Hello - I am thinking of buying this to use for a photobooth at a wedding. The room will be relatively dim, will this be enough?

Yes. we used two of them and our spa to apply makeup. It provides plenty of light.

I think you need at least 2 lights and 3 would be better. A fill light for the front, Back light behind the subjects and a light to highlight. One light may work in conjunction with a flash but I haven't tried that. Whatever you use, test it in light like you will encounter at the shoot.

Not just one light u would at least need 2 but really 3 might be better. I have one on each side one down the middle with more if I need them. If u have a flash u might can get by with the one but if not u will have shadows on faces without light just behind u. Learned from doing just that. Got two for Christmas one year so that was plenty for a small room.

It's pretty bright, but 20 feet would be *really* pushing it, I think. Of course, it depends on what kind of camera you're using, and how good it is at high ISO. From that far back, though, the light will also be pretty concentrated, perhaps not all that much different than a flash, in terms of shadows and such. Bottom line, I don't think this would do what you need it to.

The way I'm using it (for portraits, the room is not completely dark, and I use flashes), they are ok. I have noticed a very, very minor brightness when the flash was directed at it (i.e. I was trying to make it reflective to see how it reacts), but it was barely noticeable since I was looking for it.

yes, This is a very good product. You will get powerful LIGHT with LOW Electric use and less heat! because of the low power bulbs. It lights the room like a studio.

Depends on the size of your shop and how bright you need it to be. I would say generally, yes but it may be a little dim.

Yes, that's exactly what I use it for. You need to be able to position the lights at least about 3-4 feet from your face, otherwise they will overexpose. As long as you have that room (and I managed it in a very small area - they only take up about 2-3 square feet each), it'll work!

It appears pretty dim. I would choose the white fan. It gives good lighting.

It isn't bad in low light, just use a wide angle lens to use as much light in the area as possible and you shouldn't have any problems.

Depends on how bright it is in the room but regardless unless it's dark the quality will be horrible and theses things have very poor resolution to start with so I'd say probably not gonna work if you want one that will work in light get a nec I did and it's great

It would definately work for a small or even large setting. I filled a 6' x 6' screen with it today in bright lighting and it was just slightly dim. I am using a windows based laptop but the instructions also provide set up for IOS based devices like the MacBook. I can use my iPad with the HDMI cable and the lightening to HDMI Apple adapter and it works fine.

it really depends on what you need done. If it is the only source of light it will not be bright enough in that size room for reading. In the evening.

It's not as great as I thought it would be. I use it in a gym to show movies at a group home for children on a 12' white screen. It would be okay with the lights on but not nearly as bright as I expected. In a smaller room it would be fine.

Probably not - light would be dim. You could however buy some of the decorative glow in the dark light-wires. they are about 2$ and come with a 3xAA battary case that outputs 12V. an idea maybe?

If one person is using light should be OK. I set mine on box to get more coverage with light tilted so I get better area coverage.It's very adjustable so can adjust to your needs.

The bulb it ships with is super dim, and I believe it's 75 watts. I've put a 100w in, but it's still not enough light to brighten a room. The light can be used for ambience only unless you're installing it in a very small room. My room is 12 by 20' for your reference.

doubtful, but depends on what type of lighting you are expecting. I have two of these fans in a room about 24' x 19' and at it brightest it does the job for general purposes.

Hi, I use it for the makeup shoots . But you need to know that it's not enought if you stand as far as a foot from you client. Better use some really good lighting
