Thank you for this side-by-side comparison. Each light gives context to the other this way and makes comparing them, for me, easier. Plus, I really appreciate your perspective of exact uses or reasons why each light can be used by specific creators. There are times I can go with saving a few dollars (my preference to stretch my dollars) when something has less than its competition when it does not impact my use of that product, and other times when I have specific needs where I cannot cut corners. Your Soundstripe skit was also clever and entertaining, and so well done.

[@FellowFilmmaker]

Appreciate the insight :D And glad you enjoyed the skit

[@ayansinghh]

Hi, I would like you to create a video comparing lights from Aputure, Nanlite, Godox, and Zhiyun that have the same wattage. I want to see if the high prices charged by these major companies are justified or not.

[@ZhiyunTechGlobal]

Nice review and comparison, Heather, very helpful information for creators. We will also keep launching more nice, reliable and affordable models out of our Cinepeer product line to benefit more creators of different needs. 😃

[@northpointstudiony]

fix your freaking app. The Molus x100 disconnects with the app when the phone screen goes on stand by. Make a physical controller or something.

[@abbasnakhlband9411]

I wish you compared the brightnesses without the reflector! Since Molus has a hotspot

[@FellowFilmmaker]

I considered it, but generally speaking when most people use these lights it'll be with the reflector likely.

[@lightsequilla6938]

The only reason I might consider the Colbor is because the product trailer revealed that there might be a mini spotlight mount for it coming soon. Thank you for the video.

[@FellowFilmmaker]

Oooh neat :D

[@colborlight]

Hey! Thanks! Stay tuned dear! We're working on it🥰

[@savagetales-music]

I loved the skit. Bob was awesome. Great video all around

[@FellowFilmmaker]

Thanks so much

[@NeilEvery]

I have the Colbor X60 (an eBay steal!) and it's pretty decent. I'm really on the fence with all of Zhiyun's lights unfortunately. I've seen a lot of negative reviews or updated reviews calling out reliability issues. A lot of users who have had their lights randomly die after just a month or two. Add to that atrocious customer service and it's hard to take the plunge.

[@FellowFilmmaker]

You may have been hearing about the issues with the battery on the x100. Since then they have issues a statement and are replacing everyone's batteries for free along with sending out all new units with new batteries that dont' die. Hope that helps! I talked about it in a recent video, I think the RGB60 review I did

[@dirtykraut]

Yes, they replaced my Bad battery and i recieved it very fast. I would still recommend getting the x100 without the battery, just use a v-mount with usb c output, price for the two Things together is comparable and a v-mount is always useful. The x100 is quite heavy for its size with the battery attached, and with a cable the included onw only provides 30 Watts. This x100 is i think the best value of all this pocket lights. I would stay away from the molus g60, not as well made not benefits. The App for this Lights is awfum, like most Apps, waiting when it's loosing connction you need to fiddel around... who has time for doing so.

[@freakytechreviews]

With that mini softbox either of these would make an excellent hair light.

[@FellowFilmmaker]

so true! I did use the mini softbox on one of them in my skit in this video

[@wv5959]

Regarding the X100: It seems that USB-C mode will allow much less power! How‘s that actually with the G60?

[@RyanTroy]

before my comment get lost can you please tell me where you got the white padding designs on the wall? that has the tree next to it? im sure it may be for sound but i would really like to purchase it

[@FellowFilmmaker]

sure thing, here it is: amzn.to/3wkUf9f It's 3d plastic wall paneling Looks cool when you light it

[@HighlyTheoretical]

I went completely left field and got the YIDOBLO ZC-100BI 100W for $150. I Really don't undertand why the cx-100's battery isn't removable & not being able to use npf batteries is criminal.

[@GeologyDude]

Thanks much for the comparison. It's very helpful. These portable/battery-capable COB lights are fairly new. Do you see a major increase in 100+W COB lights available in the coming year of two? I've just bought four C60B Sirui lights, and hope to use them to lift shadows for outdoor use--on large boulders, rock exposures (during the dreary winters in Seattle), and in caves. I know the 60W power is rather low, but I need multiple lights that are portable. I'm sure that much more powerful lights will be needed in the future. But I need to experiment to see what works. Photogrammetry often works best on cloudy days.

[@vonpotatostein]

thank you so much!! you can't even begin to imagine how grateful I'm for all the advice and reviews you give here in your channel!!Love the heist bit and SKITTLES IS SO CUTE!!!! I have a silly question: the mount on the Colbor seems like the FM (mini bowens mount) on the Nanlite FS60, Forza 60/150, would you mind checking if the accesories are compatible between 'em please :D?

[@colborlight]

Hi dear, yes, the mout on COLBOR is compatible with the FM on the Forza 60/150

[@LepapaWu]

Always keeping professional video, it very useful ! ! :) ❤

[@FellowFilmmaker]

Happy to hear that!

[@colborlight]

Thank you again for another amazing video!😘

[@gecanlapan7964]

i like your tripod so cute where can i get it?

[@PhilipRanson-d5t]

You really are having fun with your videos,I like.thanks for the information very helpful,say hi to bob.

[@FellowFilmmaker]

Lol yes! Having fun is important :D

[@erickpro]

what is "live mode" ?

[@ptoze]

Can you explain me the difference between live mode and normal mode of the x100?

[@FellowFilmmaker]

Certainly. Live mode keeps the light in the on position essentially. So if it unplugs from power and someone plugs it back in it will turn back on 'automatically' rather than having to find the power button to turn it on. It's great for studios because you can setup those type of lights up to all be controlled from a main switch of sorts.

[@ptoze]

@@FellowFilmmaker thanks for the explanation

[@sherlockmaverick]

How on earth did you achieve compositing her hair in at 2:37?! I thought it'd be framing separation or clipping, but there was neither!

[@FellowFilmmaker]

Just a feathered mask and key framing :D Honestly I flung it together quick, so it isn't as good as I could have been I suppose Glad I worked tho!

[@sherlockmaverick]

@@FellowFilmmaker Ah, I see! Looks amazing!

[@o0YumRamen0o]

Frames seems a bit low and stuttery. Plus your audio is odd in this video

[@FellowFilmmaker]

yep. had some tech issues. Sorted them out

[@jon112media]

How’d the heist go? 🤔😂 But for reals another great video!

[@FellowFilmmaker]

Lol, tune in on the channel in a few weeks, there will be a sequel :D

From the thumbnail, I thought you started reviewing portable gas stoves :p

[@srisankaran24]

It's been a long time for me since I watched your video... Suddently I thought you had sold this channel to someone else, by looking at the profile pic. 😂 Recognised when I zoomed it. Looks so MAN-LY! Thought you had a brother. 🤣By the way, how's everything going? All good? Take care... And as usual best quality with exemplary story telling style. Keep creating these beautiful content rich videos. Meanwhile take care of your health. With Lots of love. 💜

[@TomislavMoze]

My problem with Molus100 is that the mount and all the accessories are really fragile, and also the Bowens mount adapter is really poorly made it doesn't lock my aputure mini dome so I would not trust it with bigger modifiers. Also it is basically the same build quality, if it drops there is a big chance you will brake something, I managed to brake few fan blades. I love the light for its portability and the grip battery makes it really easy to use, but I wish they went with mini Bowens that colbor has since it is a bit better solution and can accept slightly better mini accessories.

[@mfluder15]

You’re the best. 😁

[@FellowFilmmaker]

lol thanks

[@peterwood1066]

Not much out there about the Yongnuo Ynlux lights. Strong competition for Amaran and Zhiyun?

[@FellowFilmmaker]

I'd have to look into it

[@Nqrgaard]

What does the live mode to compared to the Normal mode on X100?

[@FellowFilmmaker]

Live mode is for if say the cord gets unplugged from the wall and the light turns off you could plug it back in and the light would resume. You wouldn't have to push the power button to get it back on. Great for putting entire light systems on a single remote or voice activation, which is what I do.

[@EricMoore790]

Can never have too many lights...

[@FellowFilmmaker]

true

[@syakirmohdnazri]

im sorry what's wrong with your a roll ? seems a bit distracting

[@FellowFilmmaker]

Yeah, I'm having issues with my a roll camera, I'm sorting that right now.
