Product Description A very effective tool for macro photography, this ring light provides continuous illumination for small subjects. Control shadow effects by adjusting between left, right and full mode depending on your photo shooting conditions. Also suitable for cameras with lens diameters 49mm and 55mm using supplied lens adapter.

Flash WannaBe October 18, 2007 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Sony HVLRLAM Ring Light for Sony Alpha Digital SLR is most importantly NOT a Flash unit. It will provide light for close-ups but is not really suitable for anything approaching professional use in macro photography. Its main limitation is the limited brightness of the LED lights. The unit will not permit the use of very small F-Stops that are often desired in macro photography. For hand held purposes about f5.6 is about all that you will be able to use. Too bad Sony didn't continue the previous Real Flash units Konica-Minolta made for macro photography. I'd pass on this unit for anything other than casual home use - maybe for stamp collectors or that sort.
Ring light for Sony Alpha May 12, 2007 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
I like to take close-up (and macro) photographs of flowers and other small images and this ring light is all that I could ask. It allows me to photograph in lousy ambient light without the resulting photograph showing the defect in the finished photo. I also have been able to take extreme closeups of my grandson without distracting shadows. (I can always adjust the perceived lighting when using Photograph CS3.) An interesting side feature is achieved by only usin the lighting on one half of the image which does create shadows which are controllable by the using.
This is a winner.
