Ring Light for Macro Photography

thingiverse

This ring flash, created with affordable white LED PVC light strips (search "12v pvc light strip" on eBay), offers an even light source that illuminates the subject from the lens. By using this setup, photographers can avoid shadows from the camera or themselves in their shots. This design is meant for 3D printing and comes in three parts for smaller printers or one whole piece for larger ones; simply remove the bolt ears in the customizer if you have ample build space. The user is awaiting a longer light strip to complete their external track. This customizable ring flash accommodates different-length light strips, and instructions include steps for assembly, wiring (remembering polarity), and optional enclosure creation for the DC connector. The SCAD file provides the outer ring's circumference, while the inside track is shorter, requiring two distinct strip lengths for optimal results. Adjustments can be made to the wire box design using comments in the scad file and precise measurements of the DC adaptor for a snug fit. The hot shoe adaptor should fit most camera models but can be adjusted as needed.
