Most ring lights advertise an approximate brightness in lumens, with 800 lumens comparable to a 60W incandescent lightbulb, and 1500 lumens a 100W bulb.
While some ring lights feature a single fluorescent tube, you’ll most commonly find them employing an arrangement of LED bulbs. If you plan on matching your ring light to any ambient lighting you’ll need to make sure it offers some form of colour temperature control. Larger ring lights will, in general, provide a more flattering look as the larger light source is better able to surround you or your subject. While these mounting points shouldn’t be used for heavy DSLRs they can be pretty handy for phones and smaller cameras.This makes finding spares while on the move a cinch, though you may want to opt for rechargeables to save some cash. Ring lights cover a wide range of creative ground and so you’ll find a lot of options to choose from. Look for a 5500K or daylight setting if you plan on working mainly with natural light, or a 3200K or tungsten setting for working indoors. The Diyife Selfie Ring Light charges over micro-USB and offers up to an hour of continuous use off of a single charge. Alternatively, if you use an external microphone like the Rode Videomic Pro, the light can simply slide right over the top of it.
Mid-sized ring lights and larger often have the ability to mount a phone or camera within the ring, either via a tripod thread or smartphone mount.com Limited is an Introducer Appointed Representative of CarMoney Limited who are authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority, FRN 674094.
