Description
The Amaran AL-H198 from Aputure is an on-camera LED light that utilises 198 LEDs with a CRI of 95+ to deliver daylight illumination with high colour accuracy. The light produces a 60° beam angle with a brightness of 920 lux at a distance of 1 m. A step-less dimming dial is provided on the back of the unit for adjusting light output from 0 to 100%. The light can be powered by either six AA batteries or an optional Sony NP-F/FM/QM/FP/FH/FV type battery, with four LED indicator lights on the back of the unit displaying the remaining battery life.
To create a larger light source, up to nine AL-H198 panels can be attached together using extension slots on all four sides of the light. The slim and frameless design of the light means that when multiple light are connected, there are no gaps or light leaks. One extension attachment piece comes included, which also serves as a 1/4"-20 adapter. Also included are a swivel shoe-mount adapter for camera-mounting, a diffusion filter, and an orange warming filter.

I bought this product knowing that I was going to be shooting some footage in a very dark reception hall, which I'm sure glad I made the impulse decision to buy this guy a few days in advance and learned how to use it the day of. Simple to learn and easily to maneuver. At first, I was having difficulty with the extender that you are supposed to put on the light to attach to the camera, but then I figured you are supposed to attach it to the light then to the movable ball head, and then to the camera. Genius! Takes 6 batteries to keep the puppy alive and I'm not sure how much time it will actually last, but so far so good. For the price I would say this product is very good. Not sure how long it will last, but I'd say its worth it!Read more Read less
