Product arrived on time and in perfect condition. Downloaded the app to control color changes and it works great! Have not done a shoot as of yet.

I didn’t do that much research on these, but they looked good from the blurb on Amazon. So I got two. I was not prepared for the adjust-ability and ease of use. They are light in weight, appear to be well made and seem to function properly. The smartphone networking features worked right out of the box and amused me to no end. These lights are replacing several big other lights I have. They are a big space savings for my small video “studio.”
Tami –
Love these lights used them on a shoot today

My reviews on my camera equipment purchases ¡°focus¡± on product details or functions not listed on the product page and that can only be known from using the product. I want to help others who may be considering this product for their lighting or photography setups.
My product demonstration and story mode videos required a set of RGB lighting that could use the standard lighting poles for mobility or offsite location video shoots.
Items and accessories used for this review that are not included with this GVM 800D RGB lighting bundle are 2 GVM NP-570 sony type batteries, my iphone XR, and a weighted bag for tripod / aluminum lighting stands.
The lights have a LED panel of 8 inches by 8 inches. If you leave the attached barn doors – directional lighting panels then you get a 7 1/2 inch wide by 6 1/2 inch high rectangle panel. The barn doors arrive attached to the lights and can be removed with a L hex tool or by turning the round bolt heads. This size panel still provides plenty of brightness to paint the background with light or create an illuminated setting with the special modes.
These lights offer 4 different methods to control the settings of both panels.
ROTATE: The first mode is for manual setting on each light by using the rotating knobs, hence the name ROTATE. The BRR or brightness knob is 0-100 while the right knob also pushes in to cycle through the 3 settings for HUE/SAT/CCT.
MASTER/SLAVE: This setting allows you to setup control of multiple units by channel using RF radio frequency. I tested the range and it starts to lose signal or not change as quickly when you pass the 20 feet mark and using line of sight. This is more than enough distance to place behind a backdrop or around a vehicle for changing your light settings without having to visit each light like in ROTATE mode. For my testing the MASTER light was set to the same channel and was powered by the included 15v adapter and the slave was two batteries. This is usually how I record with an outlet or power strip for the main video equipment and go cordless for lighting away from the camera. I only purchased the 800D- RGB 2 pack so I could not test changing the MASTER channel to control 2 additional lights with each on separate channels.
WIFI Mode: In this product test I set the Wifi Mode channel to 1 and second light panel to SLAVE with same channel 1. This requires you to download the GVM_EASY app for your smart phone and connect to the GVM_LED wifi ssid on your phone. My test was using app version 1.9 on my iphone XR with ios 13.4.1 I discovered that I can change the lights to be different colors by setting my first light to WiFi with channel 1 and set the second light to SLAVE channel 2. To do this I roll the channel number wheel on the app to 2 and I control the slave light settings for CCT,SAT, and BRG. But when I roll back to Channel 1 I am only adjusting the setting for the light with setting WiFi Channel 1. The Channel 2 light remains at on the light settings I previously selected on the app. If I leave the color wheel and three setting sliders to their settings from Channel 1 and roll to Channel 2, both lights immediately change to the same settings from Channel 1, so be mindful when using the app and channel tip.
As with all my GVM video and lighting equipment this set comes with the durable molded black case with a velcro wrap to keep the two carrying handles together. A bright white GVM Great Video Maker logo appears on one side so Remember to lay this case flat with logo facing up. This way when you unzipped the case the lights will be on the bottom in their molded spots and the stands with cords will be on top.

Amazing, using it for my YouTube channel
Danny Figs –
This is great for lighting up my virtual meetings and also has various settings for lighting and being able to do videos. Lightweight and easy to store with the bag that comes with it. Can easily access it when i need it.
J.T. Shaver –
You’re probably buying these for the RGB capabilities, but they are surprisingly very accurate for all video lighting.
I tested with my Sekonic C-800 and got the following:
@ 3200K
CRI: 97.5 (R9: 95.4, R13, 97.7, R15: 99)
TLCI: 98
SSI: 85
@ 5600K
CRI: 95.8 (R9: 87.1, R13: 95.9, R15: 94.6)
TLCI: 99
SSI: 75
If you don’t know what all this means, just trust me since I do. These lights perform as well or better than non-RGB lights that costs 4-5x as much, which shocked me. I expected them to be ok for RGB usage, but they really are one of the best all-around small LED panels out there.

My hat is off to GVM on this 800bead count LED!! The settings are very precise to achieve the perfect lighting for many situations, so the lights have almost an unlimited amount of options to achieve the perfect look you imagine. There is an app that has control points so you can get the numbers to program into your camera to make the perfect Iris.
The kit comes with Barn doors, two adjustable sturdy tripods , a light diffuser, power cord and it gets better. There are optional battery inputs for outdoor shoots as well if you’re on the the go (those are sold separately) I have to say I love the fact that they put this in as an option GVM really went all out on these in the overall performance and flexibility it offers in composing your shots!
The set comes with a soft carrying case and is very light and comfortable to carry. It¡¯s made for convenience, easy set up, and best of all accessibility during outdoor and indoor shoots. GVM really thought about what filmmakers go through and this kit is so impressive for any shot, parties and/or events. I love the fact that GVM cares about their quality and customers enough to put all these amazing features and to think of almost every situation such as quick set up. It saves so much time for you too keep shooting those wonderful lighted shots that only GVM can give
There are some preset modes that do these effects (mimicking broken light bulb, a TV screen, police car’s lights,paparazzi, and even a thunder storm mode. Which will save you a lot of time in the editing room.

I highly recommend this product because it¡¯s very simple to use and the lighting is incredible!

I can’t get over how high quality these lights are. I love that you can use a battery or plug into a wall. The light is bright and very adjustable. These are fantastic !
Do It All Entertainment –
Fast shipping, nice sturdy stands, high quality lights and they came with the instructions. I bought this for the different color features for my photoshoots and events. I haven’t had the chance to use them yet but I’m sure they will get the job done fine.
Mike Allred –
This is a really great upgrade to my photo and video lighting needs. The pair of GVM RGB 800D has a ton of features, I’m just blown away by the value and uses I’ve found for them so far. I do a little photo work, video production, and even have been using these to enhance my remote work/video call lighting for a dim office – it really makes a difference there and I didn’t see that bonus coming until I set them up.
First off, the kit comes in a really nice carrying case that appears to be ready for some serious transport without damage. There’s a bunch of stuff in there, so the nice handled case makes for a pro look when shooting remote. You basically get 2 800D RBG lights, 2 power supplies, and 2 stands in the little suitcase. They took about 3 minutes to unpack, plug in and mount on the stands. Super easy. The stands are sturdy, around 6 feet plus the light on top – plenty of adjustments in between.
You can use the lights individually, setting everything on the back of each (all of the settings are in the product description – so I won’t duplicate those) and the dials and buttons are simple to use. A quick switch to primary/replica mode on the back makes it super easy to control both with the primary light – no setup needed, no wifi, nothing. Just works out of the box using IR between the lights. Love that feature. From there you can do a ton of other things including installing the GVM Easy app (I used the Android version in the Play Store) and control the pair from your phone. There are also a bunch of preset disco/lightning/flash bulb/party/police/etc. modes that are going to have my kids getting some fun out of these things too – another bonus (or might be perfect for the live entertainment folks out there). Can’t wait to order some batteries for these and take them remote for some shoots where lighting will make all the diff. Color accuracy is pretty amazing, seriously this is one of the best values for the price I have in my growing set of photo/video gear. I added these 2 lights to a GVM non RGB one that I love and my only problem now is wanting to replace my old stuff with more of these… soon haha. Hope that helps!

The first thing you need for photography is good light, one of the most important things to take with you after your camera is a top-notch light.
Now, I know what you¡¯re thinking – using artificial lights is expensive and time-consuming and difficult to learn.
Back in the day using artificial lights was expensive and time-consuming and yet difficult to learn and the lights were big and heavy.
But these days, there are all kinds of portable, and affordable lights for photographers.
Add visual interest and drama with any color of the spectrum using these amazing GVM 800D RGB lights, these come equipped with 252 led beads of warm and cold color. And 252 pieces of red, green and blue RGB lamps creates an adjustable color light for different types of shots
Likewise, it offers tons of adjustments, from the color temperature to the brightness to the color saturation, video lighting panel illuminates a variable white balance from tungsten-daylight 3200K-5600K color temperature,
LED Panel light can use two modes to power, you can use AC adapter and Sony F750/970 battery (not included) to supply power outdoor or indoor.

The lights work well. I use them, with some diffuser boxes on them, for my zoom video teaching.
First of all, they memorize their state. So if you don’t want much fuss, just plug them in a switched outlet, and turn them on from there. They will continue exactly as when switched off.
Let me share the experience with the app. The app seems to control the lights better than the buttons.
You first set the lights. You put the first on “WiFi”, the second one on “slave”. Make sure they have the same channel. They create a WiFi network called GVM_LED.
Switch your phone WiFi to GVM_LED (this is good, since it means GVM won’t communicate with who knows what outside) put in the password from the user guide, open the app, make sure that the app and the lights are on the same channel.
You may wait a long time if not forever in your iPod or phone UNLESS you reset the connection.
This makes sense since things look for other things after a reset. That explains why some people report here that they only managed to connect the first time.
So in the menu you push the red “Exit System”. That’s crucial.
After that, you push in the same menu “Switch Device” and choose the RGB lights.
This was the reset. After that, the app connects fast.
You may need to go through this again if the lights are switched off or your phone powers down. Don’t forget the “switch off” part.
After you make the light adjustments, unless you want to change the settings live, just can use the switched power strip method, as the lights will remember their state.

Las luces son muy buenas para el precio que tienen, sus diferentes efectos de iluminaci¨®n hacen que sean muy vers¨¢tiles para utilizarlas en grabaciones de v¨ªdeo.
Family shopper –
Absolutely love the new video light! It is able to mimic 8 kinds of the scene lights including TV, Candle, Cop Car, Lightning, Paparazzi, Disco, Party, and a Bad bulb giving each just the right lights so your shot looks authentic and to your exact preference every time.
The app is easy to use and easily controls the video light which comes equipped with a Mobile App control function. Simply download the GVM app in your app store (i used Google Play) and it adds the convenience to control the accurate color and temperature you need for your shot at the touch of your fingers.
Very simple to set 1 light as a master light and make adjustments to it giving it a master roll and then you can easily control all lights with the master one no matter how many other lights you wish to expand to. Great for getting the perfect scene without having to adjust each light individually and can add or remove lights at your leisure.
It has 168 LED Beads and 84 RGB beads which makes it no surprise to be so easily adjustable. This video light has adopted the American Chip, and has a life more than 100000 hours which is phenomenalamounts of use. It’s sturdy design with aerospace aluminum alloy Casing to effectively help the LED light to better disperse heat, so you never have to worry about overheating. LED Panel light has the ability to use two different sources of power, you can use AC adapter which is included for quick plug in access or you can purchase an outside battery source such as Sony F750 battery (not included) to supply power outdoors or without wires.

Absolute love these lights, I returned a $60 pair and decided to spend a bit more, my budget was $200 so went for the GVM, so far perfect, I bought the batteries which cost another $100 for 4 and charger, lasts about 5 hours on 2 batteries per light.. Note they will not RUN on 1 battery alone.. Would defo buy again
Rodney whittenberg –
Love these lights. They are built surprisingly well for the price, lighting looks good. Packed full of features.
Wonderwoman –
These video lights have changed my video and picture quality. I got the set of two but I saw there¡¯s sets of three available as well. They come in a carry case so they are portable and convenient to transport white doing photoshoots at locations too. They have built-in light modes like party, bad bulb, paparazzi, etc. There is a setting for master and slave where I only have to tune the settings on one light and the other video panel automatically adjusts to the same settings. It¡¯s pretty neat so I don¡¯t have to repeat and spend extra time doing so. The color temperature goes from 3200K to 5600K so I can easily set the mood of my photoshotos with these light panels. My husband prefers to control the lights using the app rather than the controls behind the panels and the app functions seamlessly as well. All I needed is included in this kit. Well built and quality lights.????

I’m a fan of GVM and own several off their products. As a pro videographer, I’ve owned and heavily used three 480LS lights for mobile productions over nearly 2 years. While properly cared for, they have seen a tough working life! I primarily purchased the 800D’s for their RGB functionality to add accent/fill/creative lighting. The 800D is identical in size and layout to the 480LS light heads, which are fantastically small for travel and mobile setups. The 800D has very similar power output to the 480LS which is more than ample for my interview/talking head shots as a key/fill/hair. Then the fun begins with the RGB options. The lights are easy to control once you figure out the menu order to access all of the features. I won’t comment on the APP as I have never used it (I’m the type to manually set everything so I’m sure what the settings are. The 800D has great saturation and hue controls. Don’t expect a light head of this size to wash an entire room with color, other than subtle. For nicely colored accent/fills/specific wash shots, these really shine. The Scene special effects are a little gimmicky, but offer some fun for specific shots you might want to incorporate into a production. All-in-all, GVM comes through again with a very good product.

Having thousands of dollars worth of professional lighting (Lowell, Kino-Flo, etc.), I was looking for a low-heat, portable lighting system. The GVM RGB LED lighting has been a nice surprise. Not withstanding the reasonable cost, these lights provide quality lighting with flexibility in color temperature and intensity control when used in an appropriate setting. In a reasonably-sized studio or on-location shoot, the GVM LED’s provide adequate key and fill lighting. They put out approximately 50% of the light output of my Lowell Rifa 1000W softbox without the heat generated by halogen lamps. They weigh a fraction of my Kino-Flo 4′ 4-bulb system with faster speed of set-up. While I would not directly compare them to the Rifa’s or Kino-Flo’s, they fill a need for portability, light weight, low-heat and flexibility that meets the needs of many shooting situations, if used with proper lighting techniques. The RGB color effects have some interesting uses for background lighting.
Yanna –
I have a YouTube channel (It’s Simply Yanna) and these lights are PERFECT for recording hair tutorials, makeup, EVERYTHING! I use one light as a background with the light facing the wall behind me instead of spending so much time trying to put up different background papers and the other as my key light. I LOVE the special effects like the police lights and disco also! They are lightweight and don’t take up much space. These lights are so great! I’m definitely happy with this purchase!
Brantley Smith –
We¡¯ve have been using the lights for our virtual church service. They are so easy to move and lightweight! They are brighter than other budget LED par cans we had purchased. We are getting great use out of them and the customer service from GVM has been great. Shoutout to Ken!
My favorite feature has to be the ¡°master/slave¡± sync. I found the app to be cumbersome, but the master/slave experience is awesome. I¡¯ve not tested range yet but have had no issues on our 30 ft stage having them evenly spaced. I enjoy being able to turn one knob to adjust all the lights. So easy!!!
Jerome –
I’m using my lights for portrait photography and YouTube
Samm –
Perfect as advertised! I wish the app was a bit more versatile but the product itself is great!
Amazon Customer –
So easy to use if you can read from right to left. These are anazing.
A Meisenheimer –
What can I say these lights are Phenomenal! These are great all around for any film application and are extremely versatile. I love the fact that you can use these with batteries and take them anywhere. If you are looking for rgb lights do yourself a favor and grab these!
Spyc Babe –
These lights have helped me greatly with production value! Lighting is key in any video production and this lights everything up how I need it to. The range of colors the different flashing options are also a plus when trying to set a scene.. I would recommend this for any new directors that are looking for quality at a good price
David Serna –
The company i work for has litepanels but I needed something for personal. These are no litepanels but they great for the price, these also have rgb which the ones at work are just bicolor. In case you are still unsure, GVM customer service is easy to work with too if you have any issues.

IRFAN KHAN –
Good for beginners.
Stephen Bisaccia –
These lights find a way to be incorporated in almost every shoot I’ve gone on since I got them.
Sir_Kibble –
I’ve no experience with the app, since I only use it for still photo shoots. Tripods, cables, and lights all fit in the provided case. I wouldn’t check the case as baggage on an airline, but it’s plenty durable for moving everything to and from locations. Configuring settings via the rear controls is simple. If you’re planning on using these outside, you may want to consider upgrading the tripods or getting some sandbags, as at max height(over 6′), they could blow over.

These have helped me everywhere from live streaming to “home movies” to selling online A1. The Bluetooth connection is ruthlessly solid
Chester –
I do a lot of music video work and usually rent RGB lights for my shoots. I decided to buy these lights and give this brand a try as it seems affordable and has the RGB capabilities and scene effects I usually need.Happy to say that everything worked as advertised and the app was easy to get up and running.I found no issues with the quality of the light, these are great for small crews because they’re not heavy, they pair quickly with apps, and you can adjust color temperature, tint, brightness, and special scenes from your phone.My only downside is that they’re not crazy, if I’m shooting in a bigger space, I’d need more punch. Considering their size and price, the quality it offers is still a good deal.I’m a fan of this brand now and will probably consider buying the 1200D for more lighting power.
Carl –
super easy to use
Hale –
I’m a film student in Canada building my own small lighting kit for shows and personal projects and so far I’m very happy with the lights. Even in USD/CAD, these are some of the best priced RGB LED sets I could find, with great reviews and pretty quick delivery.The only downside for me is that with the softbox installed, the light can’t be tilted down far enough, but I’ve been able to fix it so far. The shade can also look a little choppy, but that can be fixed by adding extra diffusing gel.

You’ll get the following two: lights, posts, power and poles. They all pack nicely in a convenient carrying case to take the system with you anywhere. You can use one or two lights. When using two lights, you can control both lights from one panel. There’s a mobile app for control, and even some special effects, making these possible for use as a DJ or stage light.
Byron –
This is a great compact lighting fixture that works great in my small studio. They provide enough lighting for my video production needs, with fully adjustable dials to control color temperature and light intensity.The tripod is lightweight and can be extended quite high.Overall, the presentation of the product is good. It comes with a nice padded/soft tote bag to store everything. When opening it,Everything looks organized and protected in individual felt bags, so they are in a good setting.

The GVM 800D-RGB LED Studio 2-Video light kit is perfect, I paired it with the light and it’s great, my kids are so happy, there are so many different colors! Easy to set up, the bag keeps everything in the best place!

This lighting set is unreal! At 7 feet tall, it was perfect for my wine webinars online. My computer’s dim lights are not enough. These worked. They provide the perfect light so you can see through the wine without appearing like artificial light.
Caesar –
I designed these lights for photography and video projects. I was not disappointed. They are easy to set up and the quality of the lights and stand seems great. I love that you can adjust the colors, it totally opens up more things we can do with them! I ended up taking great pictures of my foster kittens with the lights and boy did it work! They were adopted quickly and I keep getting compliments on the wonderful photos I took! Mine stands out compared to others and it’s all thanks to these studio lights! Highly recommend them! I like that it comes with a case that keeps everything safe and compact.

Perfect lighting for small studios, YouTube and some smaller studios.Film Production. Very easy to use and set up. Color quality at RGB settings or 3200-5600 is very good. I find it worth the money.

There are many of these lights available at great prices. I got these set up in no time and the wireless interconnection between them was very easy to get started. I like that they show Kelvin colors in the settings – easy for color matching later.

I just got my light kit and I’m so happy. Like other reviews have said, these lights are for budget-conscious professionals, but are a great option for any project that requires the flexibility, color variation, and phone light control of a professional light. Also, Ken’s tech support was knowledgeable and fast with no waiting time and resolved my issue immediately.

I broke a barn door and I’m about to buy a new one. But instead, they helped me and replaced it immediately! The lighting works great, glad I made the right choice!
Eric –
I bought two sets. I bought the first one to use as lighting for a church youth group room. I like that the lights are RGB so I can set the colors to match our graphics. Super easy to use, we can set it up in 5 minutes.I also rented a photo studio and found that some of my guests could benefit from continuous lighting for their photos and videos, so I bought another kit! A few months after I bought it, one of the power cords seems to have shorted out and won’t work. I emailed GVM’s customer support a copy of the B&H receipt and they mailed me a replacement line! Very happy with this kit or GVM support!
Taylor –
Bought these lights to fill out my home studio and they are amazing! With these lights, I can be more creative with my photos and videos with the RGB settings these lights provide. Their 1% increment settings allow for precise control, and the stands are researched and provide just the right height! They are user friendly and easy to set up! This is a great first step for any photographer or videographer looking to start getting creative in the studio!
Leo –
This is a lightweight set for a quick and easy-to-carry setup.They complement my main lights but can be used on their own for intimate shots. These stands are a bit flimsy, but the lights are strong and well made. The light output of the small lights is very good, and the RBG gives me the option to add color accents to the scene. For the price, you get unbeatable value.
Sean –
I’ve used them on a few shoots so far and they’re all great. Granted, they may not be the most durable or the most powerful, but for the price, you’re getting great value for money. Some settings aren’t as progressive as others have said, but overall I’m happy with the purchase.

This lamp is the best value for money. I already have a 520S bi-color and want RGB. Headlights, affordable and professional.

Albert –
Great light for video production
Shehaan Thahir –
I also purchased the Godox SL60W a month prior to this to use as my key light.
The colours and app control on this is so great that I rarely take the godox out with me. what I love about this setup is that you can have it all set up and ready to shoot within 5 minutes. Really does come in handy when you are shooting run & gun and need some lighting without having to spend hours planning it out.
Would highly recommend getting the Batteries for the unit as then you can literally take this anywhere to get any kind of shot.
We are travel videographers. so this has been an absolute game changer.
Will –
Excellent photography light. And a variety of different shades of light. Recommend to anyone.
Victor –
I love these lights. I bought the first set for our youth ministry so we could add color to our space with lights. I love how easily we can change the colors weekly to match our series graphics. Setting up and breaking down for volunteers is super easy in our mobile church. Then I bought another set for my studio. I’m a photographer, but I have videographers who rent my studio and want to have some continuous LED lights for them to use since I only have flash. I used them for video first and they were perfect!
MixedbyScience –
Great value! You don’t get much better than this at this price. Even if you use as secondary lighting, it’s still worth it.

Thank you for helping to scale the clothing display.

I have used these before and just bought a pair for myself. They are nice and bright, good RGB lights would recommend

I think these lights are worth the price. They are really smart and you get what you pay for. The only annoying thing is having to plug them in. I just bought the batteries so they can be carried around. The lights are great! Definitely recommend them.
George –
These lights are a great deal! They work amazing for what I need. I am very happy and will recommend these to anyone looking for a lighting kit.
Joshua –
I’m a novice photographer so trying to add soft lighting when the room is dark. It comes in a soft bag that covers the light, followed by a soft/hard case. It doesn’t have poles for standing, so you’ll need to add those. If you’re making one of the different scenes in a video you want, such as disco, etc., the different modes seem interesting. Looks well made and sturdy. The barn door is plastic and looks flimsy, but anyone who has used this device knows how to handle it properly.
Hubery –
We purchased this kit to use with the GVM 800D-RGB LED Studio 3-Video Light kit. Five lights are great for illuminating people and products! We highly recommend this kit, and remember to purchase the Angler Collapsible Softbox for 12×12 LED Lights.
Marsh –
There’s a lot of rubbish out there, and it’s nice to receive what I think is a well-made product. Items are well packaged and building materials are very good. The lights are steady. They work as advertised. The stand is made of stronger metal than you’ll see on similar lamps. Overall I am very satisfied and have purchased 6 more for our production kit.
Simon –
These lights are absolutely perfect for indoor and outdoor use, very effective I got it 5 times to start
Morgan –
For professional still photographers and starting to get into video, these lights are the best. Great light, well made, out of the box, in minutes. Love the fact that they come with a stand and case.
Andrew Eckenrode –
Great cheap lighting setup with lots of adjustment from iOS app. Can connect them via app to work together or change them independently. Great deal and good starting place – suggest getting soft box attachment too

This is perfect for the lighting I need to provide. Versatile in various settings and comes with a very nice travel case. Carefully designed to facilitate every situation. Works with a battery pack if you need to move around, but hardwires are great for stationary situations. A great scaler unit.

We were in line to buy some Aperture lights, but they were backordered. We decided to give them a try, they were more than enough for our needs! We are a church building a movie studio during Covid and these lights make all the difference. I am most impressed with the output size ratio, they are super compact and easy to transport. We may end up ordering two more to replenish these.

Hands down best set of lights for the price. Only two issues is dimming the brightness only works so much and the party modes cannot be controlled by wifi.

When you’re watching videos all day, using a ring light with glasses can interfere with other people’s viewing. If you delay these lights correctly, you can eliminate reflections when you wear glasses and watch videos.

These lights have a variety of functions and are neatly packaged in the provided housing. This is exactly what I needed to upgrade from an incandescent clip on a floodlight to something affordable.
Luther –
Having a daylight lighting option is perfect, but also including RGB lighting makes this kit perfect for more experimentation. The actual bracket itself may be stronger with the screws, but nothing too worrisome. Overall, this is a great starter kit.

It was just as the ad stated

Amazing lighting. I used some other lights in Brazil, some simple ones, and now everything has changed. I can control every color and color space for my shots. I use it almost every day in my projects. thanks.
Andy –
Great light and the kit is nice and small. They also shine a lot for the price.
Philip –
The ability to change the frequency of light by turning the knob vrs to insert a filter is great on its own, but having a continuous frequency change instead of just the filter hard stop frequency is really useful. The lights can also be operated by batteries or alternating current. This makes it very easy to set up without having to worry about us routing the AC line’s power. I would give it more than 5 stars if I could.
Marcus –
Great price! I use them as rgb accents and fill lights when shooting product reviews.
Frank –
It does exactly what I need. Lighting the scene two is enough
Bennett –
These lights are perfect for home video/photography studios as well as outdoors in different environments. They can be powered using a battery pack (sold separately) or plugged into the wall. You can download an app to control brightness and color settings. Keep in mind that the app still needs some work. Don’t let apps stop you. These are really great lights.
Derrick –
Great product. It brightens up the areas we need at night. This product is very user friendly. Having one light panel control the functions of other panels makes things easier.One of the three light panels showed screen damage during shipping, but they shipped replacement panels in time. So overall it was a good experience.

I am new to lighting and this lamp was recommended to me. I can’t say enough about how easy it is to use and how good it is. The customer service is also top notch and they went out of their way to help me. Highly recommend this lamp from this company!

Initially, there were some misunderstandings, but after discussing with the seller, the seller went the extra mile to get things done for me at no extra cost. Although there was some delay, the seller managed to do it, for which I am very thankful and grateful to the seller. The seller also communicated well with me. I would recommend buying from this seller.

The lighting for my new video is great! This is a great professional lighting kit with app control! We have side lights and front lights which is very handy if you are just starting a video or photography business or you are an expert, the lighting kit comes with a carrying case, the app is very easy to use, brightness is easy even for non-experts control, RGB mode creates the best lighting for my needs!
Isaac Espinosa –
Awesome lighting, but to make it work you need two np batteries
Patrick –
They’ll probably sell this for a higher price because it’s worth it. Wow! What a great lighting kit, not only for videography but a great addition to the lighting in my space. touching!
Dennis –
I bought two sets. I bought the first one to use as lighting for a church youth group room. I like that the lights are RGB so I can set the colors to match our graphics. Super easy to use, we can set it up in 5 minutes.I also rented a photo studio and found that some of my guests could benefit from continuous lighting for their photos and videos, so I bought another kit! A few months after I bought it, one of the power cords seems to have shorted out and won’t work. I emailed GVM’s customer support a copy of the B&H receipt and they mailed me a replacement line! Very happy with this kit or GVM support!
Herbert –
I’ve been a commercial photographer for 40 years and can tell you these little lights are great for desk work. I’ve always liked to use continuous lighting, but almost always use strobe lighting because continuous lighting produces so much heat. These are super cool. Also, any minor repairs to my strobe light outweigh the three light kits for these LED lights. You can’t beat that. There was a small problem with one of the lights when I received them, but it was replaced with no problem and shipped the same day! ! ! I will buy another set as my product setup usually requires more lights. Please rest assured to buy!

I purchased a GVM 800D and 560AS kit to start recording an online class. This is my first light kit and I am very happy with my purchase! I was also impressed by the way the kit was packaged, the product has a dust bag for not only the lights but also the stand. It also works for my recordings while traveling.
Oscar –
One of the best purchases I’ve ever made will be buying three more
Leopold –
These lights are amazing. I bought them and everything was almost perfect except the packaging was messed up. The lights change in a 360-degree wheel on the app. Any color you want will do. In my YouTube studio, I use 1 light for white daylight and the other 2 lights are colored to illuminate the background. It gives it a very nice effect. My YouTube videos are 100x better now and I feel like I will grow on this investment. I highly recommend buying this light kit. Don’t be cheap on lights.

I have a few now and can’t say enough good things about them. Value for money.

I have a lot of lights from different companies, but these are my first GVMs. I love them so much I bought six and use them every day. Best value for continuous lights and a wide range of uses. The cases they come with are pretty good. The light stand is sturdy. The item description doesn’t say it, but the manual says the CRI is 97+ and the colors in daylight mode are great I believe.

Meredith –
Having lights is great for making videos. I have a problem with one of my lights. I contacted the manufacturer/seller directly and their response has been excellent. They gave me a replacement right away. Thank you GVM!
Hamiltion –
I love the amount of control I have over these lights, being able to change the color from my phone is very convenient, and they’re bright as well. The lights are more learned than they look and have withstood such harsh freezing weather, but take care of them and they will last a while.
Adam –
I set up a studio.These lights make my video quality very good!
Marlon –
Connects to your phone for color control. Love it.

I bought 4 of them. It does a great job. I am very happy.

I sell plants on Etsy and even shoot in a greenhouse where the light isn’t always ideal, especially in winter. This is when I bring my studio lights. The GVM 800-D replaces basic studio lights and boy, what a big upgrade. I like that you can adjust the temperature using the digital readout on the back. This is very important depending on the time of year or the location of the shoot. The dimmer is also great, but it only moves in 5% increments. This might take some time, so I’ll just keep it on the higher end. The only complaint is the carrying case/protective bag. It’s a bit of a pain to put it in, but I rarely use it anyway.
Arno –
The GVM 800D-RGB LED Studio Video Light seems like a good product in this price range. I’m not a video professional, so I may not use the full potential of the light, but it will serve my needs well. The mobile app has bad reviews, so I didn’t bother to use it. I used the controls on the back of the light and it worked fine for my needs.
Isaac –
Lighting can be changed for live scenes. Can be battery powered.
Owen –
I think these lights are worth the price. They are really smart and you get what you pay for. The only annoying thing is having to plug them in. I just bought the batteries so they can be carried around. The lights are great! Definitely recommend them.
Tony –
I’m a novice photographer so trying to add soft lighting when the room is dark. It comes in a soft bag that covers the light, followed by a soft/hard case. It doesn’t have poles for standing, so you’ll need to add those. If you’re making one of the different scenes in a video you want, such as disco, etc., the different modes seem interesting. Looks well made and sturdy. The barn door is plastic and looks flimsy, but anyone who has used this device knows how to handle it properly.
Andrew –
Excellent photography light. And a variety of different shades of light. Recommend to anyone.
