Review on πŸ’‘ GIM 4.6 Inch LED Ring Light Lamp with Tripod Stand: Perfect for Makeup, Selfies & Videos by Tony Baker

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Best budget green screen lighting option.

I've done a lot of green screen work for my RSS comment show where I annotate RSS feeds with multiple cameras and 2 green screen configurations. This is the best cheap LED green screen light, even compared to daylight LED. One green screen is lit with cheap LED daylight bulbs and the other with a 6000K LED strip ($22) with two of these "4.6" GIM LED Ring Lights with Stand" no mirrors and antenna. You get one Camera clip ($5) for each of the two stands. I had to choose 6000K because I couldn't find any 5600K or 5500K LED strips. I use strip lights to reflect the light around the room and place them perpendicular to the ceiling. The Lighting is perfect, for my main camera I used two of these GIM 4.6 LED Ring Lights with Tripod Stand bounced off the wall with a white blackout curtain. That was enough for the upper body but not for the lower body, so I had to switch to using two 45W LED rings. I've been trying to replace the "GIM 4.6" LED Ring Light so I can turn on all the lights at once, but a pair of LED sticks is $90 and you need two of them and you still need a stand. The small size of this kit with an extended cable and an additional USB port on the "GIM 4.6"LED Ring Light" that allows you to connect another light source with a single USB plug makes this light the perfect budget green screen light. I just wish they would get rid of the phone jack and add a camera clip.

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Not bad but...
