How good it will be to shoot cooking video, when i shoot handheld and have a 80w LED already in the ceiling?
Will it work as a fill light?
Will it work as a fill light?
That’s impossible to say without knowing the distance and diffusion of the other light. But most likely, yes.
da%^ this review sucks!!!!!!!!!
And just remember when you're all done playing with it you can put it back in your pocket that sounds painful. That's why they made zippers unless you're Sam Kinison then the wife puts it in the freezer... we all need a little humor in Our Lives🤷🎍
Thank you a lot for the review! It was very helpful!
I didn't know Andy Bernard was so into cameras....
anybody know how long these lights last
Can i mount the aputure Alm9 to my desk top screen for zoom call meetings?
I recommend ANYTHING that will cast a little light on your face ;-)
@@photojoseph Thanks, - would you recommend Apaurture ALM( for desktop to do zoom calls nad youtube videos or would you recommend something bettter - I am on a tight budget?
You can put it anywhere you like. It doesn’t come with a “monitor mount” but you can rig something up.
jajajaaj, hola como estas?,
jejejeje.
Bien, y tú?
jejejeje.

I use the AL-M9 as stage light for small shows. It has one serious design flaw: it is dependent on the battery being charged, even if connected to USB. If the battery is not charged the brightness is much much less.
I see. Well I suppose if you need a truly powered LED light than there are probably better options than this one for you.
@@photojoseph Thats not it. The problem is, you can not use it endlessly even when plugged in. You have to charge it when off and then you can use it fully plugged in. The battery drains when using it plugged in (at least with my charger).
Got it. So basically, plug it in before it dies or you’re in trouble, right?
@@photojoseph Correct, but you HAVE to switch it off to load the battery to get full brightness. Don't know how long loading is needed, just discovered this, I thought it was broke.
You mean with a low/dead battery, plugging it into USB and turning it on, you get less brightness then if it’s fully charged? Interesting… how long does it take before it gets enough charge to deliver full brightness? I guess it make sense… the capacitor probably isn’t powerful enough to both charge AND deliver full brightness. I wonder how much charge it needs for the power unit to deliver all of its power to the light instead of splitting it to the battery?
Is this light worth for working on nightbars/discos/Nocturne events?
Yeah, I think it’d work. It’s not a huge amount of light but for adding a kicker and not overpowering the ambient light, it’s worth a try!

Awesome! (Which part was that?)
May I know the software you used for editing the video?
'Ooo, a new PhotoJoseph vid! I'll watch that after I've finished this Godox instruction video... Here we go... Is he drunk? I can't believe it! He's absolutely slaughtered...! He's slurring his words and everything! He just said good morning too! I can't believe he's this ratted in the morning! Hmm, the music's a bit funny too? Oh... It's still on 1/2 speed from the last video... He's not drunk.... I need a drink...' =¬)
Value to Value. Have you seen that Youtube have started to enable a new Sponsor a channel feature? Not sure if this would also be useful for you?
I have… AFAIK it’s not available to me
