I agree the light is not bright enough for a lot of applications, I moved the subject closer to the light, finally broke down and just started using a speedlite rather than this overhead light bar. You might try using a lens hood on the camera to eliminate the glare. I can't say that I ever got a glare line on the background, and I used many, many combinations of additional lights to get good results.

I bought two side bulbs to fix this problem. They work great with the studio!

I haven't been very satisfied with my light. Suggest that you might consider a different light.

yeah the glare is bad. I'd check out what Tom said cause I did a quick search and found several listed for specific laptops/brands but not for this one. Hope you find one that works.

I would argue that the glare is a non issue altogether. I really think people who complain about glare are simply LCD/LED fanboys. My unit is in a sun-drenched room with wrap-around ceiling to floor windows and I've never had an issue with glare. I do need to close the blinds in the day, but that's the tradeoff for a superior picture from a display that doesn't double as a neon flashlight. So in sum, screen brightness can be an issue, but for me that's easily resolved with the blinds. Glare has never been an issue for me. I continue to stand by my initial statement that this is the finest screen I've ever viewed when broken in and calibrated properly.

I have not noticed a problem, you might have a problem if there is a light or window behind where you are viewing from causing a reflection. Try closing the drapes or turning off lights behind you.

Try this: go to "settings" (upper-left of the arrows)....use right arrow to get to Brightness, further right arrows to adjust,use OK, then "EXIT".

You should press the clip, and see is the right zone of contact. The light is not very intense but enough to examination. I hope to do help you.

View looks good on mine. I would try a new battery to see if it helps. Using backlight helps as well.

If yours isn't doing like this video at the beginning then return it. It should look like lighting in the sky quick flashes etc...Hope it helps...really is a great light! http://youtu.be/CZXFgRxgj34

The "glare" (or reflection) is pretty minimal unless the room you're viewing it in is super-bright (as in tons of artificial lighting) or extremely sunny (as in a wall of windows with direct sunlight coming through it). Otherwise it's not a big deal. You can deal with it simply enough by adjusting the screen brightness in the display menu, or pull the curtains or shades closed. Considering the quality of the picture and the price it's no big deal to live with.

Yes. Lots of glare on screen. If not going in a dark room look for another tv

Looks like this was answered below. I will say that I don't use this anymore. You can't see the screen because of the glare. It's even worse is you use polarized sunglasses.

Ambient light isn't an issue. However direct light sources, such as a lamp, will cause a reflection on the screen. I generally have a lamp beside the tv when watching.

I go into Menu, Picture, Picture Settings, then you have to adjust the color and tint to get it right where you want it. I have my Contrast and Backlight at 100, Dynalight is on, Brightness at 50, Color at 70, Tint at 0, and sharpness at 14. Hope that helps

What is your issue because I am also having issues with the light distance not extending out far enough on the road making it very difficult to see at night.

I used a piece of tape. If your tape bleeds too much light, put a piece of foil in between. Easy enough

maybe double check the settings menu, I saw a "dynamic contrast" in there somewhere. Don't know if it would help any, or if it's default on or off, I was clicking all over the place! It could also be using more power to light up the screen? Is your video card good for the resolution? Just guesses....
