing model and how much fun you two are together ❤️

[@FabiokiOjedaBuitrago]

This time, not only innformative and well produced, but with a cute touch! Thank you!!

[@humbertocares8385]

What a Beautiful and lovely couple...

[@bthurmond]

Markus, thanks for another delightful, useful video. Always informative and so much fun. I both the clamp lights after that video and purchased the Phillips bulbs before I saw this one. Cheap is good!

[@hellopsp180]

This video was great. Hahaha I love the interaction between you and your model :D

[@markus8282]

Nice to see both of you again today :-)

[@anyuisbjoern]

Huge Big Thanks 🙏🏻 Marcus!!!!!!

[@SirTools]

I can't find my red shirt with white palm trees in my closet. Markus ! is that my shirt your wearing ??? The 100w LEDs looked very good and gave you about the same natural looking lighting. Temperature wise I like the 4000 for softer, but the 6500 range mixed with 4000 is my favorite to get good light LED mix. Once again, thanks for posting this Markus.

[@bugmanmd1576]

great to see the interaction between you two. ...you guys are a BLAST! thanks so much for your great channel. 👍😁

[@PaulWilliamsPhotography]

Great vid as always mate! Your correction of Cara's bonkers theory about what white balance is and how it's done, was comedy gold! LOL! :-)

[@RizandroNapone]

Markus, as a photographer im jealous of you. You have got it made man. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us--without the ads!

[@MarkusPix]

My pleasure!

[@rudolfabelin383]

Thanks! This so good knowledge for us learners. Love to you and Cara from Sweden!

[@grantmedical]

Thank You so much Markus! Truly appreciate your generous sharing of your knowledge!!!

[@keeturned40]

I’ve been following the tow of you for years for health information 😊 this video is right on time as I’m starting to improve my KZbin lighting setup.

[@michaelbower4506]

Only recently subscribed to your channel...... Absolutely love it! So informative! Thank you!

[@TheWanderingPhotographer]

Always enjoy your videos on lighting, lots of dark days in this part of the world,

[@achecase]

What a great couple!

[@BornAgainFarmGirl]

Great content Markus & Cara with fun creators , I love it !

[@ByronScottJones]

Great video! I've also been buying the cheap RGB bulbs that come with a little app that let's you pick the color. I can get each bulb for about 6 dollars at Walmart. So far I have 8 of them

[@StephenFI]

Very nice Sir, I am looking forward to your video on white balance.

[@Wavetechlifeguardian]

So good, funny too! I love that spiral LED bulb the best. I am going to try those out... And go to Home Depot and pick up a bunch of other cheap lighting! Thanks!

[@Sir-Kay]

"Hey! Imma model". The interaction is cool.

[@DrWasim]

These videos are so inspiring, helpful AND entertaining at the same time. I love this channel, and I love you guys!

[@glenntrevor932]

Hi Markus, You are so right ,expensive is not always better, use basic cheap gear and enjoy it more, Glenn from Perth, Australia.

[@WoodenCreationz]

Went out and bought some and they work great!!! Thank you!!!

[@Thesamuelduke]

Love the knowledge that you pass on Markus!

[@glenbeaubouef6268]

Don't know why I go anywhere else. You have all the answers. Thank you!

[@MarkusPix]

Well thank YOU bearded guy

[@LaVoz4k]

Gracias Markus , you inspire me to create amazing videos with less money

[@crazygeorgelincoln]

Love the impromptu vacuum review, I made myself a anamorphic lens adapter out of parts and materials that cost less than a Philips light bulb in about an hour while filming the process. Filming in.my workshop studio is like practicing archery in a shower cubicle.

[@lunara69]

I use same Philips bulbs In my studio. They GREAT!

[@WesleyClouden]

been doing this for a while the Phillips are 94.1 cri from my testing. last year . Then there are these 98+ CRI bulbs i been using that also got on amazon in 80watt flood 900 Lumens and 100 watt in a 1200 lumens per build from brand called J & Case check them out comes 6 - 12 per pack

[@GarretGrayCamera]

A lot has changed in the lightbulb world since this video. This inspired me to make my own cheap lights. I’ve got a 5 bulb head that I’m putting in 5 100 watt equivalent bulbs. They each are only 11watts pulling near 5 amps. The bulbs can be dimmed and color temp changeable through an app. Got a soft box that will hopefully fit. I’m excited to see how they turn out. I figure I’m saving like over a thousand bucks instead of buying 2 500 watt equivalent lights. I’m spending $250. Yeah they won’t look as pretty

[@novakordz3928]

Perfect thanks Markus I will chose one of these lamps for my custom build clip lamp. Great help thanks for the time on this!

[@seanmuller5145]

Thanks again for a great video for a hobbyist Photagrapher

[@nimaj21]

one of my fav professors on youtube university! oh captain, my captain!

[@ericalvarez9345]

I have become obsessed with lighting since watching your videos and have been enjoying your series on lighting so far. Looking forward to the white balance video. Will you at one point cover your general camera settings as well under different lighting conditions?

[@ArminHirmer]

Awesome as always. A question Marcus, as it seems that you have almost all small cameras: do you this Sony qx1 thing for mobile phone? If yes, would you be willing to get rid of?

[@danielmasters8145]

Your videos are inspirational.

[@PioneerMountainHomestead]

Great video as always! You two are so super cute together! 💗

[@mluckphoto]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge Markus!!

[@sidneyclark4952]

Y’all are funny as hell! I really enjoyed it

[@jimtipton8888]

Thanks to both of you! Always enjoy watching and I actually learned something I can use! Cheers!

[@mirandasworld]

thank you for keeping it simple and easy for beginners instead of the over complex ridiculous stuff:)

[@kylezanika293]

Another awesome Markus video. Thank you for all this great info, you just saved me a ton of cash.

[@SupraheadStudio]

SO MUCH LOVE AND TRUTH ON THIS VIDEO :):):): THANK YOU !!!!

[@kh1188ish]

I’m upset. I’ve spent hours looking for the sigma f40 and can’t find it, guess I’ll have to settle for the godox lens. Pure awesomeness! 😄

[@FilmSpook]

Infinite Thanks, brother!!! Huge money-saving ideas here!!! Much love and appreciation for you and Cara. ☮️

[@CrossStCroix]

Great stuff, Markus. I really appreciate you testing stuff we may not be able to. Thanks for the info. Also, enjoyed the banter 🙂

[@FreyaKennafr]

I love the 120d but i wonder did i buy them because of the storage case because they look cool to drag out. I think the next time we go and do a shoot im going to put our old light stands and our clamp lights because they do they same but i still like the storage boxes a lot 🤣🙃🤩 i just never use them if it is just me messing around taking pictures

[@MarkusPix]

I have so many Aputure and Godox soft fabric storage boxes they take up so much space but I dont want to get rid of them, they are too nice. I'll probably never use them lol.

[@MrRossmeldrum]

I loved that. ' I bought a vacume and it did not suck.' Does that mean its good or bad? lol Love this video though. Lighting is really trial and error. I don't think there are rules. When I was learning we used a fill, key and backlight. When I worked on film I'd see the professionals reflect natural light off massive sheets of Polystyrene that became sails if it got a bid windy. Living in Scotland. It always got windy lol. Lee Lighting were a great crew though. They even let me help with the rigging of a Wendy Light one time. It was like Gods spotlight and when we slowly let it heat up to power a beatiful white horse came and stood under it. That was 1996 and we didn't all have a camera in our pockets but I snapped that image in my memory.

[@PickinPins]

Haha You guys are Great ! 👍 Love everything you put out Marcus!

[@alphaskwurl]

Nutty how much better the Phillips looks honestly

[@tonytfuntek3262]

You guys are fun to watch and very informative...Thank you

[@biffbayberry8070]

YES YES YES!!! Cheap LED bulbs are GREAT! Back in film days, you matched your light source to the film stock (incandescent, daylight, fluorescent) and NEVER mixed light colors. These days, any light source works because digital white balance can adjust on the fly!

[@pictureeyecandy]

Nice, way to show cheap will work. Yall make it fun and exciting every time.🙏 ps using Yall kind of shows my mountain word of West Virginia (Mom side) but only live my whole life in Virginia near Richmond LOL

[@xjet]

What color temperature were the bulbs you were using. Although you can adjust WB for the color of your light source it can make a difference to the relative brightness of some colors (in my experience).

[@MarkusPix]

They vary between 5k-6k

[@xjet]

@@MarkusPix Thanks Markus, by the way... this is a truly excellent channel and your content is great!

[@jimtipton8888]

Good question!

[@angelika77st]

Wow. Thank you for this lesson. I learned a lot. 🥰👋🏻

[@GerritSchulze]

I've just learned what rambunctious really means thanks to you two!

[@AdventureswithRoger]

Always a joy to watch!

[@RT365]

Awesome video once again. Those light temperatures are chilling. LOL

[@HaraldEngels]

I love you guys :-) And what about the video topic itself? Markus never disappoints!!!

[@Abhshkraj]

Great video again, so much info. You are a great teacher, respects to you both :) I would love to see you make a self shot short film, like those 1 or 2 minute types.

[@sonwabisedzidzi]

This video feels so good 😂. Reminds me of movies from the early 2000s

[@TromboneTordu]

Merci Markus! Très inspirant de voir que l'on peut faire de belles photos ou vidéos avec des ampoules à si bas prix. Tes vidéos sont très inspirant pour moi. Merci!

[@MarkusPix]

Merci Jonathan

[@giannagiavelli5098]

to my eyes the spiral is best one! the phillips are great.

[@alphaskwurl]

You guys are too comical :) Gotta be honest, I curled up in a ball and shed a single tear as soon as I heard the word "Sun". It hurt a little. Sorta like that poor sensor

[@DIYmodaconEmíl]

Good help Cara, always helpful 🙂

[@balajiHN24]

Light n chemistry is awesome 🙏🙏

[@erickbrown5385]

The minimal electrical draw of the modern LED lightbulb is another good selling point. I have an older house and my studio is located in an outbuilding that has only a few amps feeding it, through one little wire buried in the yard. With these LED bulbs I can brighten up the room, without upgrading my electrical service. (a 10K job.). I've also put these into my print/ editing room to get the proper white balance and brighten up the print viewing area so I an really see what the prints look like. These cheap bulbs rock!

[@MarkusPix]

A single solar panel and a battery could make that LED lighting automatic 😊

[@Michellekdoria]

Thank you so much! Ive been looking for alternatives!

[@Jakeoni]

Useful advice as I shoot for a hobby and love to find other ways to control light. next video you should show how to convert those to a portable setup to bring out in the field.
