Godox SL-60W 60W 5600¡À300K LED Video Light with Bowens Mount Continous Light - White Version

Product Information

There will always be fans on COB lights. In most cases, I don’t think people will have a problem with the noise of this one unless you had a lot of these lights all in a confined space that was prone to echo. To put the noise into context, in my office where I hung the light, the fan noise is completely drowned out by the noise of my hard drives. So it’s not bad, but it’s something to be aware of. Don’t put a camera too close to the light if it has a mic on it, and don’t accidentally point a more directional mic in the direction of the light. Color Temperature: 5600K CRI 93, TLCI 95, R9 80 Rear LCD and Onboard Adjustment Dial Bowens S-Mount Heatsink and The Godox SL-60 completely surpassed my expectations. In the past, I have used rectangular LED panels, but this time I needed a light that would work with traditional light modifiers such as softboxes and reflectors. With the SL-60 being a COB light, it has a much more traditional design that will be familiar to photographers. The standard Bowens mount on the front gives you access to an incredible range of 3rd party modifiers.

The SL-60W comes included with the flash body, chargers, UK and EU power cables and a High Intensity Reflector. Bowens S-mount is compatible with a variety of light modifiers and accessories, such as the included reflector for producing a broad, even, and neutral light quality.Integrated heatsink, built-in fan, and temperature control function help keep the light running cool for safe and consistent use. The temperature of the fixture itself can also be monitored, in Fahrenheit or Celsius, on the rear LCD. Our servers are getting hit pretty hard right now.

NOT Included RC-A5 remote control offers wireless dimming control as well as the ability to work with six lighting groups and 16 channels. This 433 MHz remote runs on three separate AAA batteries and has a wireless range of approximately 65.6′. Of course, I’m testing the SL-60 light here, the cheapest of the Godox COB range. But the light is also available in three additional variations with more power: SL-100, SL-150 and SL-200. The design of the more powerful lights is nearly identical, but each one gets a little longer to accommodate a larger power supply and more cooling. If you get to the end of this review and like the look of the product, but wish it was more powerful, you have those options.

The Godox SL-60W is a white 60W COB LED continuous light. The SL-60W is a daylight-balanced video light with an intuitive design. The SL-60W is a Bowens Fit light and so is compatible with all Bowens fit modifiers. With an intuitive overheating prevention system, the SL-60W is protected against overheating whilst in use. Regarding downsides, the fan doesn’t matter to me, but I have one issue with it: That is the tiliting mechanism. I think, it has very coarse detents and the clamp isn’t strong enough to hold the angle in between if it is used with a modifier. That often bothered me, especially with directional modifiers. No idea, how other LED lights do in that regards. Reply Godox has a fanless COB LED the UL-150 and will be releasing a UL-60 to match the output of the SL60 but with no fan. It won’t be as affordable as the SL-60 unfortunately. Reply This means that compared to flash shooting, you will have to use a much slower shutter speed and that can present problems with subject movement. A relatively weak LED such as the SL-60 would be fine for shooting static subjects such as food or other still life projects, but even then you are going to need to use a tripod if you need to stop down the lens to get a reasonable depth of field. I had originally planned for the light to be a simple, cheap stop-gap in my studio until I could assign the budget for a larger light from a bigger brand. Honestly, I don’t think I need to do that anymore, I’m perfectly happy with the Godox light and it more than meets my needs as a key light for some Youtube videos.

The Godox SL-60 is a budget-friendly 60-watt COB LED that will be mainly used by YouTubers and beginner filmmakers to create studio content. Under some circumstances that we will discuss later in the review, it could also be used by stills photographers shooting relatively static subjects or still life in a controlled studio environment.

watts is on the low end of the power spectrum for a COB light, but for indoor video shooting where the light is being positioned just off-camera, it’s plenty of power. Stills photographers who require much faster shutter speeds than filmmakers will want to consider a higher power version of the light such as the SL-150. That is unless you are only photographing still life subjects while using a tripod and longer shutter speeds. LED lights can be a great way to get started with off-camera lighting in photography. What you see is what you get, so it’s easy to understand how the light changes as you move it around and use different modifiers. What’s important to remember is that the brightness of the LED will have an effect on shutter speed that’s available to you. A continuous 60w LED like the SL-60 is nowhere near as bright as a regular hot shoe flash, let alone a larger monolight.

I would count this as a good performance, largely delivered by what is a very nice reflector. Comparing it to photographic reflectors that I have in my office from much bigger flash brands, it looked identical an almost every way. That said, I doubt most people will use it with a reflector. One of the big benefits of a COB light is that the form factor allows you to tap into the vast array of studio light modifiers that are on the market. I would definitely recommend that you pair this light with some sort of softbox or at the very least a shoot-through umbrella. OVERHEATING PREVENTION SYSTEM: With an integrated heatsink, built-in – fan, and temperature control function, the SL-60W is fully protected against overheating and inconsistencies. The temperature can be monitored in Fahrenheit or Celsius. COB LED LIGHT: The SL-60W is the 60W continuous lighting solution from Godox. Providing a high-quality light with colour-accurate rendering and dimming control, the SL-60W is the perfect light for photographers and videographers. Speaking of light modifiers, I might have found the perfect pairing for the SL-60. It’s called the Lantern Softbox and it’s made by Aputure. This softbox has some directionality to it, but it also has a lot of spill around the edges from the globe shape that helps to spread light around a wider area. It’s a fantastic solution if you only have one light, but you want to light a relatively large part of a room with a nice soft look. Here’s a sample photo taken beneath the Lantern using the Godox SL-60. Note how much light has wrapped around onto my hand behind the camera when using this awesome Lantern modifier.
