The Godox ML100Bi is gaining attention as a lightweight, portable, and affordable lighting fixture. Following Zhiyun’s release of a similar light, many companies have developed comparable solutions.
The ML100Bi weighs 487 grams (1.07 pounds) and has physical dimensions of 122mm x 110mm x 46mm. The power draw for this fixture is 120W. Unlike the Bowens or Min Bowens mount, the ML100Bi uses the proprietary Godox mount. However, Godox offers a variety of lighting modifiers compatible with this fixture.
