Hi, I’m Dorie, the host of this video: I love learning about the best (and worst) products, so if there’s something you’d like to learn more about, leave a comment! Also, even if you hate this video, please keep the comments nice as I am devastatingly sensitive and I will take them all to heart
I think they didn't really mention that it's basically a big version of a macro lens ring light, which in macro photography creates even light and minimal shadows for up close photos. The reason why it's so popular is because the circular shape lights you from all angles, so you get a turnkey solution to highlight your face consistently without bouncing lights to fill in shadows.
You could make a video about the basic principles of organizing your folders on your computer or to be more precise how to store/name/organize photos the correct way.
I've been doing that this past days on my new Hard Drive, and let me tell you, it's all up to your preferences, should I divide books by genre or by format? how many categoriies is too much? should I divide the resources of an University Class across Videos, Pictures and Documents or create a Folder exclusively for that on my user general folder? It's your decision.
So I assume the ring lights sold at Walmart are a complete waste of money. If I had to guess, Is say the put out between 150 to 250 lumen. But it seems weaker YOu can bet that the LEDS are not high quality or color accurate. They are also only step dimmable. In a lighted room their use is extremely subtle. And when checking out the other colors. They are no strong enough compete with diy studio lights. If they are the only light, yes the room will be lit. But it'll be pretty dark.
I have a nice big window to the left of my computer but I look awful on zoom - very washed out and every blemish shows. Why do you say that natural light is so great as that is not my experience?
Maybe try this- I have a sheer white curtain over my own window and it softens the light coming in and brightens more evenly. But note that my house face east to west and the window I am using is facing north so it never has the sun shining through it. So I just get the brightness of outside coming in
The principle is to only choose the right and not the expensive. This principle applies only to popular demand. Now the common parameters of the latest lamps in 2022: 1. (1) There are 10 levels of brightness, and the color temperature is 2900K-6700K. If you can't reach it, you can pass it directly, because they are out of date; (2) The computer clip used by 6-8inch has the disadvantage of damaging the computer screen. 10-12inch use desktop stand, limited lighting range and usage scenarios. 14-16 inches, these two sizes are relatively small, neither big nor small, and the scope of application is limited. 18-20 inches, more recommended, the brightness and usage scenarios can meet most needs, 21-22 inches, the brightness is better, but due to the large head of the lamp, the bracket is unstable and easy to tilt. (3) Most of the brackets on the market are of the same specification, and the selling points of each are concentrated on the ring light. 2. 1%-100% LED display, I suggest that non-professional photographers do not need to choose, can you see with your eyes where the difference in brightness between 10% and 15% is? When we generally use it, we use our eyes to see if it meets our lighting effects. It is just like the general rotation and buttons to adjust up and down. 2. There are two types of power supplies, one is USB and the other is Power Adapter with Plug. If you have high requirements on the brightness of the light, choose the Power Adapter with Plug, because it includes all the brightness of USB and higher. 3. The number of lamps directly affects the effect of lighting. The more lamp beads of the same specification, the more evenly distributed the light. Color Rendering Index CRI>90, the higher the CRI, the better, the closer to natural light, the more expensive the price. 4. The more lamp beads of the same specification, the more uniform the light will be. If you can't remember so many parameters, it doesn't matter. Look at the title. The parameters displayed in the title represent the seller's advantage. If the advantages of the title cannot reach the above parameters or the description indicates that this parameter is lower than the basic parameters on the market, Sellers want to highlight their advantages and make you want to buy. Different usage needs, you can choose the one that suits you according to your own needs. mtw.so/6aV1zK
I'm sorry but it's influencers that push the concept of ring lights I think you need to look a little further back in history there used to be ring lights around the front of a lens on a camera
I am watching a show right now where a lady has a ring light in front of her face and she’s talking on the camera and I can see one quarter not even one quarter I’d say probably an eighth of her face. Her right cheek is the only thing that showing because the rest of her face is completely washed out from the ring light that is off to her left it’s ridiculous. It’s totally stupid, this makes no sense to me at all. The ring light should’ve never been invented get rid of them you don’t need them!!! OK now that I’m done with my rent I would like to tell you all to please stay blessed like I know you are! ❤️📖🙏🏻❤️!!!

Great video! Good audio from guests. Love to learn about WiFi picks and testing.
Not related to the video but you are just soooo beautiful!!!!! Amazing video though! Very informative!☺️☺️
devastatingly sensitive - you're so adorable haha
I've been using a lamp pointed at a piece of printer paper as my lighting for video calls, but I should probably upgrade

This was fabulous @dorie!!!! It was so fun collaborating on this. Seriously the best team ever!
These videos keep getting better.

Get out of my pc it's organized for me not you, mind your own business.
I've been doing that this past days on my new Hard Drive, and let me tell you, it's all up to your preferences, should I divide books by genre or by format? how many categoriies is too much? should I divide the resources of an University Class across Videos, Pictures and Documents or create a Folder exclusively for that on my user general folder?
It's your decision.
how in the hell is this connected with the video on ring lights???
This exactly the information I was looking for regarding using a ring light!
Great video, which ring light product did you suggest in the video?
but why is a ring shape good? I understand that they're intentional and portable. Why not be a solid circle?
So when the mother ship comes and you see their ring light you won't be scared and will go more willing.
Education in simplicity
Thanks Dorie, very helpful. I was about to go an buy a cheap ring light, but I think now I will spend a little more. Appreciate your work.

No. Ring light reflections in the eyes look like crap. What you need is a softbox, diffuse light.
Just throw half a blanket cover over it. Diffuse it
Wow, very helpful! Thank you!
Hi, Does anyone know how many lumens are adequate to use in a medium-sized room? From a 18 inch ring light?
'bout tree fiddy
69-420
Very helpful, thanks.
Thank you.
Good video.

I've found the window in front of my computer gives me better lighting if I pull the shade about halfway down...otherwise too much bright light!
LOVE IT!
so useful!!!!
Can be used as a toilet seat if you get tired of being an influencer.
Beautiful ❤️

I LOVE 💕 ALL Light!!!
I surely love what I saw! You're the most beautiful host I've ever seen on TH-cam!
I hate the circular catch light in the eyes. It’s so cringey. Why do people like that?

I make music videos.
Will ring light improve my videos
Ring lights are demonstrably overrated.
Ring lights make you look dead inside
Lol what, how
I still look haggard with the fcking light.
🙄 waste of money.
The way these women talk I can tell they are tik tok users.
They are from another planet and sound like pre teen girls
Spotted the Focusrite interface at 2:39 - nice 😎
