Elgato Key Light Mini unboxing and tests - tiny but mighty?
53This is a video on Elgato's Key Light Mini - a tiny little portable light with some interesing highlights and uses. I've been testing it out in various ways, using for living streaming as a face light, using it mounted on a camera as a key light, using it hand held and tripod mounted. Here's my experiences and showing what it's like vs the Key Light Air and other things.
