You dont need a tripod for the light, but you do need a ligh stand, if not you can place it in between the camera and the tripod screw :)

The tripod needs to be a metal screw that is 1/4 of an inch. The metal stick, which I'm thinking is like a "L" shape on each end, is for your camera to be mounted on. Do not unscrew anything from the stick, use it as is. You will only need one tripod and a metal screw of a 1/4 inch thick. Hope this helps...

There is a piece that is kind of Z shaped that swears on a tri-pod and on the top of the Z shaped piece is a place to connect your camera, like a regular tri-pod. You will not have to have two tri-pods. I hope this makes sense haha.

There is no guide number its not a flash its an LED ring light you vary the brightness to where you want it and take the picture . There is a mode where it sends out a pulse of really bright light at the maximum of the ring light you have to adjust you shutter settings to get it where you want it in your pictures once you get it spot on its an awesome light but you have to be fairly close to the subject you cant be 3 feet back unless you set the camera to do so. It can be used in always on mode as well . If you are looking for a flash I suggest getting a ring flash they are brighter and better . If you want some thing thats pretty good for a lot of things thats cheap you cant go wrong with this ring light i have used it and gotten great flower shots, close ups of objects like food , jewelry, nature stuff ect.... oh yea the brighter bigger one has better color correction it makes things simply look better good luck to you, Mike

IT comes with a desk tri pod. It works great and is very sturdy. It adjusts the level of the mic up and down

You have to use the correct metal ring, included in the kit, for the lens to connect properly. All of the rings do not work, so look them over carefully and choose the correct ones, put the others aside so you don't get them mixed up.

I have the same question, because the one I just received also has no screw thread mount in the base. I have another flash holder that came with a piece that fits in its base with both 3/8" and 1/4" screw threaded holes in it, so it can be screwed solidly onto a light stand with either of these standard sized mounts. That piece fits nicely into this Interfit bracket, so I'm assuming that's what it's designed for. The question is, was this bracket supposed to come with a piece like this, or are we supposed to buy one separately? As it is, the bracket cannot be mounted to a standard light stand, because it doesn't have a screw thread piece in the base.

I have, but still used speedlite. The mount does not seem to be compatible with speed rings, but not 100% sure.

That's the rub. The company I purchased mine from advertised several adaptor rings including the only one I needed - the 52. When I received my light the 52 was not in the box. I called the seller and they shipped a 52 out that day. Was it inconvenient - a bit. But for the price and value I'd do it again. It's a handy light to have in your bag.

You just need two of these devices. One sits in the hotshoe of your camera and the other attaches by an included wire to your speed light. Turn them both on and you're done. It's very easy.

No stand is included. I attach the ring light to a tripod. Yes there is a camera mount included. You attach the tripod plate to the base of the light and use the tripod as your stand. A DSLR camera easily mounts with included hardware, there are screw knobs included to make the process fast.

just pull it out, there's a hole right above the camera. Stick it when a pen or just use your nail

As everyone else said the ring gets screwed to camera lens. Use UV filter to protect camera lens. Polarizer filter makes sky bluer and cuts glare on water. Florescent filter makes that type of light more natural. The macro filters can be used 1 at a time or 2 or more. Practice with them until you get the look you want. I haven't used the hood yet. Just try all the pieces and see the outcome. Have fun!

Hi, I m new to this too. This is just the ring that adapt to your camera, you need the part that goes from the telescope to this ring, see the available part from your telescope brand. Cheers

The tri-pod comes with a block that screws into the bottom if many different camera models. If your camera has a threaded hole in the bottom it should fit.

You have control of when it's on or off. There is a switch on it for on/off and there is also a switch to only light up the L or R side of the ring. It's in no way synced to your camera.

You need to get something to be able to move the camera around better than trying to move the camera using the mono pod and holding it still. I used the Manfrotto 486RC2 Compact Ball Head with RC2 Rapid Connect System. I use a 2nd one on my tripod.

It comes with everything you need to attach it to the camera shoe. You might need an adapter to attach it to a light stand. I only use it on my camera
