Neewer LED Bi-Color LCD Display Video Lighting Kit

LCD, or “liquid crystal display,” is a technology that consists of two layers of polarized glass that have a liquid crystal solution in between them. As electric currents pass through, the crystals align, making it either possible or not possible for light to pass through; this functions like a shutter. LCD and LED (light-emitting diode) lights are convenient camera accessories that provide consistent lighting when taking photos or recording video.

The term LCD has morphed into LED LCD as the technology has evolved. LED LCD lights use smaller, highly efficient LEDs, producing a bright illumination that makes pictures and videos look better than ever. LCD display lights are not costly, and even the most inexperienced photographers can use them to get great results.

LCD display lights come in a range of prices. Some are a la carte, while others have lots of accessories included, like batteries, stands and even velvet bags. Newbies may want to start small, while more confident users can spring for a more involved kit. LCD display lighting paraphernalia can be a great way to save on the photography costs for an upcoming event like a wedding.

• LCD lights provide different color, temperature and brightness options, so you can be very picky about the type of light that you want.
• If you are just starting out, opt for a basic, hotshoe mounted light. If you’re not familiar with the term “hotshoe,” it is a mounting point that is on top of the camera.
• Check the product description carefully to see if the light is compatible with your camera or smartphone shooter.
• Consider whether any stand will do, or if you’ll need one that is adjustable.
• Talk to other photographers about which lights work best for them before making a purchase.
