NEEWER CB200C // Power and quality RGBWW that doesn't break the bank!

[@DavidLarsson1]

Just found your channel and subscribed. You are doing a good job! And I appreciate the outdoor testing in this one.

[@RedFrameTech]

Thanks for the sub! I’m glad you like the video 🙂

Man my most powerful RGB tops out at 120w so that’s pretty crazy! I love these budget manufacturers shooting their shot at the big boys!

[@RedFrameTech]

Yeah, it’s extremely powerful. And for the price, it’s incredible. I was at Neewer’s booth at IBC and they’re definitely starting to come out with some good stuff!

[@williambulitta5369]

Great video! What light stand are you using?

[@RedFrameTech]

I’m not really sure to be honest. Have had it for ages.. It might be from NEEWER as well

[@RhettThompsonFilm]

I think the 200w and 100w share the same housing but u could be wrong. I think this light had gotta be quieter than the Zhyuine

[@RedFrameTech]

It’s quieter for sure. Fan noise is one of the main issues I have with the more compact lights.

Really interesting review, especially as I'm looking to get lighting for a studio environment. May I ask how this light works inside your studio setting as a key-light with the lantern and/or skirt? And how far away you'd have it from you when filming please?

[@RedFrameTech]

You're building a studio? Cool! Btw, it was nice to see a face with the voice (watched your latest video) 🙂 Using the light as a key-light works well with the lantern. The skirt keeps the light from spilling into the room. One thing to note is that I now have quite a bit of space in my new studio and so it's not an issue to have some amount spill. For a smaller space it might be better to use a parabolic soft box with a grid, to have the light be more directional. As for the distance: rule of thumb is that the bigger the light source is and shorter the distance to it, the softer the light will be. It all depends on the look you want to achieve with the mix of focal length, distance from the lens/framing, aperture and softness of the light. The CB200C is powerful enough to basically do anything you'd want in a studio environment, but depending on the amount of space 80 or 100watts could definitely suffice.

@@RedFrameTech I can't help being so handsome, can I? 🤣🤣🤣😇 As for the studio, it's not for me, it's for a friend. Honest 🤣 He's got a modest amount of subs on his main channel, which is an out and about vlogging channel, however he has a second channel with only 8k subs which is perfect for a studio environment to present from. I'm trying to do a bit of research to get lighting to make it look more professional. No point having an expensive camera to film if the lighting is rubbish creating so much noise that it looks like a crappy webcam. BTW I can only dream of hitting 8k. 🤣. I can easily see you hitting 20k within 12 months. Traction is building and you are pumping out solid reviews.

[@user-pl2ic9yq7q]

does it come with a stand?

[@RedFrameTech]

No it doesn’t

[@thegrowthclinic]

Have you tried any of their other lights from newer ? Looking for something 100-200w - tried the COLBOR cl100x but it won't go full power on silent fan mode unlike the cl60 which we have or any other recommendations - want it to be quiet like the colbor.

[@RedFrameTech]

I have seen most of their line-up at IBC2024 and their more recent light are pretty decent. It was hard to judge fan noise there though, because it was a noise environment to begin with 😅
