Godox SL60II & SL60IIBi Review: Did They Reclaim the Budget Light Throne?

Did you ever have the original SL60W? Does this look like a worthy upgrade to you?

I'm a graphic designer specializing in book covers and editorial illustrations. I make things and need to shoot them for my work. A photographer buddy is recommending I go with continuous lighting and a silver interior Bowens mount 3x4' softbox. I'm overwhelmed by the rabbit hole. I can't believe it's this hard to give a company my money. I want a well-built Softbox that will last. My setups are small usually no larger than shooting something I've made on poster paper. What is the best continuous light for my needs? What wattage will cover my bases? Can you recommend anything or point me anywhere? I shoot everything on a Canon 5D classic (12.8MP ftw) with a 50mm lens. At some point I'm expecting this camera to die but the shutter is so sweet I hope that's later rather than sooner.

What is the channel and group button function in the body of sl60ii bi? Thank you

That's great, but how good it is when compared to SL100Bi ?

As a still life photographer (food, beverage and product) already in the godox/bowens mount eco system but now branching out to add stop motion and video my biggest reservation coming from flash is the output. Would this light be ok as a key light considering I'm mostly shooting in smaller spaces?

Thank you for the detailed review. Snagged a SL-60ll D on amazon it was on sale for $104!

Hey man great vid. What softboxes are compatible with the sl60ii that you can recommend?

do you recommend the SL60ii bi or the ML60 bi ? I can't see any difference between the two.for product and food photogrphy

Hello!
I love your detailed review on Godox lights:)
Godox recently released the Sl150w Mark iii can you please let me know what are the difference between mark ii & mark iii?

Hey I have a question, can I use it as harsh fake sunlight? I mean you see how brown eyes become honey brown when sunlight hits it. I need that type of artificial light. Does this light work like that?

I do makeup closeup videos, I like natural harsh sun but where I live the weather is pretty unpredictable. So I was considering to buy the godoxsl60llbi. Should I go for it or maybe look for something else?

Compare it to the Colborn CL60

Can you power it with a V Mount battery?

Would this be fine for a beginner to get started with on product photography?

Wanna see you walk up on an Escalade with 28” wheels and blacked out windows lol

I want to use these lights in a permanent setup simply connected to a power strip that I will turn on and off. If power is cut & restored, will these lights retain their temperature and intensity settings or will they reset back to default each time?

Hi ! Amazing video, I just bought GVM 150W RGB Video Light Kit, 2700K~7500K Bi-Color I am recording beauty videos, do you recommend godox better ?

Great review! Thanks. It was just the information I needed to decide.

Great review mate (VGC)

How would you compare it to the 100W Zhiyun?

Nice to see you posting more regularly again. Also, congrats on making it to 100K subs! That is an amazing accomplishment!

Which will be a better option for product videography when it comes to a second light? this one, a tube light (like the godox tl30), a small rgb light (g2 pocket ) or an led panel ( neewer pro660 rgb ).. with so many options, it gets more confusing to choose for beginners like me on a tight budget

Do you think you’ll be reviewing the new VL ii series?

Hi you say it's brighter. But do you mean at mid range 4k or in both 3.2k and 5.6k the same?
