Two of our picks from Best Godox Video Lights for Streaming and Vlogging: ML40Bi, ML40R, FL15Bi, LC500R and the EazyFlow Softboxes, compared side by side on the specs and trade-offs that actually matter.
Short answer
Between the Godox LC500R and the Godox EazyFlow Octa 60 Softbox, we recommend the Godox LC500R ($154 when we checked it on 2026-09-14) as the better godox video light for most people. A background or a hand-held reveal on camera. The Godox EazyFlow Octa 60 Softbox ($59 when we checked it on 2026-09-14) still makes sense if round catchlights and a wider wrap from a single light.

Our take on each
Godox EazyFlow Octa 60 Softbox
Best for: Round catchlights and a wider wrap from a single light.
The Godox EazyFlow Octa 60 is the octagonal version: 60 cm across, a grid in the box to control spill, and the same quick-fold frame. The octagon gives round catchlights in the eyes and a wider wrap than the Rect 40, so it is the better single-light softbox for a desk.
Same mount note: Bowens, so studio COBs and Aputure yes, ML40 only with the adapter. Owners rate it 5.0 across its first 3 reviews.
Godox LC500R
Best for: A background or a hand-held reveal on camera.
The Godox LC500R is an RGB tube light with a handle, which makes it two things: a background light that lives behind a desk and paints the wall, and a light you hold up on camera for a reveal or a portrait. The barn doors and the diffuser in the box shape the spread.
It runs from its battery or from USB-C, so it works on a desk and in a bag. It is not a key light: a tube spreads light too evenly to shape a face.
Owners rate it 4.6 across about 150 reviews, the most in this group.
