Extend the range of your Nightshot system by shooting with this Sony infrared light. It enables strong definition over a great distance to deliver terrific video footage.
When shooting with the NightShot function, this light enables strong definition over a great distance.
Recommended shooting range (3-20m).Can be powered by either InfoLITHIUM M series battery or two AA (R6) size alkarine batteries. Includes an accessory shoe adaptor (VCT-S30L).
Great spread, low distanceMay 16, 2010 M. Derossett(California) It doesn't go very far but it has a good spread out pattern. It has 2 brightness levels but I always use the brightest. I like that it can work off AA batteries or a battery pack. It works for what I need it for.
Does the job but could be better...April 1, 2010 Muhammad Riaz(United Arab Emirates) I bought this light for my sony hdr xr500 to be short it work great it has around 25ft range it has an option for two AA batteries which the sima unfortunately doesnt it has a intensity control...the problem with this light is the light itself the light isnt wide enough it is like the cheap flash lights which makes those ring sort of things its not a consistent illumination so the video quality suffers a bit....otherwise the features are really good i wish sony will upgrade this IR with a wider and a more bright IR light with the same features...
awesome for ghost hunter'sMarch 29, 2010 Scott W. Power(Port Orchard, WA) I have used many different IR lights in the past. This one allows you to use standard AA Batteries. Which is good because you can have unlimited IR light usage while on an investigation. I use it for my full spectrum camera and my hand held camcorder. Unlike most IR lights, these you can adjust the brightness of the light. So in low light condition you can add just a little light so not to over exagerate your night vision. In low light turn it up all the way and it works great.
Great productMarch 19, 2010 Charles M. Zukowski(Colorado Springs, Colorado) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
As a paranormal/UFO investigator I'm constantly shooting at night. I use older Sony Night Shots which work better than the new ones. You can find them at pawn shops and buy them for around $75. Look for pre 2000 models. The problem is their built in IR lights. Some cameras use two LEDs some use one. I purchased this item specifically for my March 13th 2010 ghost investigation at the Hand Hotel in Fairplay Colorado. It worked really well. I gave it 5 stars because it really put out the light and uses standard batteries or a Sony battery. I prefer to stay with the standard batteries because I've noticed with rechargeable batteries, their life span decreases faster during paranormal investigations. (go figure) It's quicker to go back to base camp and replace a couple of AA's and not worry about re-charging. I did notice a couple of things you'll have to deal with. First, the IR light is not a scattered light and more like a light from a flash light. There is an adjustment for the intensity, but it's still a direct beam. Second, the light pivots on this little barrel mount which during operation will cause your light to turn. If you stay aware of these two items, then you'll enjoy this product.

Works GreatMarch 14, 2010 Susan A. Smith 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
It does what it says and lets you take video/pictures in complete darkness up to 100'. The only thing I do not like about it is it is a little bulky with the long bar coming out from the side if you are walking around carrying it. Plus you have to be careful not to let it slip out of the shoe on the bar, but if it does it seems to withstand drops on concrete very well. :)
