Bescor LED-70 Dimmable 70W Video and DSLR Light - Bundle - with Bescor SA-1 Universal Swivel Shoe Mount Adaptor, with SONY AIS Shoe Mount Included Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is essentially the same review I posted for just the light without the swivel shoe mount attachment, but it still applies here.
Got this to use for still photography as an alternative to flash lighting and it works. I like the dimmer control & had no flickering when turned down to the lowest setting. Light seems most useful at roughly half to full power; lower than half power good only for close work. Also like the filters; the design looks like it'd be pretty easy to make my own for different effects. I'd estimate the lighting field of coverage, indoors across an average size room, equivalent to about a 60mm-75mm lens on a 35mm camera.
I'm very disappointed with the cheapo Bescor quality: The shoe mount on the light, and the swivel mount, look and feel like they'd break with the slightest mishandling. Re: the light alone: The battery compartment is poorly marked for the polarity (I painted polarity indicators on the back of the unit); internally, the battery compartment isn't closed-off from the circuit board; the overall quality of the plastics and assembly finish is cheesy (e.g., some of the edges/seams where the front & rear body halves meet look like they were trimmed with a pocket knife). I didn't expect it to be made as well as a higher priced/pro light but I didn't expect it to be so cheaply made, either.
I wouldn't buy it again; the quality isn't there. It's grossly overpriced for what it is.

VIZIO E320VP 32-Inch LED LCD HDTV, Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Wow, LED LCD provides a fantastic picture. This set replaced a 26" Vizio that I thought had a great picture. The LED picture is much better and brighter. One thing that is not readily apparent is the power supply.
Most televisions have a transformer on the inside that converts 115v or 220v to 12v, this TV uses an external 12v converter/power supply and the 12 v plugs into the back of the set. This might make it easier to install in an RV or other camping/water option. The power supply is about the same size as a Laptop Power Supply.
Sound is a bit of a problem. It is somewhere between as good to superior to many other televisions, but it is NOT real surround and does not have a sub woofer, so...
Set up: Opened the box, laud TV on bed, took down old TV, swapped out the mount, and had the new set operating within 20 min. Setup was also easy and fast. Weight does not seem that big a deal at first, but this set's weight is slightly LESS than the 26" we replaced, another plus for mobile mounting.
If you are wall mounting, be careful to follow the steps to remove the stand neck. Instructions say, "Remove the four (4) screws holding the stand neck, and then remove the neck and base." Well, only two screws are readily visible. The step BEFORE this reads, "Remove the cover on the stand neck," which exposes the other two screws. Removing this cover can be tricky so look first and then proceed with caution.
We use this TV as our second set and it is in the master bedroom. I am so impressed that I may replace the main TV before too much longer with the big brother of this set.
Overall this TV is well worth the price I paid and Amazon had the best price of any place I checked. I usually spend an inordinate time pricing things prior to purchase and Amazon was well below everyone this time.
