    Hey haven't posted in this thread for a while. I see it went off topic there for a while but glad it is back on topic. Still using my Mule for food photography and every time I bring it out in front of a group of photographers at a restaurant people want to use it too. Here's a pic of someone...

    I think you will notice that with any LED light you use but I could be wrong. I have noticed the lines on my lcd when I am composing the photo but they have never shown up in any of my pictures that I've noticed.

    Thought I would share another photo I took recently. I lit the drink from the back with my McGizmo Mule.

    I've heard a few others have received shipping notifications that ordered from Olympus. How long ago did you pre-order it? Wonder if I should cancel my Amazon order. They have no estimated shipping dates yet. Oh did you know you get a free accessory with your OM-D order? You can choose...

    I usually get emails when people reply to this thread but I haven't been so sorry for being so late in responding to some questions. I've always been an Olympus fan. Pretty much all my restaurant photography that I do now is with an Olympus Pen (micro four thirds) camera, currently the E-PM1...

    Took the Mule out to a nice restaurant with some fellow foodies. They were impressed with the light and used it to take pics with their iphones. Here's some of my pics from the evening. I however didn't use my iphone, these were taken with an Olympus E-PM1.

    Got some new black velvet material to use as a background for studio shots. Had to take a a test pic of the new Mule.

    I put my McGizmo on a Gorillapod to show off the tripod clip. It worked pretty well. I also took a pic to show how wide the light is as I don't think I've seen any photos of that and was surprised by how wide it is. The photo below was only 3" from the wall and produce about an 11" in diameter...

    Haha don't tempt me. You can put a Haiku head on this right? Maybe sometime in the future I will get another head for it but I think I'm good for the time being. :) I've already had a couple people email me and reply to my photo on Flickr asking me where I got it. So don't be too surprised...

    Got my light last night. Very impressive. I was pleasantly surprised at how wide the beam is if you could even call it a beam. Could practically use it to light up a whole room in the dark. I will take some more pics of it but here's a quick one I took last night to show the size. My bf...

    Thanks again everyone for your recommendations. The mule definitely got the most votes and is what I've decided to get. I sent an email to Don requesting one this morning and I just sent another email a bit ago to request the tripod clip. Thanks for that tip fyrstormer! It will come in handy...

    run4jc, I saw your photos comparing the Sundrop and Mule. It looks like the Mule would be even better than the Sundrop for my application. Thanks for posting that, it was helpful.

    Dang you guys are really tempting me. I might just have to bite the bullet and get one of the titanium mules that is being offered. I'm sure it's well worth the price and they seem to really hold their value. Merry Christmas to me? :)

    That's fine I'm not looking for an extremely bright light and don't really plan on using it for anything outdoors. It would mainly be used in restaurants that have low light and I will be pretty close to the food. Last week I went to something called a Foodspotting Eatup with a bunch of...

    Thanks for sharing. I like the black finish. The clip is pretty nice too. Don no doubt does good work.
