I'm looking invest in some better lighting and interested to hear experiences with video lights that have a burst mode. Currently I'm using the TG-5's internal flash and 2 generic Chinese video lights that are several years old and not all that bright. I guess they are better than nothing but it's time to upgrade. My primarily goal is to keep down the size and weight of my gear; I'm always space restricted and wont have room to take both video lights and strobes. If it exists, a 2-in-1 would be ideal.
From the specs and sales info online, it looks like a few models have a burst that can be triggered from the fiber optic port. For those that have used them, is the burst suitable enough for macro? Would you recommend them over a normal (constant) video light?
Kraken Weefine 3000 light ring
iDive Symbiosis SS-3 - Looks promising but still pre-order
Kraken 2500 Macro
Other recommendations??
