Default LED flashlight (torch light) as cheap video light

I got a 67 LED headlamp at http://www.dealextreme.com/ for $9.34. VERY
BRIGHT!

Works good as a video light and synchronizes directly with your brain for
special lighting effects.


Does the beam cover the entire area when the camera is at wide angle, or
does it cover only a small spot?


With my older JVC camcorder it covers the entire wide angle area but the
central part is much brighter. A little bit of zoom evens it out. Its not
the perfect video light but, the price is right.
