Q: 1. How much light does this light put out? To say the Guide No. is 15'/4.7m at ISO 100 does not answer the question. Guide Numbers are useful for flash, because the flash duration is far less than the shutter speed required for flash sync, and therefore does not effect the exposure (For the record, the relevant calculation for manual flash exposure is Aperture = GN divided by distance). For a continuous light source, exposure time is a relevant factor, and I would need to know the brightness of the light to calculate the exposure time and aperture as well as distance and ISO to get the correct exposure.Lux or EV at a certain distance would be appropriate, or you could give me a Guide Number that includes a certain exposure time, for example 1/100 sec.Typically a ring light is used for macro photography at a very short distance. At a very short distance light falloff due to the inverse square law is small. On the other hand Depth of Field is extremely small at large magnifications, requiring a very small aperture of F22 or smaller. So plenty of light is needed.So I come back to my question - how much light does this device produce? I am interested, but need to know before I decide to buy.

A: Hello David - I have had this product for a couple of years now. I have found it to be useful on many occasions, including adding the light to the camera for great fill flash outdoors on folks. The LEDS are split into all on, left or right banks of LEDS. Or, from a macro ring-flash POV the unit is functional and adds sufficient light when using it for macro work. THE MAIN THING TO CONSIDER is that this is a VERY PLASTIC unit. Including the vast number of lens-rings. It is doubtful that the unit would survive a fall to the ground - AND - you only have one shot at the threads on the plastic rings... For the money however, I found a safe place for the light to live in a gadget bag, so I keep it warm, safe, and dry. All in all, If you plan to make this a go-to flash, my opinion is keep looking and find a unit is built to handle heavy use. Otherwise, this is a little gem to have when you realize that you need it. Hope that helps! Kevin

Q: 2. The flash works when using the viewfinder but not in liveview with my Canon T5i. How can I get it to flash in liveview?

A: Unfortunately, it is not possible to use the flash function while the camera is in live view mode.

Q: 3. Does this product support a specific brand, such as Canon, or any camera with a hot shoe? Thanks.

A: Being that this is a continuous light, and not a flash/strobe TTL is of no issue here. TTL only pertains to flashes and strobes. Using this device would be essentially the same as working under any other natural light source such as the sun or a lamp etc. You can set your camera to program modes or manual modes to expose with whichever you prefer and it will render great results. The only cameras the device would not be able mount the base to are the Sony Alpha and older Minolta cameras with the special Sony/Minolta shoe.

Q: 4. I have a Sony A58 - does this need a hot shoe adapter?

A: This attaches to your camera using a standard hot shoe. But if your camera does not have a hot shoe this unit also comes with its own little stand too be used on a flat surface like a nearby table. You can also just handhold the unit or velcro it to your tripod if necessary.

Q: 7. Will this work on the Nikon D610 with a 28-300mm lens (77mm)?

Q: 8. The spec says the ring has the flash mode triggered from camera. Would it work with Sony A99 via hot shoe?

A: Yes, the Bolt VM-110 is compatible with the Sony A99.

Q: 9. will this fit a sigma 10-20mm f4-5.6 wide angle lens

A: The Bolt VM-110 will fit a Sigma 10-20mm f/4-5.6 lens with the use of the 77mm adapter ring that is included with the light.

Q: 10. I have an Olympus micro 4/3 and an Oly 60mm macro lens, with a diameter of 46mm. I also have a 46 to 58mm adapter. Will it work with that configuration? Thank you very much for your response (Gabriel, from Argentina)

A: Yes, it will work but a 46-49mm step ring would be better, more streamlined without having a large step ring on the front element.
