NEEWER Ring Light 18inch Kit: 55W 5600K Professional LED with Stand and Phone Holder, Soft Tube & Bag for Tattoo Lash Extension Barber Makeup Artist Studio Video Photography Lighting, RL-18

Lighting can be changed depending on what you are going to use it for. Tripod to hold the ring light up is sturdy and stable. Great value for everyday use

Excellent Quality! A few key points to specify are its height adjustments (It can reach somewhere in the line of 7-8 feet when fully extended). It’s on the heavy side, but very versatile. It all fits within the included carrying case. It two color options for the lighting, whether you’re looking for a warmer or a more white tone. And has a great lighting intensity.

Its sturdy and assembly was easy. The chord is long so you have room to play with it. On camera lighting is amazing and on live streams ring light is all you need. Adjustable light strength is superior. This is a 10/10. Spend the extra dollars and dont ve like me and buy a cheap $20 ring light expecting good quality videos and streams.

Love this ring light ! Super bright you can adjust the lightening and height of the ring light! The setup was easy! It comes with two light color covers that you can change. I used it for makeup hair and just lightening in my house!

Great set of lights very powerful about all of these if you’re posting taking video or live stream, these lights will offer enough light to get the job done to let you see and others be able to see you clearly would recommend this to anybody that needs a great pair of lights These are professional lights that work great

Review is for the Neewer 18 inch ring light. I point out several negative things in my review, but that does not mean this is a bad product. It is a good product I would recommend.I purchased this to better illuminate products I sell. I also use it for live streaming. It is extremely bright and at its max could be temporarily blinding. I would suggest not using full brightness until you are familiar with it. The brightness is easily adjusted with a dial at the base of the light. Setting the brightness a little less than half way works well for pictures of products. Setting it to Half way is a sweet spot For live streaming. The light looks natural and colors are true to life. I use the frosted covers to help diffuse the light. The quality of light is excellent. Pictures I take with my phone look just as good with the ring light as they would in natural light. Using the light with a webcam looks amazing.The ring light is extremely large. I did not consider just how large an 18 inch light is prior to ordering. Make sure you can accommodate such a large light. It is an eye sore. It's Not something you want to keep out on display. Fully extended it is very tall and if bent at the gooseneck or joint will easily topple over. It is very top heavy. I attach a couple of bungies to something sturdier to help secure it. The stand can be adjusted to many different heights.The light turns in any direction. The phone cradle works for taking pictures without shadowing, but It is flimsy and a bother to adjust. It can be removed and replaced as there is a 1/4 inch screw. The legs are wonky and if used any other way than extended outward flat will make it unstable. The ring light does come apart from the base so it can be hung or mounted if needed. Adjusting the knobs, gooseneck, and joints to get the light positioned properly can be cumbersome.A few other things I want to mention. The light puts off barely any heat. It comes with instructions, but the translation is bad. It's not the easiest to set up, but If you can program a VCR you won't have any problem setting it up. The build quality is cheap. I don't expect The stand and knobs to last more than a few years. The actual ring light while it is cheap seems like it will last much longer. I haven't used the remote. The orange covers for light diffusion serve no purpose. The clear covers make a big difference. I didn't use them at first, but after trying them I use them all the time. The carrying bag is nice, but I never take the light anywhere so I don't use it.To summarize my review of the Neewer 18 inch ring light. The quality of light and brightness are excellent. It is so much better than other ring lights I have used. Take size into consideration. Build quality is cheap, but is average For similarly priced ring lights. I can definitely recommend the Neewer 18 inch ring light. The only reason I won't give five stars is the cheap build.

I maintain a private web page of technical information and reviews, and have been trying to get more pictures added in to illustrate my choices of hardware and show walk-throughs of various construction projects. Lighting is always a problem for me though, and I bought this ring light recently to try to solve my problems of deep shadows, poor contrast, and glare. So far, this light has worked out really well in all those areas.The light is larger (wider) than the pictures in the listing suggest, and has a large number of individual LED modules in the ring, so it produces a very even lighting. I'm not using it for portraits so I don't need the orange diffuser or the remote. The body of the light is all plastic, which gives it a kind of cheap feel, but it's sturdy and being lightweight should help others. (it might not survive drops well, so be careful with it, make sure it doesn't get knocked over while in use) The stand is a thin metal which also feels a little cheap but that's good for the same reason as the body. The feet extend out quite a bit and create a surprisingly wide support base. Before i attached the diffuser, I found I was seeing speckles of light glare reflected off some of the shinier surfaces, but those "stars" all disappeared as soon as I attached the diffuser. I suppose the orange one creates better lighting for portrait pictures?It comes with a large power brick with an okay length cord. (could be a little longer, but that's not hard to fix with an extension cord) The dimmer is built into the bottom of the light, and has knob to turn to adjust brightness. The control does a great job of adjusting the brightness, and I love the feel of the knob, you can feel tiny "steps" as you turn the knob. It's also fully adjustable all the way down to completely off. Thankfully, the cord unplugs at the light, so I'm not struggling to manage a cord permanently attached to the ring.The light comes with several accessories for use with a regular camera as well as clipping a smart phone. There's also a little remote that I assume you can use with a downloaded app on your phone to trigger the shutter remotely, though I don't have any use for that and haven't checked it out. The light and accessories ship in a nice bag but the tripod is in its own box and cannot be stored in the bag that the light came with, which is a shame. But with the tripod fully collapsed, I've found it can be set snugly below your hand / on top of the bag as you carry it, so that will help with those that need portability. I would also suggest getting a small, stiff-walled zip pouch to carry the light's power pack and phone brackets with inside the main bag, because it has no inner pouch for these and just dropping them into the big bag to run around free is probably a bad plan.And not that I need it personally, but I think a battery pack option would be a very useful accessory with this light, which would improve its portability. The pack is 15vdc 4 amps, which may make finding a battery pack a challenge since I'd expect 12v power to be more common.So this is a great light for the price. There are only a few minor issues with it that can be addressed if needed, totally acceptable considering this light is like 1/3 the price of a more professional set with similar features and performance.

Had my bad boy for 6 years with no problems at all and it’s finally giving out. This light is almost sentimental. We have been through multiple storms nights and homes together.
