5 out of 5 stars A Fine Little Light   June 1, 2007
 4 out of 4 found this review helpful

This light works great; I'm very pleased with its performance and low profile design. It provides strong light in those low light situations and flesh tones remained neutral.

3 out of 5 stars Great light, weak base   April 8, 2007
 6 out of 6 found this review helpful

I love having this little light in my camera bag, but I've broken 2 of them in the last year, due to the relatively flimsy construction of the light's thin plastic base. On this video light the base is all important, as it where the power originates, and once it's broken, it's broken; time for a new one. The low cost makes it relatively painless to replace, but still.. Oh yes, how did I break it? Once by putting the camera into it's bag with the light still attached, and also by someone brushing against the camera when it was on my shoulder. It's great to have, but be very careful to put it away when you are not using it.

For the future I urge Sony to create an LED version with lower power consumption, variable brightness and a stronger base, but meanwhile, it's a must-have in any camera bag.



5 out of 5 stars Size doesn't matter   March 9, 2007

I know Sony already has a great reputation, but I was impressed with this product. It's small and light-weight, but it's pretty bright. It also has an auto function (just like a flash), so if you're not sure when you'll need it, you can just use that function. My camera doesn't have a built-in flash, so it works well for video and still shots. It is a tad pricey, but it's a Sony.


3 out of 5 stars Good little light, would like to see some modifications.   March 7, 2007

I'm generally happy with this light. It's small, much smaller than I thought. It puts out a lot of light, but too much in some instances. It would be nice if in "Auto" mode the light would adjust it's brightness to "normalize" a scene to some defined light level or if there were 1/3 manual increments on the light itself. The reason is that the light is blinding when on and looking at the camera within it's 10 foot operating distance. As it is, I've had to resort to using paper at times as a filter.
