Bendy Light for Macro Mushroom & Fungi Photography - Smallrig RM03

Video Description

In today's video I do a review on a Bendy Light for Macro Mushroom & Fungi Photography - using the SmallRig RM03 Macro Photography LED Light. This video is not sponsored or have I collaborated with SmallRig, I have purchased the SmallRig RM 03 light with my own money to shoot macro mushroom photography. So its my own personal review of what I thinks of the light and how it works with Pros and Cons. To be fair there are no cons/negatives about this light apart from the usb charging cover which keeps popping open. On the Pros side it's a very affordable led light for macro or small product photography. As I said in the video if I had 3 of these light I could make a great little macro studio setup for my mushrooms photography. I'm not sure how long the battery lasts but I used it on full power for my macro mushroom shoot and it was fine. My SmallRigg cubes ran out of power and this bendy light kept on going! I purchased just one of these lights to test it against my cubes and will be getting another 2 as my go to macro mushroom kit! I use my Nikon Z9 for Landscape and Bird Photography but last year purchased the Micro Four Thirds Olympus OM1 camera and the Olympus 90mm Macro Lens for my macro photography at I liked the way the Olympus focused stacked the images and you could see it happen in the viewfinder. I use the lens wide open the try and get a softer blurry background to give a more 3D effect to the image. Being a micro 4/3rds camera using f4 is the same equivalent as f5.6 in a full frame camera, so you really don't need to stop down too much! I think I'm going to try the Olympus OM1 on a fine Art Landscape Photography shoot and see how it gets on! Exciting stuff! How I Post Process my mushroom and fungi focus stacked images, I use @AdobeCreativeCloud Lightroom Classic for cataloging and sorting my images and then I export each stack of images from lightroom to HeliconFocus where it does an amazing job of focus stacking the exported images really fast. Once it stacked I save back to lightroom as a dng file where it can be cleaned up in lightroom or exported to @Photoshop to clean up or use layers if required.
