Great product

Would this be a good on camera light for the Canon T3i?

Replied by LA Color Online

This would work great for Canon T3i. Size-wise, it fits very well with DSLR. It is also brighter than many on-camera LED lights out there in the market.

Looks like they've gone back to their old non-standard reversed-polarity power-input plug. Sorry, but that's a serious dealbreaker for any professional applications requiring interchangeable power supplies. Why on earth would they do something like this?

Replied by LA Color Online

This product just like many other compact LED lights out there which are mainly for battery powered. Unlike traditional camera lights that consumes a lot power (thus requiring power supply), Comer 900 can be powered for over 8 hours using the NP-F970 battery. It is really not necessary to use any power supply.

I have 3 cm1800 and I love them !!! I like the upgrades that they made ( on/off switch, dimmer and metal shoe ). The non-standard reversed-polarity power-input plug is still the same ( only complain ). I use a nrg belt to power it, because I don't like to put more weight to the camera !!! I will wait for the new redisign 1800. Thank you !!!

Thank you for your comment. We constantly provide feedback to Comer to enhance the products. This will be the next thing we will request Comer to address.

Hi I have CM-900 (first model) and I´m very happy with it.
Is this model smaller than the first model? less weight? Thanks

Replied by LA Color Online

Andres, this is the same Comer 900 light except it comes with metal shoe, and a full dimmer (instead of 2 levels of brightness)

Sri, we have been selling Comer 900 for years. It is not exactly new. The new version is the enhancement added to the light including metal shoe and a full dimmer. You can see more reviews in each of the product page.

I want one that can use Panasonic batteries like VBG260 or VBG6 or older similar batteries for DVX. Until then I will hold off buying this light despite that I like it a lot, but no Panasonic battery adapter is a deal breaker for me. Maybe someone can point to a Panasonic-to-Sony adapter plate that can be used with this light?

Replied by LA Color Online

Panasonic, Canon, Sony etc, they all releases many different type of batteries. The CGA series is the old and more popular Panasonic models.

There're also many camera lights out there can only use AA batteries or some proprietary batteries. The Comer light accepts also the widely popular L-series batteries. The NP-F570 battery we have can power this light for 2 hours, yet it is only $18.

I ordered I bought Comer CM900 to compliment my Canon XF100 camcorder after trying Litepanels MicroPro LED which I was not satisfied with.

Come CM900 utilizes the canon batteries that I use with Canon XF100 which is a big plus. But what I really like in this small light is the ability to generate very powerful light in such a small package. The build quality is very good as well.

The guys from LA Color were very supportive and responsive. Thanks!

Vladimir, glad you like the Comer 900 light.
