For my Aputure Nova P300c review I really wanted to show the power of this light. Here are a few grabs from the lighting setups in the video. Be sure to give it a watch and let me know what you think! youtube.com/gbM-poRG_VA

Impressive. When you were coloring the background; is that wall white, or a light grey? It really held the colors beautifully.

Nice. Hey @calebpike what color is the wall?

Whoops! Missed this. It’s a middle grey.

That’s what I thought. Thanks. Nice, measured 18% or just something that looked middle-grey-ish at the paint store? I need to paint my new wall this weekend.

I did this with my studio, I brought the X-Rite Passport video to the paint store, asked them for their most neutral greys, then found a shade that looked extremely close to the middle grey chip. Some grey paints have colors so make sure to ask which ones aren't tinted.

Nice. They should be able to mix a totally neutral 18% grey, but that’s a good approach. I love me a nice blue-grey but if you’re gonna light it with colored LEDs or gels then yeah, total neutral would be good. Or, just paying it blue grey and not light it. That works too LOL

I still need to invest in some decent lights to actually light the background now! In the video I shot today it looks pretty much black.
