A good ring light flash (NOT macro) for a Nikon D7000?
I have been looking online for a good ring light flash for my camera. Unfortunately, the only thing I can find are flashes that have no description of whether they will work with my camera or not. If anyone can post a link that would be really helpful, especially to a site that will also give some good descriptions of the item.
Paloroid has some good ring light flashes. Amazon is a good place you could search.hey give good description of their products http://www.amazon.com/...zon.com/b/
Ring-light flashes are typically for macro use.
I'm not sure what your application is for a ring-light flash other than macro.
Generally ring light flashes are low power, so they can't be used for anything but macro as they can't go far.
Low power flashes are OK for macro, but not much anything else.
The common use of a ring flash IS macro. Actually, I can't think of another. What about the flash are you wanting to know about exactly? Here is a highly reputable online store.
Every ring-flash out there's designed for close-up/macro work, that's the way it is! Maybe if you told us what camera you have and what you are trying to do, we could help you more!
Maybe you are thinking of a "beauty light", a totally different animal.
"Ring flash" units are designed for macro work
Here is a link to one of those type flash modifiers.
While ring-lights CAN be used in portraiture to give even lighting, their primary use is macro work - hence the low power.
Check out individual models for compatibility - this is where your local dealer comes in - but you're stuck with a high price and low power, because that's the nature of the beast.
Ring flashes were originally developed for macro use, but some fashion photographers have used them for general use. You will probably find most ringflashes described as 'macro'. You need a screw-in fit to your lens, thus you need to specify what the filter diameter of your lens is (not the 'focal length' or zoom rating), and indeed the flash will need a connector to the hot shoe on your csamera, so you need to specify which camera and which lens you intend to use.
