At first, I only expected to use this light as a supplement light for full-on camera shoots, but I have been using it a lot more than that. Whether I use my DSLR or just my phone to take photos, I like to shine this light onto the objects, especially for food, it makes the objects a lot more flattering. This light also helps a lot for video conferences that I can just stick it near my monitor. This light is portable and easy to use, the colors are bright and accurate. It charges via USB-C and the battery lasts long. The battery still remains 75% after a 2-hour meeting. Definitely recommend to people who take photos or videos often!

This thing is amazing! I use it with my gopro for vlogging. The color temp range is impressive and it is quite bright at max brightness. I love that it can be dimmed all the way down to 1%. The 360 color rgb is great too! I will be buying more of these!

This light packs a bright punch for its size! I love that it has a hot shoe on it so I can mount it on my camera!

First, I will admit my foolishness: I thought this had a touchscreen for controlling the color. It does not. I looked over the photos carefully before deciding to get this, and had convinced myself that I was getting a touchscreen controlled device. I was wrong. But that's my fault. I mention it only in case you are wondering the same.Having said that...This is an impressive little light. It is very lightweight, adding negligible weight if you connect it to your camera. Note that this is not controlled by your camera. It mounts to a standard flash connector, but is meant to be a steady light source, rather than a strobe flash.The light is plenty bright for some purposes. It can add a nice bit of fill to macro photos, but the brightness drops off quickly within a couple of feet. Don't expect to light a room with this, but it certainly has its uses.The light basically has two modes: standard and color. Standard (non-color) mode allows you to adjust both the intensity and warmth of the light. Color mode allows you to adjust the color and intensity. In color mode, the color is selected by setting a number of degrees from 0 to 360. There is a label on the light (it's the label I mistook for a touchscreen) that shows the mapping of colors to degrees. This uses a standard HSV color model where 0 to 60 degrees is red, 61 to 120 is yellow, and so on. You don't need to know anything about this model in order to change the color: just look at the label and adjust the degrees to match the color you want. Then, adjust the itensity.The interface is simple: 3 buttons. The mode button allows you to switch between standard and color modes using a long press. Once you choose your mode, a short press of the button allows you to switch between adjusting the intensity, or the color/warmth (depending on which mode you are in). The other two are directional buttons for increasing/decreasing the value you want to change (color, warmth, or intensity). You can press to increase/decrease one step at a time, or press and hold to quickly move through the values. It's really quite simple, and can be figured out in the dark. It would be helpful if the buttons were easier to distinguish in the dark (perhaps a bump on one of the buttons would have helped). But it's easy to learn.All in all, this is a handy and versatile little light. Oh, and it doesn't have a touchscreen.

No product was sent to me for free or discount. I bought them for full price.Saying that - I bought 3 of these lights. I have 2 older releases of similar Ulanzi lights, but always hated having to find and use the color gels to achieve a colored lighting. With these those are a thing of the past.Now I get everything set up, position my lights and then I can just cycle through the colors until I find the one that pops.The lights have 2 modes, RGB and Correlated Color Temperature (CCT). The CCT mode has a wide range of white light warmth. However, I have other Ulanzi lights for white light.I mainly got them for the RGB ability. The lights have a nice range of colors, starting with red on one end and going through all of the colors to end up at a nice violet at the other end.These lights have an additional brightness setting as well, which goes from 0 to 100%. They get extremely bright. That is what I wanted, bright vivid color lighting.In my opinion, these lights were a good value for my money. I have expensive ($300 for 2 lights & some accessories) rechargable lighting gear, which has all sorts of attachments for them. Those are great, and I primarily use them for getting light in specific areas of photographs. These Ulanzi Lights are amazing for general lighting purposes. They put out a lot of light in a ton of different colors.For their price and utility I will be picking up more in the future!

I own several other RGB LED "pocket lights" like this. All of them are at least 2x the cost of this one. So I can imagine the folks looking at this are probably not working from an unlimited budget, but who want to expand their lighting capabilities without expanding their debt too much.If you've looked at all the $70-$100 RGB LED lights and found them outside your price range, you definitely need to take a look here. All the important features (warm to cool white, and 1-360 choices for RGB with 1-100 choices for brightness. And built-in cold shoe mounts on all 3 sides for adding more of these (or anything else that will go there). And the display is a very nice (OLED, I think) one. The button controls make it a bit slow to get where you're going sometimes, but...it's $30. There is great value here.No fancy modes like "simulated lightning" so if you're looking for a full featured video light, you'll need to spend a bit more. But perfect if you do creative photography projects and are looking to add a splash of color. I may have more expensive lights in my bag of gear, but that doesn't mean this is getting tossed out by any means. This is a great little light, which covers the most important bases, and doesn't break the bank.

Surprisingly bright. Added bonus is that it can change colors. Have it on my hero9. It’s not that heavy.

Everything is as good as I expected for a light of this size, maybe evened a little brighter. However, the bottom cold show mount is built in, I hate this! I wanted to use this in some spots and got this for its small size, only to find I cannot remove the cold show mount and its not really going to work for my needs.
