Thanks for your reply Stuart. I just want you to know that my reply was reflective of nearly 4 decades in photo/video/av and having manufacturers deal with real world critiques of their products by referring us to their pr departments ("thank you for your interest in our products") instead of saying "ok, got it, we need to fix this now." I agree that a little fan noise won't affect me when I've got someone hooked up with a lav or some other external mic. setup, but in a run and gun situation with a camera-mounted shotgun or hyper-cardioid this could be a problem. I'm going to see if I can get my hands on one of these to try it out because it really does look like the first LED light that could replace a Lowel Pro or Frezzi Mini-Fill or similar.
