I am posting some sample pics of the new Sony camera light, at a (dark) reception with my FX 7.
The light is better than I've read before, as it has a "focusing" lens which acts like a spot and reaches further, as well as a diffuser and normal setting.
The 1st and third pics show you the bridal table through the focusing lens, which I was approx 12 feet away from, and the speeches what is always a dark corner at the left end of the bridal table, about 15 feet from.
When I zoomed in on them (pic 2) I had adequate light.
pic 4 is using the normal setting during the bridal waltz, showing a more even coverage, and you can see the coverage as you progress down the wall from left to right.
(They're dancing under ultra violet lights, not my white balance!)
It's still dark, but with a bit of brightening in post, it's no worse than what you could see on the night.
Cheers Vaughan
