KitGuru says: Overall, we’re impressed with the features and functions of the Key Light Air, it’s well designed, a perfect size and comes with everything you’d need to step up your game. Our biggest concern is still the price but if you can afford one and want the ease of use then we do recommend the Elgato Key Light Air.
