    It¡¯s very cool to be able to get a full lighting kit like this for the price this company is offering it for.
    In the past it¡¯s been a pain to find and buy everything separately, getting the light, then the soft box (or umbrella), then the stand… trying to always get the best deal and make sure it all is compatible and of similar quality.
    I got the version with the soft box because I like to use these lights for interviews and product photography/video. I¡¯m quite happy with it, for the price.
    The light is very light weight, being made of plastic, but feels sturdy. There is a fan in the light, but the noise is comparable with other similar lights. The light output is similar to other similar models, too. The light color is a bit cooler than other similar lights, but still works well for daylight balanced scenes.
    The stand is metal, with clamps that feel sturdy. It¡¯s 6¡¯ tall at fully extended.
    The power brick comes with a 5¡¯ cable on one end and 6¡¯ on the other end.
    I recommend hanging the power brick on the stand when extended fully so it doesn¡¯t stress the connector. I also recommend using the second diffusing fabric in the soft box to fully soften the light, just like with any other soft box.

    This review is for the GVM 80W CRI97+ 5600K LED Video Light, Continuous Output Lighting Kit with Tripod Stand, Bowens Mount, 22 inches Softbox for YouTube, Video Recording, Wedding, Outdoor Shooting

    I have been needing a more pro type light to do some videos, and I found this at a good price. Some lights with a light box are just out of my price range.

    Once you get the light box put together, using this light is super easy. The included tripod is highly adjustable, and the diffused light is perfect for my needs.

    This 80W continuous output light is perfect for video recording light setups. That was what i chose it for and so far its been great. The build quality seems very good. The quality and color of the lighting is excellent. The modifier and stand that come with the light are both great as well. So far I’ve been very happy with the results of the videos and portraits that I have shot with this light. Its been a good investment in my gear for sure.

    Very quiet and works great !! I am very happy with the product. Maybe some installation manual of the lamp cover would have been nice. It was tricky to install until I figured out how the pins are inserted. If you have any questions please ask me and I will help you figure it out. I use it in a small room, 3ft by 10ft and it lights the place up nicely. You can dim the light, there is a dimmer switch. The stand is also of good quality.

    This is Great affordable light. As a videographer I ordered this lights for my YouTube video setup.
    Cant beat the price, it’s an excellent value as we get the stand, softbox, Bowens mount and the actual light for the price.

    I’m Impressed with this light quality as well.The light is soft and can get it adjusted to be quite bright if needed. The fan noise is low & can’t catch them on the videos and its does not get very hot with some continuous use.

    If you are on a limited budget and need a good, reliable lighting for creating quality professional videos, I definitely recommend this kit light.

    Two cons for me which i noticed but not a deal breaker for me
    Remote is missing could be useful for controlling the light output remotely.
    Lack of LCD screen display. Could be useful to remember to set the desired brightness for next shoots.

    Big shout out to the Seller. Due to the current COVID situation the expected delivery date was 2 weeks but i got the item in 2 days only. Overall I’m really happy for the unit for the price i paid.

    I bought this to use for video work and one of the best features is that it is very quiet, with a barely audible fan. I used a db meter to check the fan loudness and with the meter right next to the unit it measured an average of 27db, which is very quiet. It is not noticeable if you are further away from the light and this makes it useful for quiet interviews in a studio. The light output is also very good, comparable to other units that are actually higher wattage. The control is very simple, a single dimmer knob. I love that it also has the Bowens standard mount so I can use my existing soft boxes and modifiers. GVM also has some great accessories. The kit comes with a small soft box and basic light stand. The box is a little time consuming to set up, so I just leave it set up all the time. It then quickly attaches to the light when needed. The light stand is very basic, but should work and hold up fine for light duty use. It makes a very portable location lighting kit for indoor supplemental light or main lighting (when used with fill light). I ordered another kit so I¡¯ll have two units to take on location. Note that the light temperature (color) is fixed at 5600K which is natural daylight. If you need to match tungsten lamp lighting, you may want their more expensive model which has variable white balance and remote control too.

    My friend and and decided to start our own side photography business..something we¡¯ve wanted to do for many years, needed something durable, And affordable for our start up, since it will be doing a lot of traveling and receiving a lot of wear and tear..
    With nothing else to compare it to besides a few ring style lights, this fixture has been a dream come true!! Absolutely perfect for portrait studio settings.. we were both amazed at how quiet the fan is, this has been very helpful, while photographing infants, which otherwise, could be a disastrous situation.
    My daughter has also gotten amazing results with her makeup application tutorial YouTube Channel,
    She has tripled her followers in the past 2 weeks, since upgrading her lighting!!!!
    Instructions are impressively clear , easy to read and user friendly!!
    The tripod is durable, strong and easy to use!. The actual soft box, is A strong durable material as well… You can set up the light without the soft box if needed and it is extremely bright.!!
    Overall I am very pleased, Light has already paid for itself, Amazing value!!
    it has gotten tons of use. (More from my daughter), and holding up very well..
    We have had nothing but positive feedback , repeat business and new business from word of mouth , All thanks to this lighting kit!
    Highly recommended

    I’m still very new to photography and started getting into it because of reviews actually. This is a gvm light, i have several other products from them and haven’t been disappointed yet. Its easy to assemble, very easy to operate, and overall performs as you would expect it to. I’ve made a video that does a pretty good job detailing assembly and shows it being used. It comes with all needed parts – except possibly directions. I say that because mine didnt come with complete directions, which I show in the video. It was pretty easy to work out assembly but I was lost for a second because I’ve never put together something like this before. The only other potential negative note I would say is the tripod is just barely capable of holding this straight when its raised high. mine started to tilt a few times, I have other tripods so not a big concern for me. It also might have just been how i had it angled or something, like I said I’m still new to all this. The light itself is very bright, I’m hoping to adventure into food photography and really wanted something that could make the colors pop. This will definitely do the job.

    This is a wonderful studio/photography/video (whatever) light to join the collection with. We actually have a number of these GVM lights and they all get along quite well. This one is no different.

    The light can get pretty bright and stand its ground within your setup. It’s not the brightest, but those cost a little more anyway, so its to be expected. This is a good mid-range light (not nearly as dim as some of the ultra-affordable options that don’t give much at all). The build of the light is pretty sturdy and operation involves one simple knob that turns it on and off and controls brightness as you continue to turn it.

    Setting everything up doesn’t take much time. Tripod->light-> plugin it in! The softbox is what takes a little time to set up. At first, you might scratch your head on how it goes together, but the poles slide into the softbox enclosure with the end with the attached tip sliding through the loop and into the little black pockets toward the front of the softbox. The other end slides into the round holes of the mount. Run all of them around like this and you’ll start forming the softbox out. Then attach the two diffuser sections (this part is obvious and needs no intel to accomplish). Then the mount spins and locks into place on the light.

    The tripod has good height to it, which should get you through most situations. Anything higher and you’d likely be hanging it from a bar or stick of truss. The tripod feels sturdy enough to take the weight of the light just fine.

    For what you get with this kit, we found this to be a good deal for an LED solution like this. It is really user-friendly and simple to use (no apps or anything, just turn it on). All-in-all, we really liked this light.

    I really like GVM photography studio lighting products. In fact, for nearly all my indoor photo and video projects (and sometimes outdoors too) I use GVM lighting. This was my most recent acquisition, a ‘softbox’. If there’s only one lighting tool in your ‘tool kit’ this should probably be it. The soft box is used more often than any other light, because it’s the most versatile. For it’s size, it has brighter light than many panels, and can be adjusted for sharpness as well as intensity. In your studio, you will probably want to leave this one assembled and standing in the corner or somewhere out of the way. The ‘dish’ or the umbrella looking part is NOT easy to assemble and it takes a little time. Each rib must be fed through the fabric and stopped in the pocket. At first, the ribs might keep falling out of the hub (very loose fit). But, at the end, you will be straining to get them in place. The fabric is very taught and those fiberglass ribs are very stiff. The light is really bright at the high end. There are two diffuser panels. The large one that covers the entire reflective dish. And, a smaller one that just covers the lamp and still allows SOME brighter lighting from the dish. Then, using both of them together would soften the light much more. The electronics could get very warm. But, the lamp has it’s own excellent, super quiet, built in cooling fan that prevents overheating. (Very nice!) The set comes with a carrying bag that is big enough for the cords, power pack, fabrics and ribs. And, the boxes are good enough to use for storage and even carrying to a remote location. I think that a carrying bag or case big enough to carry the whole kit would have been nice. The boxes WERE NOT DESIGNED for constant use like a bag or case would be. But, over all, I’d say that GVM has yet another great product to their line up, and my studio. I’m very pleased. Five stars.

    I think this light is fantastic. I love the size. It¡¯s small, but mighty! I used it to film a small product video commercial and it worked as needed/expected. Lightweight and well constructed. I love that it came with everything needed! The soft box, light stand and mount (especially for the price) I would definitely recommend this to anyone who needs a continuous lighting source. The temperature is great.

    Super powerful light with a reliable bowens mount and fantastic color rendition when it comes to skin tones. These lights are super lightweight, and the smaller softbox matches perfectly! I wish they were made of some sort of aluminum or other lightweight metal, but the low weight is honestly the biggest pro. GVM made another great light, totally worth it

    This is My second purchase of this light, the first one was so good I had to get a second, they’re extremely portable and lightweight, easy to fit in your carry-on if you travel a lot for your shoots. It does not come with a remote or any way to control the light except for the knob on the back of the unit( not really a big deal). CRI is rated at 97 and the color seems to be consistent between the 2 units. it’s Brighter by about 1/3 of a stop than my Godox sl-60W and the internal fan is much quieter as well, the tightening Mechanism is plastic(the whole unit is actually) and extends out really far so depending on what soft box you’re using it might hit against the soft box but that is just a minor issue. overall I love these small form factor Bowens mount lights and i will build out my lighting kit with more lights from GVM. I hope they Make a 300w Version in the future to compete with Aputure’s 300D II. would be nice to include some effects in there as well.
    (Edit.) My Light Didn’t include the colored Gels i’ll try to reach out to the seller and see if I can get some Shipped out. I’ll Update my Review if all goes well

    My reports on this photography equipment ¡°focus¡± on product details or functions not listed on the product page and that can only be known from using the product. My goal is to help others who may be considering this product for their lighting or photography setups.
    This light was purchased to replace my current continuous lighting which consisted of bright CFL bulbs and upgraded Corn LED cylindrical bulbs covered by white flash umbrellas. These were not as powerful and cast a light temp that would always have to be edited in post using lightroom cc.
    When unboxing I realized this is my first GVM product that I have purchased that does not include the black molded zippered case for this light and stand. So I will retain the box since the white foam has been cut to place all the components in their own location.
    When using this GVM light I am able to obtain color as if it were daylight making the skintones perfect. This is contributed to the light having a high CRI of 97+ which is what I was taught is required for professional video lighting.

    The majority of the build is a thick black plastic which keeps both the price and weight very low. This type of housing material makes this extremely portable. I can place this light on the top of the included GVM stand at 79 inches or using another light stand that is over 96 inches high to create a backlit sunset golden hour and I only have to use a small weight bag to keep the stand with this light from tipping over.
    The back of the unit is the most simple light o have in my photography equipment. A power port, power switch, and brightness adjustment knob. I will connect the 30v adapter cord to a small outlet strip with on and off switch so I can control power after setting desired brightness. I am always rationing hours of light use to extend the led life as much as possible. on the back of the unit( not really a big deal).
    The light from an fan or cooling mechanism noise level is Low to practically None which means less white noise when video recording.
    The lighting field starts within inches from the blinding square LED. When I attach the included Bowens mount metal reflector it focuses the light with a tighter circle. The umbrella helps soften or spread out the light to reduce the harsh shadows.
    I am looking forward to purchasing additional Bowens mount compatible soft boxes or snoots for some great video or photography lighting effects.

    Purchased one, now back for another. Best overall deal on a lightweight light with all the essentials you need to get started. I am a total beginner to lighting but there were some things I did not want to compromise on even for a started light. This thing is small, light, has plenty of power, and at a great price. There are other less expensive lights but this thing in my opinion is the best overall value. One of the most critical needs I wanted even for a beginner light was a bowens mount so that if I ever decide to I have the flexibility of already having a light with an industry standard mount. Other cheaper lights don’t always have this or use a different type of mount that will require some sort of adaptor. For some this may not be as important but I wanted that feature.

    I purchased this light box to do remote and online music lessons. It was packaged very well but the instructions could be much better. There are good tutorials about how to set it up for the first time. A bit tricky but I usually keep it together, even when doing remote shoots.
    The build quality is fantastic. Many other boxes in this range have flimsy legs or don¡¯t represent color well. I find that most shoots with this box require very little color grading or correction with plenty of natural contrast.
    This is honestly the cheapest you can go to get an entry-level professional unit.
    There are a few gripes though. The transformer is hanging off the floor when the stand is extended past about 5 feet. Not a deal breaker and expect to get a Velcro tie to secure it to the stand with some slack. Also the box can be frustrating if you decide to break it down fully and go to a different location.
    That being said, the actual light fixture is of fantastic quality with no heat. There is a fan that is audible on the full setting but honestly I¡¯ve never picked it up on a recording.
    Overall, highly recommended! Extremely true and rich interpretation of color and will last a long time if you take care of it!

    My title was a little long, but that sums things up nicely. I have all kinds of lights. They are all LEDs, but the styles are different. I have ring lights, flat panels, high-intensity spotlights, etc. I use different ones for different situations.

    The triple light sets are the most versatile, especially the ones like this one that can generate the full spectrum of color. I have a bigger set of such lights, which is one of the things I like about this set. It can do the same things, but it’s smaller and covers most of the situations that I want to shoot. Traveling lighter is always desirable.

    The light stands work well and are sufficiently sturdy to instill confidence. They pack away neatly and extend to a reasonable height.

    The lights themselves are not wanting for anything. The tough plastic barn doors have good resistance out of the box, but you can adjust the resistance (how easily they move) if it isn’t quite to your liking. With “click-locks” you can keep the light diffusion panels in place, or remove and change them easily.

    With the ability to take two industry-standard batteries per light, the lights are very mobile. I tend to shoot near power sources, but it’s nice to know that I can easily hit the road and shoot in remote places. It’s easy to figure out the manual dials, buttons, and switches to control the functions of the light, but of course, I always read the manual just in case.

    Controlling the lights is handy with the app but the one thing you can only do manually is adjust each light individually. With the app, you can control only one light with the option of having one or more of the other lights mirror the app-controlled light. It’s a nice app and gave me no problems.

    The special effects are good. They look and behave as one might expect. That is to say that the lightning, emergency vehicle, and other special lighting effects could pass for the real thing.

    All the checkboxes that I care about are checked. The quality of the materials, workmanship, design, and of course, function, all get a thumbs up. The case is compartmentalized well, which not only keeps things safe and neatly arranged but makes it easy to pack things away. The case is a rectangular block shape, so it stands on its own and won’t roll around in the back of your car.

    I have all sorts of lights. I need the versatility. But this is the set that I will use most often because of its versatility and compactness. Your needs may be different, but if they are like mine, this is a good set to have in your cinematic arsenal.
