I dunno if it's a spammer or not, but in the event that it isn't: Lighting is very important for photography (and videography), especially indoors. Aside from producing nicer images, it overall helps you become a better photographer as you experiment and put more thought into your shots. Even as a hobbyist it's a good idea to learn and use lighting. I've never used this light specifically, but unless you plan to experiment with RGB and need a ton of output when doing so, you'll probably save some money getting a non-RGB light. If you need to add a little color to your shots you can get a cheaper RGB light to throw on the background or add a little stylish color to the subject. If you're strictly a hobbyist, you can start out with cheap clamp lights and LED bulbs, using things like shower curtains for diffusion. I still do this when I'm in smaller areas where I don't have a ton of room. There are also very affordable soft box sets that come with soft boxes, stands, and bulbs. They are very simple, but serve their purpose. -
Now any iPhone (pratically from 12 and up) can shoot open gate RAW video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3TkrKTOOGLE However after trying extensively RAW or Android and Log on iPhone I am not keen to shoot video on smartphones. Too many restrictions and the whole idea to have a cinema camera that you can just pool from your pocket at any time and start shooting doesn't work in practice. Still several accessories like ND filters, cage + hangle or gimbal are needed. I would rather take a small camera with small lens like Sony ZV-E1 + Sony Zeiss 35mm f2.8 with me than a bunch of smartphone accessories. -

Sounds like random people making stuff up; the ZR has a fast read time in video mode (for a relatively low-cost mirrorless camera); it doesn't make any sense to make a video-first camera based on a sensor that is more than 10 years old and has a very slow read time. I couldn't find any reports of it on NR. -

I, for one, would like to welcome Zhiyun's marketing team and/or their spam bot to this forum. As to that specific light, if it doesn't come in an ugly leather case and have Cam Mackey's signature all over the light and all of its accessories, is it even worth considering?
