Macro Ring Light #3DThursday #3DPrinting

Surround macro-shots in light with this attachment from Spudd1 on Thingiverse:

Often with macro photography and filming it is hard to get good light on the subject. I use a system of extension tubes on my DSLR which gives great magnification, but has the downside that the subject has to be VERY close to the lens, which leaves little room for lights to be positioned.

So this is a solution I came up with, a Ring Light specifically designed for my lens and for macro work.

Every Thursday is #3dthursday here at Adafruit! The DIY 3D printing community has passion and dedication for making solid objects from digital models. Recently, we have noticed electronics projects integrated with 3D printed enclosures, brackets, and sculptures, so each Thursday we celebrate and highlight these bold pioneers!

Have you considered building a 3D project around an Arduino or other microcontroller? How about printing a bracket to mount your Raspberry Pi to the back of your HD monitor? And don’t forget the countless LED projects that are possible when you are modeling your projects in 3D!
