Ring lights are ideal for macro photography, as their round shape allows them to produce a soft and even spread of artificial lighting. Their round shape allows your camera lens to be positioned directly in the middle of the light source, assuring an even coverage of lighting throughout your entire frame. The best ring lights allow the lighting output to be controlled, and in some cases, both sides of the light to be adjusted independently, which allows for more creative macro lighting techniques.

At Ted's, we have ring flashes, which have been used by macro photographers for a number of years, as well as LED ring lights, which are considered to be a little easier to use for beginners and are also more suitable for vlogging. Want to discuss ring lights in greater detail? Feel free to chat with us online or to head into your local Ted's store.

The Fresnel divides and scatters light through the hills and valleys of low-resolution 3D printing. As if ripples in water, the concentric design sees glittering bands pulsate outwards from a central, steel droplet.
