Choosing the Best Ring Lights for YouTube Videos

Image
Shooting good video content requires more than an awesome script and a video camera. Lighting sets the mood and tone of your video and literally helps to make you look good. More importantly, good lighting makes you stand out as a professional video creator and an expert in your niche. Good lighting will help you attract larger audiences and more buyers for your products and services. What is a ring light? As the name suggests, a ring light is a light in the shape of a ring. The light source is usually either a circular fluorescent tube or hundreds of surface-mounted LEDs. The light source, either fluorescent tube or LEDs, sits in a circular housing. At one side of this circle, or ring, there is a control box/panel and mounting point. You can put the light on top of a stand using the mounting point. The panel will house the on/off switch and other pieces of electronics, such as dimmer controls. Circular lights with fluorescent tubes use electrical power directly from an electrical out

The best gimbals for your iPhone, GoPro, mirrorless camera or DSLR in 2022

Image
The best gimbals will ensure your footage looks smooth even when you're walking, running or making sudden movements. The best gimbals will help shoot professional-looking videos without any camera movement. Camera shake is an obvious sign you're an amateur and even if both your camera and lens have stabilization, you'll still see movement if you're shooting hand-held. If you're planning on walking or running while filming, you'll need a gimbal to ensure that your footage is as steady as can be. The best gimbals are mechanical stabilizers that use at least two but normally three axes of rotation to keep a camera steady. A gimbal compensates for unwanted movements such as shaky hands or little stumbles. Nowadays, gimbals are sophisticated bits of kit that are able to tell the difference between intentional and unintentional movements which allows the operator to be creative with shots. A good videographer will have thought about composition in filmmaking and a gim

Zhiyun Smooth Q3: The Best Budget Gimbal for Instagram Reels and TikTok

Image
It's lightweight, supports many popular phones, offers a rotatable fill light, and a modernized button layout to simplify usage. With the release of the Zhiyun Smooth Q3 , Zhiyun has instituted some heavy design changes from the Smooth Q2. As always, these are meant to streamline and better fit the current climate of smartphone video shooting. However, the question remains are these changes worth investing in, and are there any notable trade-offs. For past users of the Smooth Q2, the Zhiyun Smooth Q3 has moved away from its predecessor's design. Rather than continue forward with the aluminum alloy build of the Q2, users are instead given a lighter-weight, two-tone matte plastic build. In terms of its body design, it felt like it took lessons from the Smooth XS while attempting to improve on what it did well. With the Smooth Q3, there's a focus on grip ergonomics. Rather than deal with an unwieldy cylindrical grip, the formed plastic at the rear of the handle comfortably fit
