  • CAME-TV, among many other sellers from China, offers an LED fresnel-type light that may appeal tantalizing to some for it's price point and admittedly it's aesthetically pleasing construction. I decided to take the plunge on this moderately-priced light (approximately $305 USD at the time of this review) and share my thoughts and experiences with it. Are you looking to purchase this light? Then check out this in-depth review for all the tech specs, the good, the bad, and the ugly info about the CE-1500WS.
    This review was shot entirely on the Panasonic GH13 (hacked GH1), an old but trusty camera, using nothing but the kit lens (Panasonic 14-140 f/4.0-5.8), an old but trusty lens!

    I think for close up shots, the Came-TV LED is going to excel with a nice clean white light, but for most other shoots, I think the other two lights would give better 'natural' colours and lighting. One thing to try is custom colour filters, or even try filters with either holes in, or extra layers in parts. this could, for example give a whiter light in one area, and a coloured area near the top. not sure how well this might work, but worth having a play around.

      +Allan Dawes For closeup shots is actually where I'd be least likely to use it. Any time I have to play around with a lot of different filters to get a decent look I'm wasting time on set. But as I said in the video, it's still a decent light so there's definitely still times where it will be useful, but for times when I need closeups and especially when I need solid skin tones, it probably definitely won't be.

      If you want to make lame hip and rap videos, then yes.

    Is there a barn door that doesn't become floppy over time?

    What is the led chip type in this light? Where can I buy the led chip which included in this light?

    I believe your light meter is measuring in Foot Candles and not Lux. I believe 1 Foot Candle = 10 Lux.

      +raredreamfootage Apologies for the delayed response. It is in lumens, but to save space on the LCD you can shift it from 1x, 10x, or 100x which essentially just moves the decimal point. IE if you have it in 10x and read 100 you're actually getting 1,000 lumens. Or in 100x you're getting 10,000 lumens.

    This looks like the same light produced by Godox but only rebranded.

    My girlfriend bought this light for me as a gift. I am so disappointed. I wanted to use it for in my Photography studio. I dnt know what to do. I guess there is no way around that magenta. Terrible. If someone knows any way to get rid of it or to significantly reduce it, please let me know. Thank you.

      +ralfy merced You can definitely throw some +green gel on it to curtail the magenta. You may still have a hard time using it as a quality key light, but it's definitely serviceable as a back, accent, or some kind of kicker light.
