   Today I received my Photino Light and Tenergy 05 rubbers from TT-Japan. This is the last Butterfly order from this website. I glued Tenergy 05 on both forehand and backhand of my new Photino Light, and tried it this afternoon.  
I used Photino and TB ZLF before. 3 of them are made of Zylon Fiber, and here are some comparison among 3 of them:

Speed: Photino Light > Photino > TB ZLF
Control: Photino > Photino Light > TB ZLF
Dwell: Photino > Photino Light > TB ZLF
Spin: Photino Light > Photino > TB ZLF
Recoil: TB ZLF > Photino Light > Photino 
Elasticity: Photino Light > Photino > TB ZLF

In general, I think Photino Light is a very balanced blade compare to other two ZLF blade. Its largest advantage is light but is still powerful. It is fast, but it never lose any control. 

This blade is very suitable for player who play long distance or mid distance from the table. In here, I'm not meaning you will lose control if you get close to table. The control of Photino Light is still good even you get close to table, but, you may lose a good chance to see its energetic power if you get close to the table!
