Article Comment – Watch: The Twisted Story of How Color Came to Hollywood

The introduction and use of Technicolor's three strip process is a fascinating part of cinema history. Sadly, this film does not do it justice. The monotonous voice-over coupled with incoherent facts - $30,000 compared to what? - and the repeated use of clips make for a dull viewing experience. There's a clip from a Laurel & Hardy film that looks post-colourised and not Technicolor (shoot me if I'm wrong!). And one last thing, the phrase "coloured film" suggests films about people of colour; wouldn't "colour film" be more appropriate?

Article Comment – Relio Is a High-Powered Color Accurate LED Light Fixture that Fits in Your Pocket

I backed this as a Kickstarter project last year and, yes, it certainly packs a punch for such a small source. Relio's choice of CT is bizarre. You are obliged to gel with Relio's truly appalling filter system that's retained by a rubber band! Watch video to see how useless this is: https://vimeo.com/150355751. The Relio comes with two lenses - wide and narrow - and changing requires 4 screws to be undone with a tiny Allen key! What is needed is a clip on filter holder with barn doors. Basically, Relio have come to market with a 0.9 beta version; wait a year for the market version to emerge. Also, try contacting Relio after sales and you receive a trained monkey reply.
I also use a Led Lenser 7.2 (with clamp and mini-magic arm) which although not as powerful has an excellent lens which acts as a fresnel. It's cheaper, has internal batteries, focuses and costs less than the Relio.
