Now an exciting new addition to the Elgato lighting family, along with the Key Light and Key Light Air, the Ring Light has all the great smart features of other Elgato products.

Not only is the Ring Light adjustable up to 2,500 lumens brightness and boasts the same wide range of color temperatures as the other lights, but it also features a 17" double diffusion, flicker-free, edge-lit, OSRAM LED with a central (1/4" thread) ball mount for a camera The light is designed to be used in a variety of applications. This means that the camera can be moved independently of the light, yet the light is centered, giving the lens a sci-fi glow when gazed upon.

There are several inexpensive ring light alternatives, such as Neewer's ring lights, but we can't seem to find one with the same level of compatibility and adjustability Stream Deck's compatibility, app, and on-board controls allow Elgato lights to control Integrating them into the Center's streaming workflow is very easy; you can even use Siri to set up scenes for a hands-free experience.

However, the Elgato ring light is edge-lit and designed to be gentle on the retina, with two diffusers, one made of opal glass and the other of translucent grid panels.

The ringlight comes with a Master Mount S, a telescoping pole that can extend from 17" to 29" and is also compatible with Elgato's Multi Mount modular rigging system, allowing for serious customization. It also comes with a padded, extendable clamp so it can be mounted behind a desk or monitor (as long as the desk is thinner than 2.35 inches). [The Elgato Ring Light comes with a two-year warranty and looks to be a good choice for the price for streamers, videographers, and anyone looking for a stylish beauty/sci-fi look; retail price at the Elgato store is about $200. While that may be a little kinder on the eyeballs, it may not be so kind on the wallet.
