ZHIYUN FIVERAY M40 [Official] Video Light 40W Portable Camera Light, 14000 Lux, CRI/TLCI 96+ 2700-6200K, 320g LED Panel DSLR Photography Lighting Pocket Fill Light for YouTube TikTok Livestream

The build quality of these units is very impressive. They feel heavy and solid, not fragile like some of the other cheaper options. They aren’t too heavy to carry around but I wouldn’t be concerned about them being broken if I just dropped them in my bag. Having physical controls is also really useful — there’s no messing around with menu screens, just one dial for brightness and one for colour temperature. The light they give off is nice and even, well dispersed, and impressively powerful — I used one light to work from in a power cut one night recently and got a good half hour of light on full brightness before the battery ran out (I don’t think it was fully charged, either). So these are really great for videography on the go and have become important parts of my live-streaming kit. It’s worth noting they aren’t full colour, they just do various shades of white, and don’t have the snazzy lighting effects you can find on other devices. But for the price and for the specific task of key or fill lighting, I don’t think you’ll find anything better.

Great little versatile light which served well on an overseas trip where everything had to fit in one bag. It won't last long on the internal battery on full power (very bright) but as I was using it for interviews at night I didn't go there - if you do be prepared for a noticeable fan noise. But as a small key light/fill light on location for a head and shoulder type thing it's brilliant. I cut some scrim and attached with velcro to make a travel friendly softbox-ish light modifier which you need as it's pretty harsh even with the inbuilt modifer. You can use & charge off a battery pack too. Recommended.

Tried this already on the streets of London and I couldn’t believe how bright this light can be. Definitely not needed at full power so the battery lasts actually very long! I was also lucky enough to get its silicon cover sent for free and the whole set is now complete and perfect! As I plan to shoot some portraits on low light this will definitely help me even out the lighting throughout their faces. A BIG MASSIVE thank you to Mina who assisted me through some delivery issues. She is the best customer service I had it in a while! Thank you again!

I was after a small light with a bit of punch to keep in my kit bag. This certainly kicks out a lot of light for its size. The downsides are that it gets hot quickly and the fan kicks in within a few minutes - which, at full speed is really loud - it couldn't be used near microphones if recording important audio. Also the internal battery will last less than 30 mins on full power, shame there isn't a battery shoe on the back to use external NP-L type batts. The case has big vents (understandably) but this also means it has zero water protection, and the only mounting points are on the moveable arm at one end - there are no 1/4" holes along the body, limiting mounting options and giving it a weird centre-of-gravity. For all its impressive technical ability, the design needs a bit more thought.

Incredible light from Zhiyun, very small and compact but don’t let it’s size fool you, it really packs a punch. Super easy to use with great mounting options. A game changer for people on the go or wanting to light places where there is limited space.

Using for low light photography, as a hand held extra light spurce. The quality is very good, extremely bright! I haven't managed to test its battery fully, this will get updated if I find any negatives, none as yet!

The light itself is good, but in the picture, you can see the attachment for the camera, which I didn't get. Now I have to purchase it separately.

Amazing little light. Very versatile. Will need an external battery or connection to charger for extended use. Approx 30 minutes at full power.

Only few uses but seems very good. Colour control is staggered and abrupt changes on the control wheel but not a problem for my use.

メイン照明とは別に補助照明を持ち歩くなら最適解、かさばらず尚且つ光量も○ ZHIYUN様々ですね

Es un foco led de 40w con temperatura de color variable es decir tiene luz fria y luz calida, cuenta con dos ruedas una para la intensidad y otra para la temperatura de color y un soporte para poder poner el foco tanto en vertical como en horizontal. Es ideal para iluminar cualquier espacio pequeño o para luz frontal. Calidad precio es un producto invatible ademas de ser compacto. Hay un accesorio clave que es un difusor de silicona que suaviza la luz y lo hace el complemento ideal. Muy recomendable para creadores de contenido, fotografos y videografos.

This was recommended to me by a friend who created content and this is such a powerful light! I love how adjustable it is, the battery life is pretty decent, but if you want longer battery life, you have to get a bigger light lol. it’s portable and charge is in a reasonable amount of time. This is absolutely worth it.

Questa torcia LED Zhiyun Fiveray M40 è una di quelle luci che ti fanno dire: “ok, ora capisco cosa vuol dire illuminazione fatta bene”. Compatta, potentissima e pensata chiaramente per chi fa video, foto o content creation seriamente, anche in mobilità. Me ne sono totalmente innamorato. I 40W reali si sentono tutti: la luce è forte davvero, uniforme e pulita, perfetta sia come key light ravvicinata sia come fill o luce d’accento. Io la utilizzo anche per visite in locali bui o per esplorazioni. Il range di temperatura colore permette di adattarla a qualsiasi ambiente senza dominanti strane, e la resa cromatica è ottima, con colori naturali e pelle ben bilanciata. Uno dei veri punti forti è il raffreddamento attivo: nonostante la potenza, la M40 resta gestibile e affidabile anche durante utilizzi prolungati. Le manopole fisiche per intensità e temperatura sono comodissime, precise e infinitamente più pratiche dei menu digitali. Costruzione solidissima, feeling premium e dimensioni compatte: entra nello zaino senza problemi ma illumina come una luce molto più grande. Perfetta per desk setup, riprese YouTube, streaming, interviste, esplorazioni, visite immobiliari e shooting on-the-go. In breve: una luce professionale in formato portatile, con una potenza e una qualità che sorprendono ogni volta che la accendi, il design poi è favoloso e ha anche attacco 1/4”. ⸻ ✅ Pro • Luce potente e uniforme (40W reali) 💡 • Ottima resa cromatica e colori naturali 🎨 • Controlli fisici rapidi e precisi 🎛️ • Compatta ma estremamente performante 🎒 ❌ Contro • nessuno
