Since I started reviewing gadgets for Digital Camera World, I’ve upped my photography game by hiring models instead of shooting friends and family. As well as looking good in photos, models don’t moan while I fumble around in my kit bag looking for a photography accessory. Another big improvement to my photography has been achieved by using continuous LED lighting.
Even a single LED makes a big difference. I can use an LED to fill in the harsh shadows caused by strong sunlight, or add a rim light that makes the model stand out from the background and makes their face look more three-dimensional. Most LEDs are relatively compact, but sometimes you might want to travel even lighter, and that’s where the Neewer Basics FL20 20W RGB Portable Photography Flashlight comes into play.
