About this deal

BOWENS S-TYPE MOUNT: The VL150 comes with a Bowens S-Type mount which makes it compatible with a large range of soft boxes and modifiers. This is a great addition to your kit if you are already using Bowens modifiers.

Interestingly, he did say Nanlite fresnel worked better with the Godox than it did with Nanlite's own LED light. Godox VL150 will suit you best if you are looking to shoot outdoor and carry around equipment frequently and it is much lighter than SL150W II. The later one is specifically for studios and does not come with support for an external battery, that’s the reason it’s priced lower than SL150W II. Again, as with the previously mentioned lighting series, the name indicates the power output of each lighting unit. The UL-60 has a maximum power output of 60W and the UL-150 has a much larger power output of 150W. This is further shown in the difference in brightness between each of the units as when measured at 1m, the UL-150 is much brighter at 58,000 LUX compared to the 31,000 LUX offered by the UL-60 light. The Godox UL-60 does offer a selection of features not available with the UL-150 unit, such as a selection of different lighting effects to choose between to add mood and drama to your cinematography. It also features Bluetooth connectivity to allow it to be controlled by the Godox smartphone app and supports DMX512 protocol to control a single or multiple units via a DMX control console. You are right. Godox needs their own version. But, as a consumer, I have no problem mixing mfr's. equipment. Brand X lights with brand Y modifiers. Aputure LS C120D II boasts a persistent 5500K color temperature whereas the Godox VL150 offers a range of 5600K ± 200K temperature. In addition, the cooler Aputure LS C120D II also features a higher TLCI (≥97) than the VL150 (≈95). However, both models offer a CRI rating of 96.The VLII Series all use the ever-popular Bowens S-Type accessory mount, which makes it compatible with a wide range of modifiers such as Softboxes, Fresnel Lenses, spotlight attachments, snoots diffuser-balls plus much more. The LED chips used are the latest in High-Intensity Integrated LED technology, making these lighting units suitable for a selection of different Videography fields such as professional broadcast use, cinematography, and video interviews. Each of the lights offers a High CRI (Colour-Rendering Index) rating of ≥96 and a TLCI (Television Lighting Consistency Index) of ≥95 to make sure the colours in your subject are captured professionally and clearly. The main difference between these three lights is that the SL 150 II and SL200 II are both Daylight Balanced lighting units and the SL 150 II Bi is a Bi-Colour lighting unit, offering an adjustable Colour Temperature between Daylight Balanced and Tungsten lighting. The power output of the lighting units is also different, with both the SL 150 II and SL 150 II Bi offering a maximum power of 150W and the SL 200 II being the most powerful at 200W power output. In terms of the overall brightness of these lighting units, when measured at 1m, the SL 150 II Bi offers the lowest brightness of 30,000 LUX due to having to share the power output across its adjustable colour temperature. The SL 150 II is the next brightest at 58,000 LUX and the SL 200 II is the brightest of the three SL series lights at 74,000 LUX. Finally, the dimensions and weight of each unit is different across the SL series. The SL 200 II is the largest with dimensions of 36.7cm x 20cm x 16cm and a weight of 3.33KG. Whilst the SL 150 II and SL 150 II Bi offer the same dimensions of 34cm x 20cm x 16cm, the SL 150 II Bi is slightly heavier at 3.07kg compared to 2.95KG of the SL 150 II. The VL150II can output a lot of power, whilst maintaining a lightweight and compact body. They feature a separate control panel, which not only makes the light itself smaller and lighter. It also enables you to easily control the light without a remote, even when the light is mounted high up. When away from the unit itself, there is a dedicated remote control for each unit as well as Bluetooth compatibility to work alongside the Godox smartphone app.

Both models are rated for 150W, and for the same power supply (AC100~240V 50/60Hz) so that they can be used all around without the risk of circuit breakdown. If you are a traveler you don’t need to worry about finding the right power supply if you going in and out of a country. In addition, both Godox VL150 & SL150W II features the universal Bowens accessory mount that open for numerous modifiers and other accessories. You can add a softbox or a fresnel, or any other light modifier to control your light. The VL150II has been updated, giving you access to 2.4GHz wireless control, enabling it to be controlled remotely using the Godox RC-A6 Wireless remote (Available separately). The VLII series also features Bluetooth connectivity, enabling you to control all your lights via the Godox Light Smartphone App, which is available for free on the iOS App Store, and the Google Play Store on Android. Both Godox VL150 and SL150W II are daylight corrected to 5600K(± 200K). In terms of color accuracy, both of them carry a high CRI rating of 95. However, a slight difference arises when it comes to TLCI measurement. Godox SL150W II boasts a slightly higher TLCI value of 97 vs 95 that VL150 supports. Both Godox VL150 and SL150W II supports a yoke with a handle that allows full 360-degree rotation of the light. In addition, both models offer an option to turn off the fan if you need total silence while shooting, but with reduced brightness. Note that the fan noise is already minimal in both models. Specifications | Godox VL150 vs SL150W II The VLII series features an ultra-quiet cooling fan, rated at less than 30 dB. This makes them suitable for use in sound-sensitive filming situations such as filming interviews, Can be Powered AnywhereIn this post, we’ll be comparing two famous LEDs in the market: Aputure LS C120D II vs Godox VL150. Aputure LS C120D II is a 180W COB LED model from the Aputure Light Storm lineup and an upgrade to the first generation C120D LED. Godox VL150, on the other hand, is a 150W COB LED from the Godox VL series that comes at a much affordable price than the LS C120D II. Let’s see how they both compare and if one offers a better value for money than the other. Price Comparison | Aputure LS C120D II vs Godox VL150 LED Model Prefer natural light but planning for more controlled continuous LED lighting. Already decided to use large 7-foot PLM with diffuser cover. Having trouble deciding on light source, having narrowed down to 150W LED without the need for portability (no VL-150) or silent operation for video (UL-150). Godox VL150’s V-Mount battery plate in the control panel lets you use a battery to power the light if you have to shoot outdoor or places where you might be worried about a dedicated power supply. However, keep in mind that V-Mount batteries are expensive and you might want to give in some extra money to use that feature. h Godox really need to produce fresnels (and a projection attachment) which are optimised for their lights. This is the big gap between them and Aputure and NanLite. Similar to the VL Series, the SL series currently has three different lighting units to choose between. These are the Godox SL 150 II LED Light, Godox SL150 II Bi LED Light and Godox SL200 II LED Light.

We here at PiXAPRO are pleased to be able to offer a range of different Godox LED lighting to our customers, but there are a few different types of lighting available to choose between. The most common options are the VL Series, SL Series and UL Series of LED Lighting. Here is a breakdown comparing each light currently available in each series. Godox VL150 is lighter than the Aputure LS C120D II. VL150 weighs 1.79kg (3.95 lb) whereas Aputure LS C120D II weighs 2.2kg (4.85 lb). Both models also feature a cooling fan with very less or no noise. This is very helpful while recording videos as a silent fan will not deteriorate the audio quality. Specifications | Aputure LS C120D II vs Godox VL150 Feature However they have no good solutions for the ML lights. They have a nice set of Godox mount softboxes though they could do with a Light Dome equivalent and possibly a Lantern. They need a Godox mount Fresnel if they want the light to compete properly with the Forza 60. Arguably they should have something to compete with the Forza 60 projection attachment but the S30/S60 has that function very well covered.The Godox VLII Series can deliver a brightness of up to 76,000 Lux at 1m with the standard reflector (6,100 lux bare bulb). This makes the Godox VLII series powerful workhorses for cinematography and video production. To deal with the added power output and brightness, the weight of the units also differs. The VL300 is the heaviest of the three lights at 2.64KG, with the VL200 offering a weight of 2.23KG and finally the VL150 offering the lowest weight of 1.79KG. However, even with the added weight of the lights, they all do still offer the same dimensions. Dimming functionality in LEDs come in extremely handy. This saves a lot of time as it eliminates the need to change the lighting to control the brightness that suits a scene. Aputure LS C120D II features non-linear dimming from 100% to 1% in <10% fine adjustments. The Godox VL150 provides better control over the lighting by providing a linear control. It is dimmable down to 0% from full brightness.

Amateur photographer shooting Sony A7III, building home studio with single lighting setup for upcoming newborn shoot with siblings. The VL150II includes a controller box, with an LCD screen, and an intuitive control dial interface. The Controller box enables you to control the brightness of the light steplessly, between 100%, and down to 0% brightness. For less than the cost of the UL 150 you could buy an SL200 II which is very quiet at full power and even quieter when you reduce the power. Review here .Yes, though Godox really need to produce fresnels (and a projection attachment) which are optimised for their lights. This is the big gap between them and Aputure and NanLite. I would also like to make some interviews, documentaries- etc. I saw a comparison and Godox VL150 sounds almost the same as SL150W II (correct me if I'm wrong). The control box is the main difference between the Godox VL150 and SL150W II. The VL150 comes with a compact control box that includes the power unit as well. The buttons in the control panel box let you adjust the settings of your light, whether it be dimming, turning the fan off, or turning off the light. Coupled with the remote, it lets you control your light from where you are without going to the control box. All three lighting units can be powered either using the included mains power cable or using a V-Mount battery (Sold Separately) with the built-in V-Mount battery plates for use on both studio and location shoots. The entire VL series lighting units come with Bowens S-Type mount as standard to allow these to be used with a selection of different light modifiers to offer ample light control.
