Falcon Eyes Review: Bi-Color Flexible LED Light

I love my Aputure lights, but in this video I'll show you the three specific scenarios for when I choose to use the new Falcon Eyes RX-24TDX II Bi-Color LED Flex Light instead.

As a cinematographer it's important to have a diverse lighting kit. Sometimes a scene calls for a big, soft source and other times you need something that can be gaff taped to a ceiling, but what if a single light can do both of those jobs?

Do you even flex, bro?

I've owned the original Falcon Eyes RX-24TDX for 2.5 years and have used it in a wide variety of situations - it's truly a swiss army knife. Now that I have the new version "II" and have used it for a few months, I wanted to share what's new and how I've been using the light on my last couple of projects.

There are many great lights out right now that I'm excited about, but the Falcon Eyes RX series has been what I've been recommending to friends the most lately because of how practical and versatile they are. You can use them for traditional lighting set-ups (and I do), but they also double as a great YouTube/Zoom light for home studios because they don’t take up a lot of space and they deliver a flattering, high-quality soft source of light.

They come in all sorts of sizes and prices and can be purchased on Amazon. Because they make so many different versions, definitely read the descriptions thoroughly to make sure you are purchasing a bi-color (or RGB if you’re into that) version so you can match the color temperature of your existing room/location.

And here is a link the the Intellytech 155Wh Pocket V-Mount Battery that I use to power this light (and my C300MKIII).
