What are Ring Lights and Why are They So Popular
- by Bryan Veldboom - updated on 7/16/2021
In the last few years, ring lights have become the go-to solution for photographers, videographers, vloggers and TikTok users. But what are ring lights and why have they suddenly become so popular?
What are Ring Lights Good for?
As their name implies, ring lights are round in shape. This circular arrangement gives off an even, flattering light which minimizes shadows and blemishes on a subject's face. This makes them a perfect DIY solution for people looking to create professional looking photos or videos without the cost of expensive equipment.
Ring lights are very popular with TikTok users, vloggers and other content creators. If you're unhappy with the lighting in your social media selfies, a ring light can help you take them to the next level. They're also great for businesses looking to add some additional polish to corporate instructional videos and video calls with important clients.
