LED or Strobes - Which One Sucks the Most?

These week’s topic is very important: If you’re stranded on a desert island, which lighting kit are you bringing along?I’ve spent my life lugging around heavy strobes (studio flashes), and I dream of replacing the whole mess with LEDs so I can see what the light is doing, not to mention not popping flashes in my subject’s face. But for reasons you’ll hear, Bill half convinces me I have to keep both kits.You know what I quit.Gear we name-check:Dynalite (R.I.P.)Speedotron (remarkably, still in production)Lowel Tota-Light (a classic I will never surrender no matter how much I don’t use it)Profoto (B1, B10, A10, Acute, Pro-11)Elinchrom (THREE)GodoxBroncolor (Move)Nanlite (PavoTube)Aputure (1200d)Amaran (the CUTEST little sources)Litepanel Astras (hate)Lume CubeKino FloPhotek SunbusterBut for the desert island, I would suggest one of those expensive balloon canopy things, because then you could float on it to escape. Find us:Yell at us or with us on Substack: https://continuousagitation.substack.comOur big dumb faces on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ContinuousAgitationWrite to us: continuousagitation@gmail.comRead Bill's newsletter, Art + Math: artandmath.substack.comFollow Jay: @jayfram  /  jayfram.comFollow Bill: @sawalich  /  sawalich.comRate and review Continuous Agitation on Apple Podcasts — it actually helps.
