   The Dracast lights we have bought at B&H are a dream to handle and to work with. Easily the best weve had. Cant imagine how we would manage without them. One more thing: it took just four days to ship and deliver from New York to our place in another continent. Well done! – Helgi.

   I purchased 2 bi-color LED1000 in January. These have been my go to lights for most of me productions. They are portable, light weight, and I can use my gold mount batteries on them. The bi-color is great when adding some color mood to different scenes. I absolutely love the quality.of light coming from these!

   I bought two of the 1000’s, Bicolor. Very well built and powerful. Quality of light is very nice and the ability to change light temperature is sweet. I own a ton of Profoto lighting for my stills and have not tried these Dracast LEDs for stills. But I will. For video they are great. Very glad I went with these.

   Our light is the first choice of Semi-pro and professional videographers for all sorts of productions. When they buy our product, they look for an LED panel that’s easy to carry around for travel, is cool touch, bright,color-accurate, and it also puts out a lot of throw. This is a bi-color model, and so you can toggle and blend color temperatures between 3200-5600 Kelvins.

   I use my Led1000 lighting kit for multiple jobs. They work great for interviews, run and gun shoots with use of the gold mount battery adapter so your not dragging power cables around with you. I also use these light when space is an issue or you can’t hide power cables from other lights. They have a tendency of saving you time with complicated lighting set ups. dead end of a hallway that the camera sees everything. They are also very durable, I have used other 1×1 LEDs before and they have had broken dimer nobs and damaged power inputs/power cables that make use frustrating. I have not had any problems with my Dracast lights and I have owned them for over a year. The price is not bad for the quality you get. I have 4 LED1000s Bi color lights and 2 battery kits and have been able to make back my investment on the kit in the first year. I have used Dracasts customer service to replace lost and damaged filters and would give them a 5 star rating.

    Me and my team are starting our small production for short documentaries about foot travelers. We aim to bring the hidden beauties of different countries through the perspective of the actual travelers. Because of the said reason we make sure that we are geared with portable and dependable equipment. What’s best about this bi-color model LED panel is that it help us capture best realistic photos and videos, for it allows us to toggle and blend color temperatures between 3200-5600 Kelvins with ease. It helps us accomplish our goal to show the world the beauties that are still yet to unleashed as if the viewers were already there. I have to say that this bi-color model LED panel is one of our best investment so far.

    I was prescribed by a companion and he suggested me to try this out. Thereafter i simply used this as a test and i was inspired. The best one i have ever used. This device is perfect in various fields like area work, meetings and many more where shading control and gleam free yield are of great significance. Darkening is controlled in a very easy way through a knob that alters the light force with immaterial shading movement. Not only this, the low power consumption of only 60W is profitable for your venture. This device contains almost all the features which a professional needs & it is also very adorable to use and travel,easy to operate in other word its perfect for every photographer.

    I consider myself a semi-pro still and this has got to be one of the greatest lights that I’ve tried. My clients are all raving about their photos. The quality is excellent indoors. I am totally in love with it. This is exactly what I was looking for.

    I’m a freelance journalist and one of the things I do to raise my profile is on-site interviews when stories break out. When I went online to purchase lighting equipment; one of the things I was looking for was something that was lightweight, durable, and stayed relatively cool after being on for a while. The Dracast LED1000 fit all three categories. It’s really easy to take on the go and despite some rough treatment it still works perfectly. Even though it’s a pretty powerful light, I was still able to stand under it for hours on end. I’m glad I got it.

    I work for a person that does online video marketing, and one of the things he does is video interviews. One of the problems we ran into is that although the camera was good, the lighting looked terrible. We had a lot of flickers and the picture looked washed out no matter what. After consulting with a friend of mine who does professional lighting, he turned me on to the Dracast LED1000 and I couldn’t be happier. My clients videos went from looking like it was done in his mother’s basement to looking like it was shot in a professional studio. It’s weird that a little lighting can change everything, but it’s true; and I would recommend this setup to anyone looking to take things to the next level.

    I am a professional wedding photographer & videographer. I am always looking for ways to maximize the quality of the photos I take. After all, our work is our reputation. Pardon my long story, but I do have a lot to share. I have a co-worker who likes to bring their own equipment sometimes. We had to coordinate on a wedding shoot for the video and photos. While we were working I noticed that the quality of my colleagues lighting was much better than my own. I just thought that the positioning was probably the factor and I had to work a lot harder to try and match the lighting quality. When I was shooting the wedding photobooth pictures I did not really care for where I was stationed because the lighting was poor and I had to adjust my lighting so many times to accommodate the people I was photographing. During a break, my colleague noticed that I was spending a lot of time between being behind the camera and adjusting my lighting. He felt bad and then took me to a lamp that he had set up where he was stationed. I saw a small, simple lamp that didn’t look like much, but then he turned it on! What I saw made me seek out this lamp before my next shoot the following weekend. My co-worker was nice enough to let me use his light for the rest of the night as I was shooting my photobooth pictures. The next weekend I had my new light in tow and did very well. This lamp has really improved the quality of my work and time because I notice that I did not have to edit the pictures nearly as much as the weekend previous. I also notice that this small lamp is easy to pack up and carry from location to location. What do I really like about these lights? Well, the lighting quality is is bright, color-accurate, and really does pack a punch. I also like the fact that you can toggle and blend the color temperatures between 3200 and 5600K. My employer actually did order a few more of these lamps for us to take on shoots because they noticed how much time editing this lamp has saved us.
