The build on this light is all plastic body and the accents take that retro queue. While the retro look is fine and the sticker application they have on it feels solid.

Turning on the light and using it is really easy. Like other portable lights it has a short startup sequence so you don't accidently turn on the light in storage. You basically hit the power button and then twist the intensity button until the number goes from 10 to 0. The control knobs are responsive and you can press in the white balance or intensity button to jump from preset white balance of intensity settings. I don't have a DC jack to test it.

The light comes with a case that holds the light, the reflector, a diffuser, charger cable, and a handle that also works as a light stand mount. The case is considerate and comparable to other lights within this price range.

Great little light!
- Long lasting battery... Up to several hours, depending on power output, of course
- Bowens modifier compatibility
- Comes with reflector and flexible dome
- Linklite app provides full compatibility via bluetooth connection
- Excellent controls on the back of light with easy-to-read LCD screen
- RGB, FX and variable white balance (white light)
- 1/4 threaded for mounting
- Adjustable mount (handle) that will also attach to light stand
- Case, manual, USB type C cable also included

This is a great light that can be mounted on a tripod and used when taking videos/photos. Features white light with adjustable brightness, red light and strobe. Very nice.

The filter is really good, it seems to be a real 10 stop filter (some ND1000 are only 8-9 stops, which makes shutterspeed calculations hard), it is reducing light in both Visible and Infrared light (has been tested on a full spectrum camera used for Infrared Photography), so you will not have a nasty discolouration in the sky as with other ND filters, but you will get a slight blue colour cast, nothing that can not be fixed in post process with the white balance tool, but I highly recommend doing a white balance setting with the filter on to get accurate colours, especially if you are shooting in JPG. I did not see any reduction in detail (see the 100% or 1:1 crop). It easily screwed on my lens and step up rings as well. It has a nice grippy area which I find giving a much better grip than other filters. One thing I'd like to mention is the case it's coming with has a nice locking mechanism and also two carve outs to be able to easily remove the filter from it's case, actually it's one of the best cases I've seen, beating the nice metallic cases from Gobe, which does not close well with larger filters.
If colour cast is a critical issue for you then this filter might disappoint you with it's blue cast, in that case I recommend Haida's NanoPRO ND1000, which I unfortantely lost, but that has virtually no colour cast at all, but nearly triple the price.

Had seen some reviews on YouTube. When unpacked, it looked a bit cheap. But functionally better than I thought. The amazing quality with the 12Mpix camera and lens isn't too bad either. The construction is simple and feels cheap, but in my first picture it doesn't compromise the functionality and quality of the image on the screen. Haven't gotten the videos and photos on the PC yet. It also works with a rechargeable/mobile battery bank so nice and versatile and a mobile setup is possible.
The magnification with a sharp image is so good in terms of resolution in combination with the lighting that, in addition to electronics, it is also suitable for biological and photomedical applications such as viewing and enlarging the skin. That surprised me a bit. The camera and lens can also be removed from the stand and can therefore be carried on the move. The image is more stable under a stand than in the hand, but solutions to this can also be devised with some Macguy pens.
Software is basic but the instructions in the manual are easy to follow.
The wiring was designed to be a bit awkward, but I understand the reason and functionality behind it. I think this could have been partially integrated with fewer cable hassles and vulnerable ports. But from a simplistic cheap architectural side I understand the logic.
I sometimes find the light too white. A warm white color would also have been nice to see true colors. The white light is sometimes overexposed. The light is strong, but it can be adjusted and the microscope ranking is dimmable.
I find all kinds of settings icons on the screen very annoying. It distracts from the picture. I haven't found a settings function to turn this off.
Points for improvement:
Actually pretty good for the price.

1. Mobile crafting with fewer cords
2. Warm light option for true-to-life images.
3. More megapixels. The more details are visible. The lens magnification is good but can optionally be a notch higher as a mountable accessory.
4. Software option to hide settings and clock and date from the screen.
5. Slightly more robust wheel. so I can make better micro adjustments with the focus/focus point of the lens. Things are going a little rough now. I believe this is due to the coarser plastic grooves. Perhaps a metal rail is a better option.
6. visible buttons on the screen. The function is plastic, so black on black, and therefore no contrast. If it was colored white, it was more visible. More contrast.

The filter quality seems to be perfect. I'm used to that from K&F Concept. And you get a really nice blue streak effect. The problem, however, is that you get that with every single light source in your image, so you don't really have the ability to be selective. You have to compose your recording really carefully. The filter rotates smoothly, allowing you to change the direction of the stripes, but you'll still see them in any light source. I think in the end Photoshop is probably the better option to give you more control over such effects. Still, it's a worthwhile tool to have in your toolbox, especially given the cheap price for an FX filter. It uses the same high quality optical glass as the other newer filters. The precision machining of the filter threads and ring is impressive and gives the feel of a much more expensive filter. So I can't fault any of the properties of the filter. It's just for the way I shoot, it probably won't be as useful as for some other types of photography.

Very good 77mm blue streak filter. The blue steaks can be rotated 360 degrees, which means you can point the light spots in any direction you want to create some very interesting effects. The images I've added are an example and were taken in the same spot I just rotated the filter to show how it works. So far I haven't had any issues with removing the lens filter that you can get with a rotating filter. I'll admit I didn't quite understand how this would work and tried using it during the day on a cloudy day and obviously didn't get anything, but I can confirm that this filter does the pictures I took has not affected, so you can put it on your lens and as long as there are no lights, everything is fine. For this to work you will need a light source, street lights, car headlights, wall lights, etc. BUT note that you cannot choose the light source. So if you have multiple lights you will get the flare effect on all the lights. I tried this on an 85mm lens and with the lens filter on I was still able to attach and detach the lens hood as normal. The filter doesn't have an overhang on the lens, but that probably depends on the lens you're using. Overall I am very happy with the Blue Streak Filter and would recommend it to anyone wanting this effect.

I love the idea of this, but it didn't really work for us. We followed the instructions and made sure the light was on, we had the microscope on a level white surface, and we couldn't see anything on the slides. Even after adjusting the magnification.

Then we tried it on a few actual hard surfaces in the house, like skin, fabric, and our countertop. I didn't see anything other than the white light, with the exception of the granite counter top. We could see the fine details of that.

It's possible that we just didn't adjust the knobs properly. So keep in mind if you have a child who gets frustrated easily, this might not be the best item for them. It takes patience to set it up just right with the slides and to adjust the knobs to clearly see what you're trying to see.
