Thanks for the honest pictures IMO the TK40 takes it much tighter hot spot by far :twothumbs

The Legion has a much deeper reflector than the Fenix.
At short distance, the central spots seem to be about the same, but at long distance the Legion is much more of a thrower as the overall beam remains much tighter, concentrating more light on the target.

On this photo you can see that the spill of the Fenix already covers entirely that of the Legion at about 1m.
Left Fenix TK40, right Legion 2:



Here two more shots at about 15m distance:

Legion 2



I tried my best, but it's very difficult to show it with my primitive photo equipment

These might be the same photos - but the bottom one of the two has ether been exposed for longer - or has been lightened up a bit in software - so thats what makes it look slightly different/brighter.
Automatic cameras can give a dodgy view sometimes - even spill from the beam can change the exposure making a light with both spill and throw seem darker - you should use spot metering so it will read the intensity of the spot of each pic - or better still if you can over ride the auto settings - set camera onto daylight and use the same aperture and exposure each time (ie: iso 400 F4 5-8 second exposure) and use a tripod for both camera and light - then you will have a base line for all future photos and there will be no discrepancies from shot to shot - and even if you sell a light you will have the same settings for future reference.
sorry for rambling :duh2:

Dude - check the links. They're the same physical file! How can there be a difference??? Unless perhaps your monitor's backlighting is not uniform?

you are right sorry! - I just opened the files and they are the same - it was the angle of viewing of my screen - what a donkey :ironic::tinfoil:

 

[wbp]

Hardly! Bet you're using an LCD monitor? Odds are it's brighter at the bottom than at the top... All except the vary expensive ones are like that...

Hi. Minilux, thank you for your pics!

I found that the exposure setting of 2 pics seems different.
The sky is brighter in the beamshot of Tk40.

I think your camera has a "M mode", right?
Use the M mode, you can use the same aperture and shutter setting in different pics.

Hi. What's "get served"? I haven't seen it before and can not find it in my dictionary.
