Ring Light Macro Ring Flash

Macro ring light led flash made by Neewer® FC100 LED Macro Ring Flash With 7 Adapter Rings for Canon EOS 1D/ 1Ds Series 7D/5D MarkII 60D 50D 40D 30D 20D 10D 550D 500D 450D 400D 350D 300D, Nikon D7000 D3100 D3200 D5100 D5000 ,Sony and Other Digital SLR Cameras and sold through Amazon

This ring contains 32 LEDs that can be on as a constant light, of used as a ring flash (all 32 LEDs) or used as a flash (16 LEDs left or 16 LEDs right).

The colour temperature is 5500k approximately. The ring light fits to the filter thread at the front of the lens using one of the seven adaptor rings that are supplied. The thread size of the seven adaptor rings are as follows: 52mm, 55mm, 62mm, 67mm, 72mm and 77mm, this range I find covers all the lenses that I would use. The ring light can also be used off-camera, which allows for side lighting to fill shadows. The range of the ring light is between 5 and   150 cm with a guide number of 15(GN). The led ring light flash exposure is adjustable by +3EV to -3EV, this is useful when using the macro ring flash attached to the camera and working close to the subject.

With a price of only £18.94 at the time of this post why would you not buy the Neewer® FC100 LED Macro Ring Flash With 7 Adapter Rings for Canon EOS 1D/ 1Ds Series 7D/5D MarkII 60D 50D 40D 30D 20D 10D 550D 500D 450D 400D 350D 300D, Nikon D7000 D3100 D3200 D5100 D5000 ,Sony and Other Digital SLR Cameras sold through Amazon.

When the control unit is in the hot shoe of the camera, if the led ring is not used for 30 seconds the unit will revert into sleep mode. Pressing any button or the shutter release will wake up the light ring, thus extending the battery life of the 4 AA batteries.

The sync speed for use as a flash is 1/100 second. The construction of both the control unit and the ring led light are of plastic, though they have both been well assembled and operated just as described. The approximate weight of the kit is 230 grams.

 

I am not subsidised in any way or form by Neewer.

 

Buy the Neewer® FC100 LED Macro Ring Flash With 7 Adapter Rings from Amazon.

It won’t cost you any extra, but it will contribute towards the running costs of this site.

Thanks Alex
