I didn't get one, I got 4 and I'm loving them. Currently powering them with Macbook Power supplies. the fact that you can have three of this lights in a small backpack and that they don't require the bulky power adaptors to run is incredible.

@alloneword154 Год назад

Does it come with batteries

@saopaulosoul8714 Год назад

you know I have seen like 5 or 6 different RU-vidrs do a video on these, and I have to say none of them showed me the results, real working condition results, like doing a headshot shoot. that is what I want to see, dont tell me what I can do with it, show me practical use, because these are not the cheapest lights on the market, and the molus x100 with the kit is about $400 which is a pretty penny! seriously as alway great stuff Arthur!

@DavidZhou Год назад

These have definitely been my favorite news additions to my lighting kit! Definitely bringing these with me to NAB and other trips this year since they’re so compact!

@janzelhill7234 Год назад

im looking for new lights and the timing of this release tells me that more innovation is coming in way. the practicality of being portable is a must have for me doing a one man band. also the price is a very competitive! Hopefully they will release more powerful lights around, 200-300 watts maybe, that still has compact size.

@StevenSmith-nq5xe Год назад

Terrific video, answering all of my questions. Thank you!

@MrFraiche Год назад

Guessing they made this as a portable indoor version? Hopefully they make a weatherproof version next.

@GRJCLyon Год назад

The idea reminds me of the rotolite. I had the 1st version with a few accessories. It had the same issue with battery life even though you had the option of running it off of AA batteries too. I don't know what the new models cost because I rarely shoot anymore but this was in Rotolite price territory and from what I've seen is a superior light system. I'd like to see these head to head for a true comparison. Now, your wife's reaction when you showed her for the first time was hilarious. Love the comedy factor with you guys. Have a great day.

@Ranger7Studios Год назад

These look like they would be great in a studio setting for a small room.

@inquisitvem6723 Год назад

Or for a birthday party in a private dining room at a restaurant. We all know those restaurants have dim lights.

@el_pp_grillo4544 Год назад

This is why I love my Amaran 60d, I wish these Molus X100 weren't so expensive, or they were brighter, because the form factor is outstanding

@docaddy Год назад

Great Insights as always! 👏👏👏

@davect01 Год назад

Great little light for those of us who don't like porting around studio lights

@martinleclaire3499 Год назад

fantastic for a small room

@xablair Год назад

Incredible.

@CartyCantDance Год назад

The new G60 from them is so ADORABLE

@JMBalicano Год назад

So many desk studio setups will probly start rocking these. Hopefully they drop down just a wee bit more in price.

Best review 👍👍🏼👍👍🏼👍🤩🤩🤩🤩

@sidehustlers336 7 месяцев назад

I want at least 2 of these. Zhiun has the kit with battery and bowens mount for 299. Hope the have a back Friday sale soon

@_kucera_martin_ Месяц назад

Great video! :) i also have one Molus X100 and i'm really satisfied. The only thing that bothers me is the narrowness of the reflector in the bowens adapter, how did you solve that the light doesn't shine only in the middle of the softbox? I mean some of that bigger, not the original, which is really small. Thanks a lot for the answer :)

@yohannsphotographyvideogra9542 Год назад

awesome but battery will be something to watch for and the noise level for video as well but it looks totally cool concept

@PostAperture Год назад

Hi the light modifier mount looks smaller than my bowens mounts did you use an adapter to uses larger soft boxes ect? Also how secure dose it feel when mounting larger modifiers? Great vidio BTW.

@flipnap2112 Год назад

they sell a bowens mount adapter for these

@JasmineHuang-rt8vm 10 месяцев назад

The Combo and Pro package has a Bowens Mount Adapter(ZY Mount)-B, through this adapter you can install Bowens accessories

@monucool4029 Год назад

sir i have sony 6100 camera and i need reels and video graphy for photos which is the best lens under 20k

@gigihanmandarin Год назад

"ZHI-YUN" not "Zhai-Yun" - Gerald Undone made an effort of asking the staff how to pronounce the name properly and he nailed it. Great video though Arthur!

@Visethelegend Год назад

So you mentioned the lux but not the distance which it was measured. Also what’s the brightness comparison between this and the new G60

@cyfoel_yang9425 Год назад

MOLUS X100's max illuminance is 17317 lux (with mini-reflector 1m). MOLUS G60's max illuminance is 11194 lux (with mini-reflector 1m).

@patgilmour7263 Год назад

You read my mind, people at weddings might think it's a camera haha.

@xWood4000 Год назад

This light with a v mount battery would be amazing

@xWood4000 Год назад

An adapter to put a v mount sled on the battery slot would be the easiest solution

@volatilepz Год назад

Smallrig better come up with a solution for this!

@intrinsicimagery Год назад

Is there an umbrella mount?

@noctloxiagaming Год назад

@TheChrisDecember Год назад

Hi, does the silicone dome come in the Combo package?

@JasmineHuang-rt8vm Год назад

Yeap

@dariencabreraphotofilms 11 месяцев назад

Do you think that I can use it in outdoor environments ?

@JasmineHuang-rt8vm 10 месяцев назад

Yes, the Combo and Pro package has a Grip battery, so you can use it outdoors

@alangartner7893 Год назад

Hi! What about the counterweight of a big softbox?

@cyfoel_yang9425 Год назад

The official website does not seem to write the counterweight.

@cyfoel_yang9425 Год назад

Are you asking ZHIYUN Parabolic Softbox for G60 & X100?

@inquisitvem6723 Год назад

You mentioned that your wife is a fitness consultant. Does she have a RU-vid channel? I’m starting to get into diets and fitness. Thanks.

@TheLotusManFILMs. Год назад

But how much does it weigh? 5:17 Edit : It's extra super duper light weight.

@ZadieBear Год назад

more skits!

@iSpike Год назад

🇦🇺 All AUD $ - X100 = $719, 60W pocket = $399 and the 60W combo = $549 - All Plus shipping $$$ Anyone still going to pay 💰 that much for these? I’m saving up for a few of the Sirui brand lights for my studio 👌🏻

@takrad981 Год назад

On AliExpress Price about $400+-

@robertopalozzi7263 Год назад

A life battery of 30 minutes means you can not really use it for videomaking. I mean it is not a true "portable" light. But none of those who tested this light is telling which are the real alternatives to the original battery. Are there v-mount batteries or power bank (via DC or usb-c) working with this light properly? Thanks.

@cyfoel_yang9425 Год назад

It has three power supply methods: ① Power via USB charger ② Power via DC power adapter ③ Power via X100 grip battery
