You know your streaming setup is really getting professional when you add a separate light, though maybe we’re all a bit more used to that after endless months of video calls and conferences. If you’re putting yourself on camera then a separate light source can make more of a difference than you might think.

Something like the Neewer Tabletop LED Video Light pack ($74) is ideal for streaming purposes, because it’s simple to set up, offers plenty of illumination, and can be dimmed or brightened to just the right level for your scene. The ESDDI PLV-R120 ($20) is a ring light for a more focused source of illumination, with three light temperatures to choose from.
