Whether for recreational or professional purposes, quality lighting is vital for live streaming or vlogging.
Photo and video content creators widely consider ring lights as “go-to” solutions for great reasons:
- Ring lights provide a relatively large light source for a single subject. This helps to create softer, more flattering light across the subject’s face.
- When positioned straight on, the wide surface area (without a center hotspot) virtually eliminates wrinkles, fine lines and under-eye shadows.
- Bi-color capable lights allow users to dial in to a color temperature to best complement their complexion or coordinate with warm ambient room lighting.
- LED lights are ultra long-lasting, run much cooler than conventional steady lights, and require little to no maintenance.
Savage offers an array of LED ring lights and accessories suited for beginners through advanced users. Compare specs below to find the best one for your needs!
