These lights are LED and have incredible brightness.   If used with an L & M housing, they can easily be switched between low, medium, and high.   They have incredible brightness. In fact, if you are taking video up close (within 5 or 6 feet) it is usually a good idea to switch the lights to medium or low intensity.   They are LED, so they emit a 5000 Kelvin WHITE light, which is perfect for video.  They also have an 80 degrees beam so two of them can easily illuminate an area 160 degrees wide! - nearly a half circle.  The batteries are very long life Nickle Metal Hydride batteries.   In fact, they last so long, you can use the lights as dive lights on night dives - and, in doing so, you'll illuminate the entire area around you!

The lights have only been used a few times and are good as new (LED's don't burn out!). The batteries are also in like-new condition.

I am selling the two lights, battery pods, batteries, and L & M Quick charger - for only $1000.   ($500 per light).    I paid $1800 EACH for them about 1 year ago - so this is a heck of a deal!

Thanks.

I have been poring over posts in anticipation of a 2nd trip to Palau in a few weeks.   I have been stressing and need some advise.
My camera setup is:   Nikon D300,  Sea&Sea housing (I have most all the ports, extension rings, etc.)  Inon strobes.
Lenses that I use underwater:  WIDE ANGLE: Tokina 10-17 (LOVE THIS LENSE!),   Nikkor 12-24.  I have a #2 dioptor, and used it a few times until I got the 10-17.  MACRO:  Nikon 105mm (no VR, older lense).
I also have the setup for a Nikon 18-70mm lense.  The ONLY recent time I've used this lense is in Palau.  But, I am not happy with the quality, the distortion around the edges.  Had to crop many of the pictures extensively.

Obsessive side of me: In an attempt to not miss a shot --  I was thinking about taking the 18-70mm, or obtaining a simlar (but better) lense that is more of a mid-range zoom. In Palau, being tied off to the reef on sites such as Blue Corner, you do not get close to the sharks. Alex Mustard mentions the Nikon  17-35mm quite a bit. I've also seen posts on a Sigma 18-50mm lense.  

Practical side of me:   I have almost convinced myself that I should not even attempt medium zoom pictures, because of the distance to subject, clutter in water, quality,etc.  Most of the "zoom" shots, I end up trashing anyway.  Should I just let the other photographers, videographers get the blue corner shots? Focus on shots of things I CAN get close to and bypass those I cannot?

Thanks!!
