Dual Purpose Hybrid
By Hungry Camerman
I've only had my Lite Panels Micro Pro Hybrid for about a month and the few times I've used it, so far, have impressed me.In general I have a love hate relationship with top lights because of weight issues but the Micro Pro Hybrid really impressed me with how lite it is. I use this device for both still and video photography and so far I plan on making it a permanent addition to both my camera packages.For my DSLR (Nikon 300s) the flash sync feature is awesome. The few tests shoots I've done so far spell a lot of potential for certain looks I want to experiment with. For my HDV camera (Sony v1u) it's a great dim-able eye light for small scenes and a great soft light for run and gun style shooting. This baby has some kick to it, which is awesome.On the down side, yes even with five stars, it feels a little fragile. I'm afraid that one good whack or drop will damage and / or destroy it. I'm also not too keen on forcing the batteries in and out of the battery compartment. It feels as though if enough pressure or wear is applied, the battery housing itself will crack. Adding six AA batteries does weigh it down a little; making it front and/or top heavy which I hate, FYI. I bought the Sony battery adapter plate as an option for when I'm shooting video only to find it's not really recommended for the hybrid. So far so good.Overall, it's still a good buy for the price.
