Install Flash Player I have been purchasing lighting for my gf lately because she does YouTube videos, and so she has been on me about some ring lights. After much research, I decided to buy this one because of the affordable price tag, and the size. She already has a lighting set of soft boxes, and another smaller ring light I recently bought from Zomei as well, which she really likes, but figured that she needed a larger one to complete the set. She uses it mostly for her videos, but I do photography, and have used it a few times and was pretty impressed at the light it gives off. It does a nice job as a light source that faces your subject, whether for videos or photography. Of course the way you choose to use it to get your desired effect, is up to you, but the standard use for these types of lights, is for the camera to be placed in the center of the light, as it illuminates the subject. She liked the light so much, that she did a video review of it for her channel, as she often does when she gets something new that she appreciates. I attached the review for those who might be interested in the ring light for the type of application that she uses it for, which I assume is most of you looking at this listing. All in all, it was well worth the money, is dimmable, comes with an orange light cover to change the color temperature, if that is something you want to do, has a carrying case, stand and a power cable. As with most of these types of products, it has a plastic construction, and seems fairly durable, though I wouldnt test that by drop kicking it or anything foolish like that. Like I said, I tend to go with Zomei products, because they have a lower price point, but in my experience that doesnt mean they are of lesser quality to the competition.

I wasnt expecting much for the price, but this really isnt bad at all. It feels a little flimsy so time will tell, but it comes with everything you need (other than the smartphone!) and it all goes in a nice case, too. Except the light stand… Im not sure that actually fits in the case. That said the light stand is the cheapest part of it and I think Ill use a different one. The light itself is quite bright, and at max brightness indoors its almost too bright, so thats awesome. It comes with a CTO (orange) ring for matching tungsten light, which I dont know where youd really need something that temp, but its there if you need it (or want to pretend youre shooting at sunset!). The light isnt pure in color (it doesnt have a high CRI) but thats no surprise for a cheap LED. If you are using a smartphone, itll adjust the WB just fine. If youre using a proper camera, auto WB will work but you can do a custom WB and totally negate the color shift. Again conclusion is its a good value. You can spend a lot more and get little extra, so if youre in the market for a simple ring light LED for selfie or youtube videos, give it a shot!

If you are looking for a ring light, this is it. It comes with everything you need, and it has a removable center mount post for a cell phone. My only real complaint about this kit is the light stand. It has a thread on the top of the post (see photo) so the light cannot sit flush on the stand. This makes the light a little wobbly, and also makes it lean a little forward on the stand. This is easily correctable with the adjustment on the light itself. But a flat top post works much better. Other than that, I dig this set up. it comes with a bag, cell phone mounts, stand, filter, its dimmable and it comes with a bag to carry it all in! Ive passed on several ring lights in the past because the price was high, and the kit was small. but this pretty much has you covered to get to shooting or filming right out of the box!

Revision: Initially I thought the iphone holder screwed my phone in sideways- then I realized that this manufacturer included a piece with a ballbearing that allows you to screw the iphone holder TO the ball bearing piece TO the ring- and this allows you to adjust your phone perfectly to where you want it. This ballbearing item was not in the instructions manual because the provider added it themselves so that we could use the phone adapter. I am thankful for that. I did have some issues with the stand initially, because the stand is made for many uses besides just the ring light. The light does not sit snuggly on top of the stand at first. You must hold the light upright, and tighten the screw against the metal to hold it into place. I have spoken with the developers, and their customer service was exceptional. They listened closely to my concerns and the woman I spoke with had many solutions and ideas; I believe the product team will develop ways to improve the light and the stand connections. I look forward to their improvements and developments, so I think this company has a lot of potential. Currently I am satisfied with my ring light and it is securing to the stand well enough. I would like to try more of their products.

This is my first time writing a comment on the amazon product that I bought. I wrote this comment only because it is amazing! I really love this! I bought this light intending for some video and photo shooting. First of all, this can be compReese’s into a bag big light, so it is really convenient to carry around with me. You can change the angle of the light in whatever way you want, it is very flexiable. Adding to that, The part I love the most is its stylist, it is a really beautiful thing to put in your living room which would make your house seem more fashion! Talking about the light itself, there are two colors you can choose from, a white light and a yellow light, and you can change the color of the lights by simply getting rid of the light filter thing from it. White light is perfect for photo shooting while the yellow light is better for you to put when you are studying or reading a book. I have bought many products on Amazon, and this light is one of my favorite. But it! You won’t be disappointed. Trust me

This light ring is awesome! It comes with a carrying case and is very light. I can pack it anywhere I go and quickly setup for a vlog in my hotel room which is better than the bathroom light. It is very bright and well worth the value. I dont suggest turning it on to the brightest because it can actually damage your eyes. (Ive tried it and I was hurting for a while.) I also use this for product photography which provides great lighting and reduces the shadows. Im also glad that this orange filter is a single whole piece instead of 4 separate ones, that way I wont lose the separate pieces. All in all this ring light is great for many uses.

UPDATE: ZOMEi reached out to me to replace the stand with a heavier duty version that comes standard now. The customer service was enough to nudge my 3-star to a 4-star rating. ——————— I make YouTube videos and manage social media accounts, so a solid, minimalistic lighting and camera setup is imperative to me. Ive been using the 18" kit from Neewer for a while now, but I thought Id take a chance on this smaller kit. Heres what I found: PROS [+] Includes everything needed to make a good video setup (except for a camera) [+] Produces a spotty, shallow light that can be good for product reviews and B-roll footage [+] Aluminum dimmer switch is a nice feature CONS [-] Color casts rather blue (as shown in attached photo). - This can be corrected in the camera or by editing, but having a true color light would be better [-] White diffuser is not removable, so the tungsten filter cant be used at its fullest output potential [-] Quality control isnt there yet - my stand arrived with a broken leg [-] Not great for vlogging/talking head footage At a price point thats only $6 cheaper than their direct competitors who have a longer history of product development, its hard to justify spending $90 on this kit. This isnt built to the same standards as their competitors, but theyre pricing it nearly the same. I went in hoping for the best, but now I feel a little tricked. Hope to see the company make improvements with time!

Awesome Ring light! This light is brigt! I dont have good lighting for items I sell online but this works great! It is super bright and can be adjusted by the adjustable knob behind the light. The light comes with the soft white filter if you need, but the best attachement in my opinion is the attachment for the phone. If you look at the camera attachment and the led light their are attachemnts for the parts to be easily screwed on. The bag is great as well, can take the light anywhere i go, to use in the shop or kitchen as an extra light for videos. The stand folds up easily and can put it all away under the bed or in closet easily. Pictures say it better than words do, so check them out.

When placing your DSLR camera in the ring light via hot shoe connection I have zero problems. However, when I want to extend my shotgun microphone onto a boom stand (for shooting 5-7 feet from the camera) I get his terrible buzzing sound with my audio. Im using a 6 male/female 3.5mm extension wire (not cheap) to do this. The buzzing sound gets more intense when you turn the ring light up to maximum intensity. Im doing my best to troubleshoot this but it has not eliminated the issue. Ive looked for wires that might be in contact with each other and things like that but I cant pinpoint the problem. Maybe LEDS produce a frequency that causes this issue with microphones. I may just return this because Im definitely not happy right now! The lighting itself IS efficient and doesnt cause any issues when youre recording audio straight from the camera. Camera audio is not the best so thats why I use a separate microphone.

This ring light comes with everything you will need to take great photos or videos. In todays world most of us are making sure to capture beautiful pictures on our phones and share our best moments and this ring light provides that. My favorite feature was the ball bearing phone holder that helps catch the right angle and it is very secure. I will say though, that I was a bit intimidated when I saw all the parts but the manual it comes with made it easy (not to mention my husband is also very handy lol). Overall I think its pretty decent quality for the price.
