SAMTIANRing Light, 18 Inches Adjustable Shooting Light, Dimmable Bi-color SMD 512 LED YouTube Light, Photography Lighting Kit with Stand, work with Smartphone and SLR Camera

The media could not be loaded.  I do amateur photography and have a basic set up at home with a mini studio set up. I have a few powerful LED panel lights but always found that shooting the subject with flash head-on left the image looking harsh. I was looking into ring lights as this allows you to have light straight into the subject whilst allowing you to take the photos from the same position as with other normal panel lights the camera would be in the way and cast unwanted shadows.The kit comes with everything you need to set it up with the added bonus of a Bluetooth remote, which I actually want aware that you get as part of the kit which was a nice surprise and very handy.For a budget light ring (and these things sore into the hundreds) it's well made and offers a good amount of control over the amount of light and the level of warmth you want in your shot.It might not be as powerful as others offer but it's enough for close up photography which is what I do. The light has defuser panels attached that can be removed to allow for slightly harsher lighting, depending on your needs.It comes with a carry case so you can pack everything away for storage or travel.My Mrs has temporarily (I hope it's temporary 😂) commandeered the ring light so she can have it Infront of a mirror for doing her make up and unfortunately for me..... She loves it! So I might have to get another one that she can use.Good value for money, well made and does what I need it to 👍🏻All in all I'm happy with this

Not unexpectedly, the power unit failed on the initial test setup. Unfortunately what could have been a quick repair job was hindered by certain companies habits of hiding their 'top secret' circuitry under layers of thick resin, which probably caused the initial breakdown in the first place. This cost me a new slightly higher rated power pack rather than making a return with the eventuality of similar results on a new unit. The light unit itself is exceptional value for money and performs really well in the studio. It's more than enough for vlogging and interviews as well as the run of the mill close-up work and portraiture.It is cerainly more up for the purpose than some other brands. If you understand your exposures and lighting levels you can achieve some classic results for your portfolio.

For my side hobby project got this quick foldable light. Ideal big size for bright colourful photo shootings.It came with carry base and big triangle stand.Stand quite large and can be adjusted upto 2m hight. On the end of legs it has rubber material, gives more stability and goesnt scratch the floor.Light has long extended cable, which ideal when working with it.On bottom of ring it has 2 manual adjustments, light brightness and warm white to cold white adjustment .Good value for it’s quality.

Negatives:This is noway near bright enough to replicate sunlight and so on its own its not sufficient for portrait photography or blogging in a dark room if you have lights in the background.The tripod is extremely flimsy, holds the device but im certain this will come loose very soon and will need to be replaced, which is going to be a problem as this unit can only be attached in a limited way (see pictures). It is not a standard 1/4 inch screw mount.The plastic used looks and feels very cheap.PositivesThis is brighter than most ring lights, it is priced very well.Light is variableLight colour is also variable.Light is well diffused.It is priced very well.Overall im happy with my purchase, you can see pictures of the results it produces.

I rarely write reviews but I felt it appropriate as this product was very poor quality.Positives:•Lovely size•Loved the bag it came in because I could put everything in it•Cable was long•Light was really good and made a massive difference to the pictures•Quick deliveryNegatives•The light wouldn’t stand at 90 degrees and kept dropping•the mechanism for keeping the light on the stand went after less than a week so had to send it back.

The light it emits us very good and looks professional. However the tripod is very dodge where you connect it with the ring light itself. I could not tied it as far as it could go but could not hold it upright but at an angle. Otherwise it's a good light overall But the stand is not.

Brilliant as described such good quality for the price would 100% recommend.. purchased for the salon beauty room and a lot of people ask where I got it from, made such a difference and so much better lightening for my beauty services! Thank you

Honestly the best thing I’ve brought! I was looking online for ages trying to find the best one then my friend recommended this one and it’s just the best I’m a beautician so its perfect to have while I carry out treatments. Also amazing for photography, selfies as well perfect for everything and it’s so bright! Love both settings x
