In the field of photography, both professional photographers and amateur enthusiasts have extremely high requirements for lighting. In the selection of photography fill light beads, LED beads have become the preferred choice due to their energy-saving, environmentally friendly, and long lifespan advantages. So, there are various options for LED light beads commonly used in photography fill lights, each with its own characteristics in brightness, color rendering, color temperature, etc., to meet the needs of different photography scenes. Here are some common types of photography fill light LED beads: What LED beads are used for photography fill light beads?
LED light beads with a color temperature of 5600K-6500K are currently the most common photographic fill light beads on the market. This color temperature LED bead can provide warm and natural light, suitable for use in portrait photography, indoor shooting and other scenes. In addition, these types of LED beads also have a high color rendering index, which can restore the true color of the photographed object and improve the quality of the photo.
Hailongxing 2835 LED beads
Features: High color rendering (high RA value), commonly used in photographic fill lights, can provide more realistic and rich color reproduction.
Application: Suitable for live streaming, short video shooting, portrait or still life photography and other scenes.
LED beads with a color temperature of 3500K-4500K
The LED beads with a color temperature of 3500K-4500K are suitable for capturing sunset, dusk and other scenes. This color temperature of light presents warm tones, which can create a romantic and warm atmosphere, making it very suitable for shooting subjects such as portraits and landscapes. At the same time, these LED beads also have high brightness, which can provide sufficient fill light effect in darker environments. For example, 5050 LED beads
Features: It has high brightness and power, suitable for photography scenes that require strong light sources.
Application: Commonly used in situations such as film and television shooting, advertising shooting, etc. that require high brightness light sources.
RGBW Four in One LED Bead
RGBW four in one LED bead is an LED bead that integrates red, green, blue, and white light, and can freely adjust the output color according to needs. This type of lighting fixture is suitable for shooting special effects, advertising and other fields, and can achieve rich visual effects by adjusting color parameters. At the same time, RGBW four in one LED beads also have a high energy efficiency ratio, which can reduce energy consumption while ensuring fill light effect. For example, the 5054RGB integrated light can adjust colors and is used for shooting special effects, advertisements, etc
3528 LED beads
Features: Although not as bright as the 2835 and 5050 bulbs, it excels in its small size, ease of integration, and suitability for devices with limited space.
Application: Small photography lights, fill lights, etc.
White LED beads are a type of LED bead that combines multiple color temperatures and can provide various light sources ranging from warm white to cool white. This type of lighting fixture is suitable for various shooting scenes, meeting the needs of photographers for different color temperatures while ensuring the uniformity of overall lighting. In addition, white LED beads have high durability and anti-interference ability, making them an ideal choice for photography fill lighting.
COB (Chip On Board) light source
Features: High integration, good lighting effect, able to provide more uniform and soft light.
Application: Film and television shooting, large live streaming rooms, photography studios, and other occasions that require high illumination intensity and uniform lighting.
5mm high color rendering LED beads
Features: High Color Rendering Index (CRI), capable of reproducing the true color of objects.
Application: All photography scenes that require accurate color reproduction, such as product photography, still life photography, etc.
2835 dual color temperature LED beads
Features: It has two color temperatures, cold light and warm light, which can be freely adjusted according to shooting needs.
Application: Photography scenes that require flexible adjustment of lighting and atmosphere, such as portrait photography, video shooting, etc.
The LED beads with a color temperature of 2700K-3200K are suitable for shooting night scenes, starry skies, and other scenes. This color temperature of light presents a cool tone, which can express the mystery and quietness of the night. At the same time, these types of LED beads also have low power consumption, which can save power while ensuring the fill light effect. Infrared LED beads
Features: Mainly used for night photography or monitoring with supplementary lighting, invisible light, and does not interfere with the subject being photographed.
Applications: Night vision devices, night surveillance cameras, etc.
3、 Other precautions
Light source type: Currently, the mainstream photography fill lights mainly use LED light sources, including granular LED beads and LED patches. LED chips have higher power and stronger brightness, but they are also relatively expensive; The LED beads concentrate the light and illuminate a longer distance.
Number of LED beads: The more LED beads there are, the higher the brightness and power will naturally be, but heat dissipation and energy consumption issues also need to be considered.
Color temperature selection: Photography fill lights have monochrome and dual color temperature options, and a wider range of color temperature changes can help enhance the creativity and fun of shooting.
There are many types of LED chips used for shadow fill light, such as LED chips with a color temperature of 5600K-6500K, LED chips with a color temperature of 3500K-4500K, LED chips with a color temperature of 2700K-3200K, etc. When choosing fill light bulbs, photographers should select suitable LED bulbs based on the shooting scene and needs, in order to better play the role of photographic fill light.
