Half the time, the client just wants me to bring a light kit and doesn’t care what it is. However, there are those times when clients request a Kino Flo DIVA light and those 2-camera shoots where the other cameraman is bringing Diva’s and I need to rent to match their lighting.
I heard from a couple of people however that the flourescents will get replaced by LED’s and there won’t be a need for flos in the future.
I am thinking about getting a DIVA light on eBay, but I also came across this, which I think might be a better option. Question, would a client care if it’s NOT an actual DIVA light? I could put a Kino Flo sticker on there:D. Also, would this work if the other light was an actual Kino Flo? It boasts a 95+ CRI I like the fact that it can run off a battery too.
