I just couldn't see paying those prices for a ring light. A little PVC, plexiglass and LED's, and we're ready to go.    I should have stopped down to f22, instead of f16. But I'll get some practice and refine the exposures. |

I used some PVC plumbing parts to build the housing. 4" outside diamater, inside diameter to hold a 49mm filter ring, glass removed. 1.5" total depth of unit. 5- 5mm leds, super brights 5-10mm leds, super brights Aluminum foil for reflector surface AC to 9vdc adapter for power, can also use 9 vdc battery. Pic was taken at 6" with 100mm macro lens, 400ISO on the ist DS. Color leans to blue side. Auto levels pops it right into line.  Anything I have not covered, just give me a holler. |
