EMART Photography LED Spotlight for Video Recording and Studio,2-Pack | Portable Small Spot Light for Jewelry Photography, Camera Photo Lamp, Table Top Macro, Stop Motion Lighting

I film planner videos. Everything is done on my desktop. I set up two lights on each side and have an LED workbench light above. This is great for each side to offset many of my shadows! I use the blue filter under the LED light because I love how bright it makes my creations look on camera. They're very easy to set up as well. There is a cap that comes off the bottom and three spokes come out for legs. The legs open up even wider to provide a solid base for the lamps. My only wish was that I could mount them but these work very well. The light is very bright and high quality. The pictures provided are what my desktop looks like at night. Just the LED light above on the left and then my LED light above plus the two lights on the side to offset any glare. Works perfectly! Great for filming desktop videos or videos where you use your hands in front. Also, great for using next to or shining into a lightbox of some sort. I absolutely love how compact these lights are as well. The legs fold right back up inside of the light and the lights are adjustable up and down and can be pretty compacted themselves. They come with a standard US plug each so you need two separate outlet inputs to plug them both in at the same time or an extension cord. Would definitely recommend!

Good lighting for photography. I don't find it strong to overcome natural background light. An intensity switch would help.

My only issue with these are in just the design. They are lightweight enough to put about anywhere, even upside down with the assistance of double sided velcro. But the caps to cover the legs just click over, if they screwed on is give an 11/10. But while hanging upside down any movement that allows the legs to spring and the cap pops off and gravity does the rest. Besides that the lights are great and bright and the light diffusers are great also

I thought I'd write a review since I've been using these little guys for my cooking channel. You can see how they work in any of my videos at "Legends of Cookery" on YT. My lighting is these two lamps and my regular kitchen lights. I've not had to make any lighting fixes in IMovie, which I'm using to edit. First--when my order initially arrived, there was only one light inside the box. I returned the box and within a couple of days, I had my replacement. So, kudos for great customer service. As to how the lights actually work. I can't speak to how good they are on skin, because I use them on cooking videos but, for me, they were absolutely worth the price. Their light is brighter than I expected. In fact, sometimes, I shine them onto the ceiling and simply use the reflected light for a nicer tone. I haven't used any of the filters, because they don't seem to give me the bright quality that I want for my videos. The filters do work, though--I just don't use them. A small thing--I have dropped both lamps a good dozen times and they've managed to survive my clumsiness every time. Overall--I'd buy them again and I'd definitely use this vendor again.

I did not dock any stars because they work as they should but: I really hate them. I consider it my own fault for not knowing what I wanted. If you are an amateur like me, this is where I went wrong. They are about 9" tall so everything you photograph needs to be about that height because there is no way to adjust the height. You can put the lights onto a platform, but they tip easily so I kept knocking them off the platform and onto the floor. Even without the platform, you have a limited area of light, so you need to be close to the item you are photographing and then I kept knocking them off the table with my elbow. On the plus side, they are robust considering the number of times that I have had to pick them up off the floor. You can adjust the lights up and down, but you need to tighten the locking mechanism each time; because if you bump them at all, the lights drop and shine on the tabletop. If you are shooting anything with a reflection, even a glossy booklet, you end up with two light rings in your photo or a spotlight. I tried to like them, but I don't get the 'warm fuzzies' about them. The return window is closed so they will be relegated to the 'resale' pile.

Some instructions would be helpful. They are not very stable & fall over consistently. I definitely need to practice because I'm getting lots of shadows.

I use these lamps for small product photography. The adjustable lamp and light bright options adds just the right amount of light to get rid of shadows. I like that they can be handheld to easily shine light from above an object. They also make a great desk lamp when put on a shelf above my desk.

Great mini table top lights!!! Great for photographing small items. Love how compact and powerful they are. The quality is amazing. Brightness is great and love how you can adjust them to your needs.

Could have a little note as to why the blue and red/orange lenses are used for?

I bought these to use for extra lighting with product photography. I have used them about 6 times and they work perfectly and are quite bright.

Delivered on time and item is just as described. These lights are perfect for the close up table top work I bought them for, not sure if they would be of much use for larger objects at a further distance from the camera tho as not super bright.

Very dimly lit. Does not focus on anything. Good for small area if the surrounding is dark.

I used these lights with my light tent to take better pictures for my Etsy shop, they added extra brightness and they are easy to maneuver.
