@@ArtVideoProductions Yes mate, exactly the same thing. And I was lucky, because I found your video "by accident" looking for information on which app to download. Nothing regarding that anywhere else as far as I can see. You might want to edit the title of the video to try to include something about fixing the failed FW upgrade - I don't know, might be too much to add in there...(is it worth uploading another video which includes "Zhiyun Molus app" and "fix bricked" in it? Even if it's just the clip from this one which deals with both?) But I was very grateful and don't think I would have found the solution otherwise!

Wow fantastic review / not review I would call it a tech demo of these lights. I am going to now purchase 2 of these lights after seeing this. BUT there has been many complaints about the battery that comes with the X100 not working after a short period from people whom have purchased them. This seams to be a common issue but I think you have pointed a solution to that with the external power supply. Question now having the lights for a period of time do you still use them and if so have you found the same problem of the battery pack going down?
@ArtVideoProductions
@ArtVideoProductions 6 месяцев назад
Thank you very much for the love. I appreciate that! As for the batteries, I know them like the palm of my hand. 1- Zhiyun updated the batteries a long time ago. If you buy the X-100s now, you won’t have any issues like the previous ones. One important thing to know!: Batteries can be temperamental. DO NOT start the light cranked to to 100% which may SOMETIMES cause the light to shut off for being too much power for a battery to start cold with the light cranked up. I also experienced this phenomena with other brands as well. If it IS set cold to 100%, simply dial the DIM / brightness button all the way to ZERO or press on it until you see zero (Zhiyun has shortcuts for that). THEN, gradually increase the brightness as bright as you like. Follow this procedure, you’ll be a happy camper with the X100 powered by batteries.

Sim e não. Usando bateria V-Mount, e EQUIPADA com USB-C PD (power delivery) não vai ter potência suficiente para atingir 100%. A G60 Vai ser limitada com só 60% e a X-100 com 40%. Compre o adaptador que eu incluí in the description.
@ArtVideoProductions
@ArtVideoProductions Год назад
Yes and no. Using V-Mount battery, and CAPABLE of delivering PD (power delivery), the lights will not have enough power to reach 100%. The G60 will be capped at just 60% and the X-100 at 40%. Buy the adapter I included in the description. Both lights will give you 100% brightness.

No problem, we can go hard core. 1- reset the Bluetooth on the light by pressing the power button 3 times quickly. 2- on your phone, turn off Bluetooth and turn back on 3- quit the App and reboot your phone Remember on thing: every time you use a new device / phone, you have to reset the Bluetooth on the light, the same way you can’t connect your Bluetooth speaker into 2 devices. You gotta “log out” on and login the other.

I have bought both those lights (just a hobbyist photographer / videographer) already and waiting for them to arrive. I have seen tons of videos but yours is just super helpful. From a newbie that has spent countless hours trying to learn and understand… thank you. Excellent content. And a question: how should I lit my wall blue behind my subject in video shoots? If I lit my face more, then the wall color becomes fade blue. Any pointers very much appreciated. Do I need stronger light to make the wall blue? Should the distance between the key light, the subject and my wall should be bigger? Currently it’s 3m approx at my office at home where I do tests.
@ArtVideoProductions
@ArtVideoProductions 6 месяцев назад
1- If you want that blue background to be lit without interfering with the main light, you have to light the background separately with at least 2 lights AND keeping a distance between the subject and the background. So… 1 light for the subject then 2 for lighting the background. Also make sure you control the light intensity to get the desired blue, (lighter or darker). 2- OR… if you are on a tight budget or have only 1 light, you need a BIG Softbox, and in this case, put the subject close to the background and the light at a distance. This way you’ll light everything with 1 light. 3- using a GRID (that black thing with little squares) will HELP the front light lighting the subject NOT to spill light into the background. Thats what a grid is for. To control light spill. That’s what affects the background in brightness or color alterations. All this has to do with the “Inverse Square Law”. Search on RU-vid the inverse square law for lighting and you’ll understand better.
