The Godox ES45 Desktop LED Key Light has hit a new low price of $119, $20 off its regular $139, at major retailers including Amazon and B&H Photo. This marks the first time the light has dropped below its usual price this year, according to The Verge. It offers adjustable brightness and color temperature, making it a strong competitor for streamers and remote workers.
The key light provides a brightness level comparable to the $180 Elgato Key Light but at a significantly lower cost. Users can position it to shine directly on their face for crisp video or bounce it off a wall for soft bias lighting. The color temperature ranges from a warm 2,800K to a daylight-like cooler setting.
A standout feature is the included wireless 2.4GHz remote, which eliminates the need for desktop or mobile apps to adjust settings. The remote recharges automatically when magnetically reconnected to the light. The ES45 also comes with a tool-free desk clamp for easy attachment.
This deal is available at Amazon, B&H Photo, and Dodd Camera, though availability may vary. As streaming and home office setups continue to drive demand for quality lighting, such discounts make professional-grade options more accessible. Buyers seeking simplicity and value may find the ES45 particularly appealing.
Some users note that the Elgato Key Light offers tighter software integration for those already in its ecosystem. However, for standalone performance and price, the Godox ES45 provides a compelling alternative.
