## Overview

The Opteka RL-12 Digital Macro LED Ring Light is designed for photographers using Canon EOS, Nikon, Sony Alpha, Olympus, and Pentax DSLRs. It features ultra-bright 12 LED lights, mounts on various lens sizes, and provides up to 200 minutes of continuous, shadow-free lighting at a color temperature of 5000K, making it perfect for close-up photography in various professional fields.

## Description

Do not settle for less. With a color temperature close to daylight (5000K) and a extended battery life (up to 200 minutes), the Opteka RL-12 surpasses all of the current ring lights on the market. Attaching the Ring Flash to the front of the lens of your cameras enable illumination of subject in Macro Close - Up photography at a shooting distance of up to approximately 31.5 inches. One thing your camera built-in Speedlight may not be able to do. The Automatic Macro Ring Light is the convenient and creative lighting solution for copying documents, medical, dental, nature and small subject photography at short working distances where built-in and conventional flash units are hard to use. Utilizing a circular tube as its light source for just the right amount of illumination, in certain situations, it might even be the only way possible to light your subject.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    It works.
  

*by J***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 25, 2012*

For I spent for it, the light works ok but strictly for close macro work only. The LEDs aren't especially bright so one has to be within six or eight inches for the light to be effective. The light is well diffused and doesn't create a harsh glare unless the subject has a high gloss.The big downside is the body of the light will block the sensors for any of the settings, such as exposure and focus. Manual settings have to be used.This works well for closeup macro work on immobile subjects for a high end point and shoot when used with a tripod. I got this for use on a Canon SX10 IS. Since the SX10 doesn't have threads to mount filters, etc., I had to get an adapter ring so it would fit on the end of the lens barrel which wasn't a problem since I knew this upfront. Using this with my camera on mobile subjects would be frustrating since the focus would have to be constantly fiddled with and manual focussing is a bit tedious. Those with higher end cameras would be better off with a higher quality macro flash.

    Usable, but not bright enough
  

*by R***L on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 8, 2011*

This light works as it should, but I just think it should have been designed with about twice as many led lights. It is well enough made, and fits my lenses just fine with the adapters. I have taken some decent macro photo's with it, but one smaller f/stop would have made for better depth of field and/or made it easier for handheld shots. If you like to shoot your macro shots with very shallow depth of field, as some people do, this light could work for you. If your macro photo is always done on a tripod it should work good for that. Any reflections in your subject will show the ring of spots made by the leds. On the plus side it was very inexpensive and so far has been trouble free. I would reccommend it to someone that understands these strengths and weaknesses, given the moderate price.

    Not bad for the money...
  

*by M***N on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 25, 2011*

This will be one of my "quick" reviews (i get very wordy on some).  I purchased this at work.  I needed to take lots of close-ups and our point and shoot camera was blowing out the photos with the flash enabled.  Without flash, there was too little light.  Many ring lights were ~$200, which was a bit much.  I wasn't looking for superior brightness or great color accuracy in the light source.  I just wanted to take some decently lit photos of failing solar panel components (i'm a reliability engineer).  This little guy really did the job well.  I never tried it with an SLR, so can't comment on the adaptor rings.  Ultimately, i ditched the camera in our lab and just shot photos with my iPhone 3GS. I held the camera lens of the phone in the middle of the ring light.  It worked quite well and i was able to easily pull off the photos back at my desk.So, this isn't a complete review, but i just wanted to chime in that it does the job.  Keep in mind that the quality of the plastics is quite cheap.  You're buying (and getting) and cheap ring light.  For my application, it worked quite well, but your mileage may vary...
