NEEWER RL-18

NEEWER RL-18 | Adjustable ring light for video and portraits

Two reflective silver layers sit around the LEDs, helping the NEEWER RL-18 keep its light soft even when you turn the brightness down. This 18-inch LED ring light has 240 SMD LEDs and is made for creators who need an even, front-facing source for video or photography. Its dimming range runs from 1% to 100%, so you can set the output for a close-up or a brighter room. The kit suits beauty professionals, podcasters and social-media creators: use it for make-up tutorials, podcast videos or portrait-style livestreams. A flexible gooseneck and ring head that tilts through 180° make it possible to position the light around a phone or camera setup. The package also includes a stand, smartphone holder and cold-shoe ball-head adapter. White and orange filters are supplied for changing the look of the light, while a 5600K colour temperature and CRI of 95 are specified for the LED source.

Why it is useful

• Reflective inner and outer layers: Silver surfaces around the LEDs soften the light, including at lower brightness settings. That’s useful for close-up beauty work where a harsh source can be distracting.
• 240 SMD LEDs: The ring uses a large array of small LEDs rather than a single point source. Its 45 cm outside diameter provides a broad light for faces and video setups.
• Wide dimming range: Output adjusts from 1% to 100%, giving you control over brightness for different rooms and subjects.
• Flexible positioning: The gooseneck bends into position, and the ring head tilts up to 180°. This helps accommodate different camera and subject angles.
• White and orange filters: The included plastic filters change the appearance of the light. The LED source is rated at 5600K with a CRI of 95.

Good to know

The included stand reaches 155 cm and folds down to 75 cm for storage or transport. For stability, keep the centre joint of the stand’s legs 10–20 cm above the ground; raising it higher can make the stand more likely to tip. A carry bag is included for taking the kit along.
