I wonder, did you shoot this with the Sony A7S III? If so, can the result be compared to an average webcam? If people like you pay roughly 5000 dollar for a full frame camera, which is dedicated for shooting professional video and is famous for filming in low light, and a lens with perhaps even a 1.2 aperture then it is unlikely that you will buy this light as your main source of light. So I wonder what the result will be if you set this up with an average webcam.

You didn’t ask if it was a good investment. I would say no because it isn’t something you could use in anything except a low light stream situation. You would be better buying the Neweer 5600k two pack for $40 to get a cheap throw away light. Plus if you are matching the light up with a webcam then you could have issues with quality due to not have if enough light. The bigger panels will be useful for longer.

For me, the biggest pro of the Logitech's is the hardware buttons. That's huuuge compared to the Elgato's. The key lights, you're not really going to use them anywhere else. These small lights, slap a powerbank on them and use them wherever, whenever you wish without hassle

I would argue that lighting makes a MUCH bigger difference than the camera, but I wouldn't want to see cheap webcams in this comparison. A webcam will care about the AMOUNT of light you throw into it, while the a prosumer camera (like an A7III) will allow us to look at the QUALITY differences of the lights. And a side note, but if the $5 desk lamp from IKEA had a 60W bulb in it, that would be about the most accurate source of light you could use.

Thanks for sharing this review! I've been wanting to improve my lighting for my videos, but haven't found an option that works for my budget and space yet. I'm glad that you called out surface area as a point to evaluate. That seems to be the problem I've run into is that the smaller lights create shadows that are too broad since the light source is smaller. But between the Litra and Elgato...they are super close. I think I actually prefer the color tone of the Litra over the Elgato (but you can always color grade). Great review!

The 3-way comparision unironically reminds me of the comparision between phone sensors, crop camera sensors, and large camera sensors, where capturing more gradations in the skin creates more of a "3D" / lifelike look I think the main selling point is being able to mount them to the computer monitor for traveling - even in compact spaces, you can usually find a way to rig lighting if you're determined enough

I work on a two Elgato Key Light setup and I love how they clamp on my desk so it's a semi-permanent installation. I do use them also around 10-15% brightness but will turn it up if I'm using them during photoshoots with the green screen. Logitech's options do seem great for newer content creators and streamers though plus they're much more portable

The differences are going to be in the detail at high resolutions, and the overall contrast you can achieve. Your camera is good enough to create really good videos in almost any lighting. but the differences between these three are obvious, even on your camera. your aputure light allows your camera to create a lot more detail, and better contrast.

I was thinking exactly the same thing. My old C920/what a lot of people use sometimes struggled even with the elgato keylight at over 50%. Its worth noting the C920 is a really old terrible webcam but some lower end cameras may struggle without more lighting than the Logitech lights can provide.

If you've got the space personally I think it's much nicer to have a larger light with more LEDs that just aren't running quite as bright, It gives a softer light obviously but also it's less irritating on the eyes. Would be interested to see if other people agree? PS. Frozen eye mask or piles cream for the eyes my friend.

Great review and comparison, Harris! I think this hits a different spot in the market than the typical key-lights enough to become a success in their own right: 1) Business users. Easy to add to your work monitor and even power from a free USB (on the monitor?). Also won't make your desk look out of place in a typical office environment. 2) People on the move. Great for telcos and even basic content creation when on the go (hotel rooms and conference centers have horrible lighting conditions). They probably fit nicely in the computer backpack/bag/carryon. Would also be a breeze to set up. 3) Off-grid content. On the road/ car-vlogging/bushcrafting/whatever. Get some decent light without bringing a portable generator and a wheelbarrow. 4) Camping. Powered off a power bank this is a really good camp light for flood lighting an outdoor area if you want to pitch a tent or cook or build something after dusk. For 3 and 4 I'd get a Gorillapod or similar to get more flexibility in mounting. This seems to be a consumer-version of a Lightcube or Litra Pro (wonder about the affiliation) 60 USD is a steal for this kind of flexibility and 90+ CRI. Edit: Just learned that Litra IPR was acquired by Logitech back in June.. Also check out their Litra Pro which is awesome for a more versatile and "pro" light for videography, photo, etc (1200 LM, comes with diffuser) at 220 USD

Great video ! A question I wanted to ask about the light tests you do: Is the light comfortable? I mean, having a light source focused on a small area and pushed at 100% versus a larger area used at 20% or 50%. I think it's a significant point to consider, especially since these are lights that are pointed at a person, often for hours, during game sessions or other. What is your feeling about that? (or has anyone tried them too?)

so now that i have finished watching the video, here are my thoughts: Logitech should've came out with this a while ago!! its such a simple yet elegant design that for most, would sit right next to the C920 webcam. I LOVE Logitech. ever since i got my first webcam back in 2005 the Logitech Quickcam MP. Id play with the special effects for hours!! For the past 3 years or so i have been very "DIY" using 10.5 " clamp reflectors with 800 lumen temperature adjustable led bulbs diffused by covering the face of the reflector with some type of diffusion material (acrylic, lycra, white t-shirt, wax paper, printer paper). a 2-pack of 10.5" reflectors run about $10-$15, a 2-pack of temperature adjustable led bulbs run anywhere from $10-$25 (depending on the brand). keeping this in mind, you can make 2 "stream lights" for about $30. you can also get a plug in dimmer as well if you want brightness control. I hope this helps those of you looking for DIY Stream lights.

I recently learned it's not the cucumber, per se, but the cool temperature that makes cucumber work. You can simply use a cold compress and yes, it's really supposed to work. Thank you for always reviewing affordable options. These look like they work just fine and although the surface area may not be ideal, I like that they wouldn't take up a lot of space. I have a window in front of me and have managed pretty well for my one daytime stream, but my lighting is terrible for my nighttime streams. I'd love to be able to turn off my overhead lights and play in a dimmer room. I'm wondering though, how were these on your eyes? They seem bright to have right in your eyes, as they'd be sitting on top of a monitor.

I personally like the $20 clip on usb ring lights better. The controls are about 2 ft down the cable so you can easily reach it behind the monitor and change levels and tones, and the multiple rings ones really help product multiple angles of light. This logitech looks nice, but like a pain to manipulate the controls, i would have to get out of my chair to reach them. If you could get this on sale for $40 it might be tempting.

Thanks for a look at a great alternative light solution. I really cheaped out and got a pair of Neewer usb lights. $40 for the pair. Like you said - the only thing that really matters is will people refuse to sub because of the lighting quality? I have to insert my color lenses, and I don’t have any app controls. But they work great for me. As for moving up, these Logitech options look great.

Both the brightness and colour temperatures of the Logitech are pretty good! But what needs to be done is the quality of diffusion (too harsh at around the ideal brightness) and surface area. Perhaps a new version in a 18" bar form factor that can be mounted on top of a monitor would do the trick! (Even better if they could include a Fresnel lens before the diffusion layer so that the lights can project further!)

60 bucks for lictraglue! I love your sponsors! I feel that the spot in the back is still overpowering and providing more of a balanced overall, but definitely 2 lights and i wish that the bright/dim could be a bit more fine tuned. The comparison of for example the left image and the middle is more of a warmth as the lictra really ghosts you out a bit while the elgato provides a bit more tone overall?

I’m interested to know how it feels looking at the light. I feel some lights you can look at longer than others. The ability to look at the light for hours can be difficult and lumens don’t usually determine that. I’m curious if you are looking at it is the defusing on the Logitech more or less glaring than the elgato?

I think the LG light is fine, but in order to really have it look good I think you need two of them shining from opposite sides. I'd have to personally test it, but if i were to buy it i'd probably sit one on either side of my 27" monitor to get optimal lighting. Of course that sorta defeats the purpose of having a cheaper light, but also means that for a smaller set up or a set up with less space you are better off. Also, Harris I'm not sure about the cucumber trick, but I expect you spend a significant time looking at screens during the day which puts a huge strain on your eyes. I recently got new glasses with the blue light filter and the bags under my eyes have reduced drastically.

The great thing about the litra being way cheaper than the keylight is you could go to a two light set up and still have change to buy a bit of diffusion material. The variable colour temperature’s great in a two light setup too, turn one all the way to warm and the other all the way to cool and you end up looking well lit but not ‘flat’, because of the way the lights interact. Or stick both lights on full behind the diffusion material you bought with your change to get something closer to the single softbox wraparound. Or just use the savings to get better audio: that’s always worth investing in.

From my experience of using a small light just above the monitor, the brightness and coverage is great, but at just over the monitor it's still really in my eye line and after a while actually starts to hurt my eyes. With something larger, you can have it slightly higher up out of your eye light and keep it a bit lower in terms of brightness. I think 2 of these at a lower power to reduce coverage positioned just over your monitors would be ok, the shadows and diffusion look really good, to me anyway. Time spent with cheaper lights and positioning, I don't think you'd be able to tell the difference between more expensive lights, and glancing at the images I couldn't tell if I'm honest. I definitely wouldn't want to latch these onto the back of my monitor long term, and would look for an arm of some sort, so I like that they kept it simple for the out of the box mount to keep costs down. Future updates to allow Stream Deck control make these a great pickup, so you can push a button to turn both on if you want to.

I feel like where this one shines is in movable setups. Like when I stream to paint models , it's not in my filming studio but it's in my painting room which is poorly lit and small. So it'd be nice to have this easier to move lighting set up without having to drag all my key lights or studio lights. Not to mention the price point is nice. However, it seems like it's ability is easily replicated in slightly cheaper amazon light finds of similar setup.

I think the Litra would be great for people with limited space, possibly a wall mounted monitor (or in my case a TV). They could sit on the monitor with the cable routed along side the monitor's video and power cable. The aperture looks great, because of it's size it difuses alot of light more evenly. And weirdly enough, the Litra looks a smidge better than the Elgato keylight.

Another great, educational video. The slight difference I saw between the Logitech and Elgato was that the lighting seems a bit more 'whole'. I'm not sure what that could be, but I suspect maybe the size of the light could be the reason? The same reason the largest light had more coverage (height, obviously as well I suppose). If anything, it makes me want to get the big light!

My biggest concern with the Logitech light is the size. It was noticeably harsher than the other two. It was the only one where the hair shadows were really pronounced, and the neck shadow was pretty distracting. Normally you could fix this with a sheet of diffusion, either a white sheet or some form of wax/parchment paper, but due to how much light you would lose and the limited amount of lumens you have to work with, it might not be the best option. It's not a bad option for $60 though, I have to say. I would still probably prefer one of the Viltrox, Raleno, or Dazzne panels, but it's definitely a more attractive option than Elgato's lights due to price. A comparison I would like to see would be a lower end COB compared to both the Elgato and Logitech light, since you can get a proper COB with softbox, grid, and a light stand, for under $200. The GVM P80S (80W) and Godox SL60W (or Y) are probably the best two choices for that, then just pair it with a Godox Octa Softbox. I got my GVM P80S kit for under $100 personally, and the difference from LED panels to that was drastic. It is nice to see the comparison with some more expensive gear just to see what that edge looks like, but since there are much more affordable options, that might be worth looking into.

Love the ability to control brightness without any app + ability to power it from USB + being small so you don't need any stands and whatnot is great, but no integration with Streamdeck is a dealbreaker. Once you get used to it, there's no way I'm going back to dark ages of controlling my lights any other way :D

ive had great success with 2 15$ 10in bower ring lights from Walmart. 3 temperature options and 9 brightness levels. I only use them at level 3 and 4 respectively. I've even seen people put tissue paper over them to diffuse better. but mine are about 3 and 4 ft away respectively and diffuse well on their own.

Honestly I'd take 2 of these over a Key Light Air any day. I wonder if the articulation on the mount will allow you to easily mount it somewhere else in the room too. Could be a nice alternative if you need a light mounted high up.

I actually just recently got a Aulynp Magnetic monitor light off Amazon which is pretty similar to this except it is 1/3rd the price. Honestly? Probably doesn't compare to really great lights - I don't have any of those to compare to - but it works pretty dang well! Whole lot better than not having the lighting, that's for sure.

for a perminant lighting setup i think the light is small & casts hard edges. Other people have mentioned that, for a put up/take down stream setup, or a traveling/WFH zoom lighting kit, this is perfect and economical! but prevent ewaste if you know you’re making a permanent setup, i would save money for something specialized toward pro/permanent studio use-I wish I had!

Honestly, it's good. I might get one, it's a light you can also easily take while you travel. Can't under estimate this space and money this can save you. I believe it won't hinder the viewers experience and will help most streamers who probably don't have a dedicated light for streaming. Nice one

Combine cool and warm lights and you almost have daylight and because both are on you are getting the maximum output (all 18 led's are on). This also helps with CRI because instead of using expensive led's that have more coverage they can use cheaper led's that cover where the other one is missing in effect giving a higher CRI. This of course is not perfect however it is a budget light! Just wish it was bigger for more diffusion, they might have even got away with using the same amount of led's.

re: brightness. Good work on the reality check when it comes to brightness. Some folks will just get the over-powered 2800 lumen light and, as you noted, only use it at 10-15%. One thing to note is that light varies according to the distance squared, so a light that is moved twice as far away is delivering 1/4 the light. Those 2800 lumen lights may be fine if you have to have your lights 4 feet from your face whereas these smaller lights could be placed closer and still deliver decent light.

My worry with these lights is they look great when others review them, but every time I buy one, my videos look terrible and I end up returning them. Small lights are just too harsh, I've got the best results with an amazon softbox. I mean I'd love to use smaller lights, but they're usually not good enough :(

Tip for a stand for the light - just get a scissor arm from Amazon for like $20 with the proper screw mount and mount the light on that and clamp it to the back of your desk. Gives a ton of versatility as to where you want to place the light and also gives a ton of free real estate on your desk - currently I use a scissor arm mount for my ring light and camera

I have the Godox ES45 and larger soft box video light like you do with an additional 43" diffusor. I can spot the difference between the smaller rectangle with less diffusion and my larger soft box. The quality of the light isn't the problem. LEDs are cheap and easily have accurate CRI. The problem is the size of the light source. When a smaller light source hits your face, it looks harsh and ugly like when you beam a flashlight onto a person for an interrogation. The Logitech is frankly too small and unless they have some amazing software integration, I'd say it's better to get cheap Godox or Neewer LED panels that are primarily better because they're larger.

Question!. With it being this small, is it distracting on the eyes when your trying to play games? As if you have to have it brighter in order to light you proper means you will have a very bright light pointing right at your eyes..lol.

Harris you looked a lot more awake with the cheaper lights. Maybe you just need the monster light to be lower :) Would being mounted on the monitor cause it to be more shakey? As someone is playing a game or typing at the desk? Would that be a weird effect during streaming? Also is this light more designed for laptop people for like teleconferencing? Seems to be more aimed at the business user than a streamer though both I think work equally effective.
