 Hey what's up guys welcome to our trending review so today I've got this gadget it's called the Yameran ALM9 pocket light it's essentially a powerful LED pocket-sized light for your DSLR cameras I just wanted to see if it's actually worth the money I've got it for £45 on Amazon so let me go ahead and take a look and see if it makes a massive difference by illuminating various different parts of your reviews shots objects yourself and so on so let's get straight into it. Just to start off give you some details it's actually card-sized so I've got a gym card here that I use if I just put that over it it's actually exactly the same size and it's very lightweight it doesn't weigh that much it's actually got nine LED lights in there which actually makes it quite bright on the left hand side you have the power button to turn it on and then you have the brightness level buttons that you can adjust it with as well so there's nine levels of adjustment to the very brightest until the minimal amount of brightness. The battery life on it is about one and a half hours on full brightness and you get up to 13 hours of minimal brightness LED on there and that's obviously consecutive use so over time you know that you can use that for longer periods so it comes with a cold shoe as well that you can mount on top of your DSLR cameras which I'm using for mine as well so essentially I use it for close-up shots, pan movements of various objects when I'm reviewing videos I get the LED light on there and I'll get close shots and make sure the lighting is awesome on it as well so also it comes with this nice little carry case nice little pouch that you can put onto your backpacks inside it comes with a couple of things so you have your USB charging cable that you can charge that with right in the other pocket you have a cleaning cloth which is pretty good and then you also also comes with a couple of filters so you get a gold filter which gives you more of a sepia effect and then you also have a blue filter which gives you more of a cold nighttime effect as well if that's what you prefer so you can place that on top of this inside the slot there now let me show you the brightness level on this as well so I'm just going to turn it on you can see that's actually its maximum level so I can reduce it up to nine levels down to minimal brightness so if I'm just holding the reduce brightness button it will just go down itself I can even press it once to go up one level or I just hold it down and it will just go up smoothly to the highest level now of course you want to see actually how it fairs with other studio lighting so what I'm doing at the moment is I'm using a ring studio light specifically this one here so I'm going to turn this off and turn this on just to see the comparison of actually how bright that one is compared to this so let me go ahead and do that now so this is how dark it is obviously you can't see anything I'm going to be turning the amaran led light on now right as you can see this is on its full brightness it's not as good as the studio light because the studio light's purpose is to brighten up a entire room so this one focuses on specific objects but it's actually made me a little bit brighter even though the background is still a little bit darker but what I'm going to do now is do some close-up shots with just the amaran led light on some objects on this table and see how it looks with the studio light and obviously with the pocket light here so let's go ahead and look at that now right so that's everything I wanted to cover with this pocket light if you guys have any questions please do let me know I'll leave a link in the description below where you can buy it on amazon it costs me about 45 pounds it's not the cheapest but also for the amount of power you get in this pocket light and the convenience of taking it easily anywhere you like I actually think it's good value for money so do check it out link is in the description I hope you subscribe I've got some other videos coming up of useful equipment that you can use for your DSLR camera when you're taking photography or you're doing some filming I think you'll find them very useful so keep an eye out for those again like the video hope you subscribe and I'll see you guys at the next one take it
