Great light, essential for parties and receptions
Many of the other reviews already covered the basics. I will add that I also use a Stofen om-ez diffuser with this light in order to even out the lighting of the subjects (and to make the light a little dimmer). I bought a few 5 watt bulbs for this light that I may try in the future.

Great Light
I don't know if it is because I have a newer model light or I just don't do cartwheels with my camera but the shoe mount seems great for me and my team. We are using 2 lights on or SONY HVR-V1U and we love them. They use the same batteries as the

The Sony HVL-20DW2 video light
I recently purchased a Sony #HVL-20DW2 video light. My first time using the light, with a Sony NP-F570 Li-ion battery, only the top bulb will burn. If I attach a higher capacity battery (NP-F730H or NP-F970) both upper and lower bulbs will burn. All three batteries are 7.2V. ? Also, the light...

Using the NP-F970 Battery with light
Light works well. It's compact and lightweight. I very seldom use 20-watts. If the first light burns out, I flick the switch and use bulb 2. I am associated with 2 other video companies and we have six of these lights between us.

Works well, lightweight, but structurally weak
I've gone through two of these. This unit has dual lights (two 10W) and is smart enough to switch to 10W from 20 if the battery starts to weaken. It has a built-in diffuser, but may need further diffusing as it tends to be slightly focused. Great light, but structurally too weak, where it...

Very bright
Ive used this light for night time shooting and its too bright for interviewing. If you use this for public interaction make sure you have a diffuser on the light or else your subjects will run from you.
