3-Lamp Fluorescent Ring Light 19"
INSTRUCTIONS
2
Thank you for choosing Impact.
The Impact 3-Lamp Fluorescent Ring Light 19"is a continuous
light for photography and video. It casts a soft, wraparound
glow without the harsh shadows of conventional ashes.
Three uorescent lamps produce a pleasing daylight color at
5200 K for natural light quality, and white lining in the housing
maximizes the output. The uorescent lamps minimize heat so
you can get close to your subject, which is ideal for portrait or
product photography.
Each lamp has an independent power switch, allowing
individual selection of the lamps. The tilt-and-ratchet stand
mount attaches to most light stands that have a 5/8"mounting
stud. And most small- to medium-size camera and lens combos
will work with the 100 mm lens opening and camera-mountable
bracket. The bracket is adjustable vertically and allows
adjustment of your camera horizontally for a universal t.

Operating Instructions
Adjusting the angle
Rotate the ratchet-and-tilt locking handle
counterclockwise until loose. When there is no more
room to swing the ratchet handle, pull the handle out
until it’s able to freely rotate back to another position, and
continue to loosen. Tilt the ring light xture to the desired
position. Rotate the handle clockwise to tighten.
Attaching the camera bracket
Gently place the Ring Light
facedown on an even surface.
Unscrew and remove the
camera bracket locking knobs,
and place two of the included
rubber washers over the
threaded sockets. Align the
camera bracket cutout with the
sockets, and keep the padded
arm facing upwards and behind
the lens opening. Place the remaining two rubber sockets
onto the bracket, and then insert and tighten the bracket
locking knobs until secure.

Attaching your camera
Align the lens of the camera

the camera bracket vertically

screw. Rotate the locking
screw counterclockwise until
your camera is securely attached to the bracket.
Attaching the diffuser
With both hands, place the
elastic lip of the diffuser
