Camera lights

[kyle_ogle2]

Any recomendations? Im not big into cameras and stuff, and my panasonic is TERRIBLE with lighting in the dark, so i figured it was about time to purchase a camera light. so yea, if anyone has any links to any lights that you know are worth buying, please post them

I apologize in advance if i dont make sense.

If you're stuck, try an LED light, that just might work.

But i doubt it will.

I dunno if your camera has a shoe mount or not, but go his up bhphoto.com and check out their video on camera lighting section and look at the bescor stuff... bescor is known for having some of the best lighting.

tape a flashlight on top of it.
BAM you save money and start a trend.

allen thought of that a long ass time ago, but on the bottome that way he could still use his external mic.

this is what I did because my light wouldn't fit on the regular hot shoe mount with the handle. I jsut found a shitty film slr and ripped the hot shoe off and shoegooed it to the bottom of my handle..works amazing

Jason, You should have got a Bescor 50/100 on a VX1K. Then the extra spent money for a better mic cause sony's mics suck.

Its a VX2100

 

[conordavidson]

I know, i said that he should have got a VX1k instead, but put a 50/100 so you don't have to deal with the crap lux rating on the 1000. Then since he would've saved a lot of money you could have got a better mic, cause sony's mics suck. It was just advice.

I hate all the VX1 hype, vx21 and vx1 picture isn't too much different and you don't have to worry about your camera breaking down and spending money to get it fixed because it wasn't made 10 years ago. You can also buy a different bayo ring for the mk1 death so you don't need a vx1 for the best fish. I would recommend a dvx100b to anyone over a vx though ahha.

If you can afford it, that is.
