Logitech for Creators Litra Glow Premium LED Streaming Light with TrueSoft, adjustable mount, video lighting for recording streams, PC/Mac - Graphite

I was a little concerned after reading reviews on this light. Some of the reviews are just incorrect.First, the design: I have a large curved monitor with a small bezel and a curved back panel. I had a tough time finding a webcam that would work with this monitor, so I expected to have trouble installing this light. Not a problem at all. I could put it anywhere on the top of the monitor with no problem. I chose to move it off to one side to create more pleasing shadows while its on.Next: usability. There are buttons on the back for power, color temperature and brightness of the light. Easy to control manually. You can also control the light via software. This is where it gets awesome. You can manually set the light from the software, which is not a huge benefit. On the other hand, you can configure it to turn on when you open specific applications and you can configure the light qualities (color temp and brightness) by application. I only use this light with Zoom and Teams, so I configured it to turn on when those apps are opened. Now I don't need to remember to reach up and turn the light on when meetings begin. I believe the light can also be controlled via a logitech keyboard, but I cannot confirm because I use an Apple keyboard.Finally: light quality. The light panel is about 4"x4". The larger the panel, the softer the light. This light is nicely diffused, but if it were just a bit larger, the light quality would be better. I'm not complaining at all. Just be prepared that the shadows aren't super-soft. Not a big deal for me.Highly recommended!

I bought three of these lights for product reviews and instructional videos - they're fantastic! The lights are relatively inexpensive, they're easily mountable on poles, desk tripods, and monitors, and they don't take up much space.You can control them with the buttons on back or Logitech G Hub on your computer. They plug into a standard USB A type outlet...you probably have several on your computer, monitor, or chargers. You can also use a USB C cable and plug into the back of the light. Lots of functionality.The quality of lighting is also very good, it's diffused, but emitted from a small object that would still show up on your glasses for a webcam. I've seen streamers point them behind their monitor to the wall to eliminate the reflection in their glasses and provide softer, more even lighting.Overall, highly recommendable and you can occasionally catch them on sale.

Great light to light up your face for zoom meetings or streaming. FIts perfectly on your monitor next to cam. Great quality and functionality buttons are solid for changing lighting modes

Frequent pandemic Zoom meetings and classes made clear the importance of lighting. W/o any light, my face was typically dark because behind me are windows or lamps.Ring lights were an improvement, but they reflected in my glasses and the stands they came with took up too much space on my desk, or didn't allow me to get the light in the best position.The Logitech Litra Glow is an almost perfect solution for me.The light it gives off is perfect - not too harsh, doesn't make reflections in my glasses.The quality of the lighting is very adjustable: The light itself has 5 levels of brightness, and 5 levels of color temperature from warm candlelight to harsh blue office flourescent light. I like the middle setting for daytime, and one notch warmer than that for nighttime.The position of the light is also EXTREMELY adjustable: It rests reasonably securely on the back of your laptop screen or external monitor. The light can be raised or lowered, turned left or right, and tilted upward or downward. You can also remove the light from its monitor mount and put it on any tripod, which can be especially helpful for content creators. Also, you can adjust the monitor mount so it can be placed horizontally on your desktop, if you want the light to come at you from a different direction than your webcam, for example.You can use all these features without any app, but there's also an app called Logitech G Hub that you can use to control the brightness, color temperature, and power on/off from your computer. I like using the app because the physical buttons on the back of the lamp are a bit clickly, which isn't bad, but I prefer silent operation, especially if I need to make an adjustment while filming or while on a call. The app also shows you your face using your laptop's internal (or external if you wish) webcam, so you can find the best combination of brightness and color temperature.The light is powered via USB. You can plug it into any USB charger or portable battery, or you can plug it into a free USB port on your computer or computer hub. The light has a USB-C jack on the back and comes with a USB-C to USB-A cable. Since my Macbook has only USB-C ports, I am using a USB-C to USB-C cable (not included) to connect the light to my Macbook.The lamp and monitor mount are made of plastic, of course, but the build quality seems very good, certainly better and sturdier than other lamp I've tried for this purpose.I have only one minor criticism of the Litra Glow light: I wish the lowest brightness setting were a little dimmer. So far, it has not been a problem for me, but some content creators or some people with tricky lighting situations may find the lamp is a bit too bright at its lowest brightness setting.All things considered, the Litra Glow lamp is really excellent and highly recommended, and more than justifies its higher than average price.
