Canon VL-5 Video Light for HG20 and HG21 Camcorders

The Canon VL-5 is a dedicated video light designed to attach to the HG20 and HG21 camcorder models. It provides supplemental illumination for recording in low-light environments. This accessory draws power directly from the compatible camcorder body. It serves videographers who need a compact, camera-mounted lighting solution without separate batteries.

Sustained output matches camcorder battery capacity

Because the light is powered by the camcorder, its continuous runtime is limited by the camcorder battery charge. Extended recording sessions will drain the camcorder battery faster than shooting without the light. Users planning long shoots should account for the additional power draw. The light has no independent power source for standalone operation.
