Lighting with Lowel Ego Ergo Light Alone

The Lowel Ego digital imaging light is ideal for shooting tabletop stills with digital (or film) cameras. It can also be used as a closeup portrait light for stills or video.


Basic Tabletop Setups

  • Place your camera on a tripod and frame your shot.
  • Place the Lowel Ego on the table to the right or left of the camera and experiment with placement to find a position & angle that gives desired results.
  • Check the shot on camera's LCD screen to make sure the light isn't visible in the frame.
  • If you want more even lighting across the subject, add the bounce reflector card as shown, on the opposite side of the light.
  • Experiment with placement of light & reflector, as shown with arrows. Also try adjusting rear tilt dial.
