Rotolight NEO II

I put a 5 star cause the item is good but, it is extremely overpriced for what it is! flash will work good if the subject is within 5-6 ft the most, the light is not as powerful as they make it seem. there are definitely better options out there for less $$$. lets not talk about the trigger being ridiculously expensive as well!! great seller though!!

Love Rotolight, I just wish they would get the prices of their accessories down. This light is solid, just know the power you need before purchasing. This light will NOT help you in bright sunlight, it's not meant for that. But if you need a solid constant light that is also portable to throw on a camera this guy is great. I hope to get the Anova Pro 2 one day!

way too dim to be a worthwhile for hardly anything. Perhaps if you do a close up still life, maybe usuable? but for what they were promoting (good for fashion shoot) is totally bogus.

Not as much light as portrayed in marketing videos etc. This light WILL NOT battle the sun. This would be used as a "filler" light in outdoor lit environments. Does preform well in dark or dimly lit situations. It does provide a very nice light and the temperature adjustment option is nice to have. I do have some issues with this staying sycd to my shutter speed when used in flash mode or strobe mode. I have a SONY A6000 and a Godox Trigger and Receiver to communicate with it.

One thing I didn't notice was the lack of a rechargeable battery. Its in the description, but I didn't notice. And you can't just use regular AA batteries. You need special AA batteries. Other than than, the Neo is good.

Not as bright as I thought it would be. it's great for close up portraits though..and Durable as heck! My daughter accidentally dropped it out of my bag and on to the concrete and it still worked! Also, if you had like 3 of them it will definitely light up a room.

This has been very useful for me, doing photos at night especially. It's super sturdy--it fell off a light stand (my fault) and didn't break--only the batteries fell out.

Love how small and bright it is and easy to place on different stands or mount to a camera. Sometimes I use it just as a fill light when I need to do a video call. Super versatile.

Estoy muy contento con el Rotolight Neo II, después de ver cientos de reviews me aventuré a comprarlo y no puedo estar más satisfecho. Las características de este modelo en relación a sus modelos anteriores es la potencia que es tiene mucha mas luminosidad y el disparo con sincronización en modo flash. Este último no tiene tiempo de reciclado por lo que puedes disparar 200 flashazos sin parar haciendl una ráfaga si lo deseas. Sin duda una gran compra.

Ich habe mir die Rotolight NEO II als Kopflicht für meine Panasonic GH5 gekauft. Die LED-Lampe macht einen sehr hochwertigen und haltbaren Eindruck. Die Helligkeit ist als Kamerapoftlicht absolut ausreichend und die Einstellung der Helligkeit und Farbtemperatur macht sie für mich in jeder Situation einsetzbar. Ich betreibe Sie mir 6 AA Akkus und ich habe bisher noch keine Probleme gehabt, dass mir der Strom ausging. Wir die Lampe stationär auf einem Stativ betrieben, liegt auch noch ein Netzteil bei. Die beigelegten Fabfolien nutze ich nicht wirklich; da ist der Weißabgleich wichtiger. Schönes zusatzfeature: Die Rotolight NEO II lässt sich auch als Blitz verwenden. Sie erreicht zwar nicht die Helligkeiten wie ein echter Blitz, aber ist extrem hilfreich, wenn man Videomäßig bei Veranstaltungen unterwegs ist und zwischendurch auch noch Fotos mit Blitz schießen möchte. Die Blitzfunktion ist auch um einiges heller als die Dauerlichtfunktion (subjetiv). Schade ist, das für die kabellose Blitzsynchronisation ein elinchrom transmitter gekauft werden muss, der nicht ganz billig ist. Auf der Kamera montiert, kann man ihn aber auch kabelgebunden über ein PC-Flash-Sync kabel ansteuern. Toll ist auch die mitgelieferte Tasche so wie die weitere Effektlicht-Funktionen wie Lagerfeuer, flackernde Leuchtstoffröhre, Schußsimulation,... Fazit: Tolle Lampe, von der ich mir wahrscheinlich noch welche holen werde, um von den einfachen Softlights wegzukommen und eine klassische Dreipunktausleuchtung mit den Lampen durchzuführen.

Sono ancora incerto se tenerlo o meno nel senso che: la luce che emette dei led in modalità luce continua è molto potente e sopratutto per chi è alla ricerca di una bella luce avvolgente per ritratti magari usando anche un ombrello o un softbox tipo Godox ... ( più economico e con uguali risultati rispetto all'originale che tra alette e softbox ci vogliono più di 200 euro! ) il dubbio invece è usandolo in modalità flash che è vero che ha un tempo di ricarica tra un flash e l'altro inesistente ma è anche vero che per chi vuole utilizzare la modalità flash in piena luce del sole in esterni la potenza è veramente esigua, inoltre per chi usa il flash come me per eventi che eseguo a Venezia, (vedi alcune mie immagini con flash sul mio profilo INSTAGRAM: maurizio_torresan_official ) che lavoro in stile reportage e non ho il tempo di calcolare la giusta luce flash emessa dal NEO II , la funzione TTL è fondamentale. quindi tanto marketing in internet per funzione flash, ma vi come spiegavo all'inizio ci sto pensando se vale la pena spendere circa 400 euro se poi lo userò solo per la luce led continua ... e se volete una buona luce morbida e soffusa per ritratti su Amazon è piena di alternative più economiche di led e softbox ...

As someone who is an amateur photographer it is handy to have a full time light that can be attached to the camera and easily adjust the brightness and colour temperature. With new mirror-less cameras it means that your live view can show you exactly what your getting which is easier than flash. As it is LED it can run for 1.5hrs on 6 x AA batteries however you need to get some 2700mha rechargeable's as the cheap Costco AA's can't bring it to full brightness and die after about 10mins. Just keep in mind it is not a TTL flash so while it can operate in flash mode it's not a flash and your camera can't control it so you need to get a flash relay to control it which means it can't be on camera. The flash controller will set you back a couple of hundred dollars.
