Anyone with a dark desk.
The Kiyo has a ring light around the lens, which helps when your room is dim and you do not want to buy a separate lamp. It is a simple way to fix a dark picture on a budget.
In three steps
- 01Plug in and choose it as the camera.
- 02Set the ring light low, enough to lift your face.
- 03Run the free lighting check here.
What works
- + Ring light built in
- + Compact
What doesn’t
- – Lower resolution than the Brio
- – A ring light is harsh if turned all the way up
