Those lights are designed for videos. I've got some and I've been underwhelmed with the results. With an external flash you can slow the shutter speed right down and bring out the detail in the background, it looks far better.

Plenty of people take stills from videos om their phone and really rate that too. Look outside the fishing world, photographers use flashes for a reason, they are far superior. LED lighting is a good compromise though if you don't need perfect results

Get yourself a godox 860 with a trigger, slap a magmod booby on it and shoot TTl. It gets no easier or better. Pro tog over 40 years, just saying...

Just to hijack the thread. Does anyone know where you can get a light like the rhino beam v2 that tilts other than ali express? Rhino are doing 2 for £56 and when I try and find the ulanzi one that's identical they are about £30 each

Reason I say not Ali express is because I need the lights for next week

Delivery times are the issue with Aliexpress, I need them for next week. My own fault for leaving it last minute

Can only find them on amazon for £25 each, similar price to rhino for 2 of them. Oh well that's what I get for not being organised

When I click the click they come up as £25, does Amazon have an algorithm knowing I'm desperate so put the price up for me haha
