Bowens S-mount is compatible with a variety of light modifiers and accessories, such as the included reflector for producing a broad, even, and neutral light quality. Speaking of light modifiers, I might have found the perfect pairing for the SL-60. It’s called the Lantern Softbox and it’s made by Aputure. This softbox has some directionality to it, but it also has a lot of spill around the edges from the globe shape that helps to spread light around a wider area. It’s a fantastic solution if you only have one light, but you want to light a relatively large part of a room with a nice soft look. Here’s a sample photo taken beneath the Lantern using the Godox SL-60. Note how much light has wrapped around onto my hand behind the camera when using this awesome Lantern modifier.

The 60W COB LED offers a high output along with color-accurate rendering and dimming control from 10-100%.The Godox SL-60 completely surpassed my expectations. In the past, I have used rectangular LED panels, but this time I needed a light that would work with traditional light modifiers such as softboxes and reflectors. With the SL-60 being a COB light, it has a much more traditional design that will be familiar to photographers. The standard Bowens mount on the front gives you access to an incredible range of 3rd party modifiers. LED lights can be a great way to get started with off-camera lighting in photography. What you see is what you get, so it’s easy to understand how the light changes as you move it around and use different modifiers. What’s important to remember is that the brightness of the LED will have an effect on shutter speed that’s available to you. A continuous 60w LED like the SL-60 is nowhere near as bright as a regular hot shoe flash, let alone a larger monolight.

It’s aluminum construction body is robust and feels well made. Unlike cheaper lights I was surprised that the Fan produces almost no noise. For those serious about videos for YouTube will love the low sound pollution this light box produces as the fans can get loud and negatively impact your videos sound. There will always be fans on COB lights. In most cases, I don’t think people will have a problem with the noise of this one unless you had a lot of these lights all in a confined space that was prone to echo. To put the noise into context, in my office where I hung the light, the fan noise is completely drowned out by the noise of my hard drives. So it’s not bad, but it’s something to be aware of. Don’t put a camera too close to the light if it has a mic on it, and don’t accidentally point a more directional mic in the direction of the light. This means that compared to flash shooting, you will have to use a much slower shutter speed and that can present problems with subject movement. A relatively weak LED such as the SL-60 would be fine for shooting static subjects such as food or other still life projects, but even then you are going to need to use a tripod if you need to stop down the lens to get a reasonable depth of field.

I would count this as a good performance, largely delivered by what is a very nice reflector. Comparing it to photographic reflectors that I have in my office from much bigger flash brands, it looked identical an almost every way. That said, I doubt most people will use it with a reflector. One of the big benefits of a COB light is that the form factor allows you to tap into the vast array of studio light modifiers that are on the market. I would definitely recommend that you pair this light with some sort of softbox or at the very least a shoot-through umbrella. All in all the Godox SL-60W is a very capable lighting kit that will brighten up your room. The higher quality parts ensures that your light should be serving you for many years without fail. This fit and finish is very good and more premium to other lights I have used. The stand is very well made. No cheap plastic parts. This was one of the bigger and noticeable improvements over cheaper models. This unit is designed to last much longer than the competition as well as offer multiple different positions of mounting your light to the stand with its multi position head.

I had originally planned for the light to be a simple, cheap stop-gap in my studio until I could assign the budget for a larger light from a bigger brand. Honestly, I don’t think I need to do that anymore, I’m perfectly happy with the Godox light and it more than meets my needs as a key light for some Youtube videos.Godox SL-60W COB LED Continuous Light. Studio Lighting Equipment Godox SL-60W COB LED Continuous Light watts is on the low end of the power spectrum for a COB light, but for indoor video shooting where the light is being positioned just off-camera, it’s plenty of power. Stills photographers who require much faster shutter speeds than filmmakers will want to consider a higher power version of the light such as the SL-150. That is unless you are only photographing still life subjects while using a tripod and longer shutter speeds. The SL-60 isn’t all that big, but I was surprised how heavy it was. It doesn’t feel like a cheap hollow plastic box nearly as much as I expected.
