Very cool! I don't typically care much about gear, but this is really useful. Thanks for sharing Ed!

[@EdProsser]

Yeah it's a great little tool, very versatile as you can see.

[@artisticbehaviormn]

Wow!!! I have a spotlight too and never done the bounce in tight spaces 🙁🙁 Thanks for sharing!!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@EdProsser]

Have a play around!

[@ZER0speaks]

This is really informative, helpful and sensational!

[@videowien]

Great video, very relaxed but not boring at all

[@EdProsser]

I like to hear that!

[@CartyCantDance]

Top notch as always ed!

[@EdProsser]

Thanks man!

[@LiamHVideo]

This was awesome man. So helpful!

[@EdProsser]

Good!

[@YoungBlaze]

you can also get the 36 lens and get a iris controller

[@EdProsser]

Yeah I might pick those up at some point!

[@AdamTV]

@@EdProsserwhat is the advantage of the 19 over the 36 degree?

[@EdProsser]

@@AdamTV just the size of the beam, 36 gives you a wider / larger spot at same distance.

[@Incog80]

Coldddd shots

[@Mrpshortfilm]

super video merci 👏🏼

[@elieh.studio]

Very interesting, what do you think are the differences between this and the Aputure Spotlight apart from size and price?

[@EdProsser]

I think it probably has a slightly better lens and more robust design. It also can only be used on 300w max. There is perhaps some chromatic aberration on the Amaran unit when using certain gobos

[@hellohogo]

what's the worst that could happen if you use this on a 600w light? Surely it won't melt

[@EdProsser]

The glass in the lens might shatter? Something in the housing may also melt or warp and might get stuck on your fancy 600w light. Honestly I don't know... but if you want to report back, I'm all ears!

[@hellohogo]

@@EdProsser haha all very good points!

[@aramatkinson]

I love a spotlight but never brought myself to cough up the money for one. This might be the one though!

[@EdProsser]

Yeah at this price and size it makes it slightly less niche and easier to justify!

[@GARYTALK]

感謝你的分享，學到很多 : )

[@johnlocke3481]

What percent % was your lighting at for these shots? I know you're using the 200. I'm trying to decide between that and the 150c. Thanks!

[@EdProsser]

I think jumping between 20-30%

[@lorenzonarwhal]

Hello! I am going to buy one but I cannot well understand the difference in size of the wall projection between 19 and 36 degree lens attachment. Could you help me figuring out how much difference is among them?

[@EdProsser]

36 will give you a bigger spot at the same distance, 19 a smaller sized spot

[@lorenzonarwhal]

@@EdProsser thank you very much for the quick answer!!! I am wondering how much is this difference, because I can’t understand if the smaller size of the 19 could be enough

[@EdProsser]

@@lorenzonarwhal it'll depend what and how you're lighting, you can increase the size of the spot by moving the light back, but if your shooting in tighter spaces you may want the 36. You can see in my small living room in this vid, the 19 isn't huge, but it works well if you want to cut the light into small beams.

[@johnlocke3481]

How arrogant of them to have you pay for gobo's that project their logo....Nobody wants that, just give us a few more useful ones. JFC.

[@EdProsser]

Haha agreed!

[@framewavemedia4831]

This spotlight does NOT work well to create slashes on a background to emulate sunlight coming in through a window. If you try and create a long slash you will get significant leaking all over.

[@EdProsser]

how do you mean?

[@the_black_douglas9041]

Great Ed! That music video you did using this kit looks excellent. I bought the Godox version of this kit a while ago when a client wanted me to get tiny spotlight circles on tiny little jewellery pieces. One of these kits attached to my Aputure 120D was the answer. But for very little money you get so much more. These kits are very flexible and I use mine lots and I haven’t found the need to buy more lenses yet apart from the 85 that came with the kit.

[@EdProsser]

Yeah it's a fab piece of kit, will be taking it on most of my shoots moving forward

[@9-5yap]

I have the 36 degree and can relate. Not sure if it affects the 19 degree. I think the spotlight se iris is the only way to close out the leaks but it might make your slashes smaller.

[@matheussp13]

You mean like 01:04 where he tries to cut a shape and it leaks another format?
