What lighting do you use? Diva Ring Light Super Nova??

I actually think a ring light might not be the right equipment for you. As you mentioned, you move around a lot and do what I eat in a day videos. A ring light is used for a stationary setting, such as sitting in front of a camera. I would look into soft boxes, as they can be repositioned much more easily, can be used to light both yourself and the surroundings and are a LOT cheaper to get.

Thanks! Yes that's exactly what I was thinking... I'm going to check out some soft box lights :) The Ring Light is amazing (I've been looking at reviews of it on youtube) but then every single time I move around I'm going to have that annoying cord I have to keep plugging in and out with a ring light.[DOUBLEPOST=1509371990,1509295032][/DOUBLEPOST]Cool! I've been doing a little research. I see that soft box lights are HUGE and my condo is tiny! =( ... so I don't know if soft boxes would be the best in my situation but then I found out about this product being sold on Amazon: Fovitec StudioPRO - 1x Bi Color 600 LED Panel - [Continuous][Adjustable Lighting][V-Lock Compatible][Stands Sold Separately]

... it's brighter than a soft box and most importantly it's much much smaller and takes up far less room and it's LED. It is also cheaper than the Nebula Ring Light. I just might buy one of these StudioPRO S-600BN lights it's selling for $199

I guess I'm going to use a single box light and then a single S-600BN. I am dying of curiosity to see what the results will be...

I also now see that those Ring Lights would be a mistake since I would be standing too far away from it... since I'm not doing makeup videos.[DOUBLEPOST=1509401820][/DOUBLEPOST]I'm buying these box lights from Amazon :)
StudioPRO Photo Studio 850W Auto Pop-up Softbox 20" x 28" Photo Video Lighting Kit (these box lights don't get hot or so they claim)

It's waaaaay cheaper than the Studiopro S-600BN LED.... and for now it's plenty good enough that's for sure.
