## Description

Works with DCR-HC42, DCR-HC90, DCR-PC55, DVD102/202/402 Three-watt video designed exclusively for compatible Handycam camcorders Provides a bright light for shooting in dark places or where there is a strong backlight The auto function feature turns the light on automatically in dimly lit situations

Review: Brighter than expected, great help in low light - Pros: - Brighter than expected from small light - Price - Really helps in low light, even for a cam that performs well in low light - No batteries - draws from cam Cons: - Drains cam battery - you may need a bigger battery for cam This light does what I was hoping for, fill in dark areas in low light, particularly in peoples faces. This makes for much more pleasant videos of my family and friends. The downside for home videos is that your subject will often not like the harsh brightness shining at them. It really is bright when pointed at you. I have started being selective when I really need the light because it is so conspicuous and often I want to video from the sideline to capture "natural" expressions without being a neusance. The value for this light is pretty high for me. The price paid for the benifit to my videos is very good.
Review: nice little light - This is a nice little light. It is smaller than it looks in the pics but it packs a punch. You're not gonna light up a whole room or a dark forest but works will on people a few feet away. It is what it is...not the biggest or baddest, but for simple jobs it will more than do the trick.

This is a nice little light. It is smaller than it looks in the pics but it packs a punch. You're not gonna light up a whole room or a dark forest but works will on people a few feet away. It is what it is...not the biggest or baddest, but for simple jobs it will more than do the trick.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I'ts incredible small.. and great!
*by O***O on July 27, 2008*

Whe the HVL-HL1 arrived, I couldn't believe the size. I had to make shure that it really was the light a bought. I will post a customer image. I think it's important the people can see the real size, just in case. I love the size, and the light is great. I use it with a Sony HDR-CX7 (a very small memory stick HD camcorder), and it really improves the low light recordings. I'm very pleased with the results, the size and the price. It's a solid five stars!. You just have to deal with the battery of your camcorder. I didn't have this problem because I overkilled the issue months ago when I bought by mistake the NP-NH100. Thank god I never returned this monster of power!. With the 3 watt HVL-HL1, the NP-NH100 will give me all the power I need.
