Weefine Ring Light 1500
The Weefine Ring Light 1500 (model WF108) is a purpose-built underwater LED ring light engineered to deliver consistent, shadow-free illumination for macro and close-up photography. Equipped with 1500 lumens of continuous light output (CRI 80, 5700 K) and an optional manual strobe mode reaching 1800 lumens, this light addresses two primary challenges faced by underwater photographers: achieving even lighting at close range and reducing shadows that mask fine details.
Crafted with professional-grade specifications, the Weefine Ring Light 1500 features a 90° beam angle that evenly blankets subjects in soft, high-quality light. The stepless dimming control knob allows continuous adjustment between 0–1500 lumens, enabling precise exposure balance without harsh hotspots. A built-in focus assist strobe—with auto-off functionality—greatly improves camera focus performance in low-light underwater environments.
Port compatibility is seamless: it features an M52×0.75 screw mount that allows direct attachment to weefine housings like the WFH-TGS without additional adapters. This plug‑and‑play design minimizes complexity, saving setup time and reducing bulk.
Constructed of robust materials (polycarbonate body and acrylic pane), rated to 60 m depth, and weighing just 271 g on land (110 g underwater), it supports dive sessions with minimal buoyancy requirements.
Main Features of the Weefine Ring Light 1500
- 1500 lumens continuous brightness (CRI 80, CCT 5700 K) — clean, shadow‑free light for macro shooting
- 1800 lumens manual strobe mode — flash trigger syncs with camera, fully manually adjustable
- Seemless dimming knob—smooth, stepless brightness control knob, allows ultra-fine brightness control
- Focus assist function with auto-off — helps camera focus, then dims to save battery
- M52×0.75 screw mount — fits any standard M52 mount
- Long battery life — ~85 minutes at full brightness; recharges in ~2 hours via USB‑C
- Compact & rugged design — polycarbonate with acrylic lens, 60 m depth-rated
- Light-weight — 271 g on land; neutral buoyancy underwater (110 g), keeping rig stable
Benefits of the Weefine Ring Light 1500
- Optimized Macro Imaging: Eliminates shadows and hotspots, enhancing detail capture during underwater macro photography.
- Precision Light Control: Dimming knob and manual strobe let users fine-tune brightness beyond camera TTL limitations.
- Efficient Workflow: Focus-assist strobe simplifies autofocus in dim dive environments.
- Minimal Setup Complexity: No stepping rings or adapters needed with Olympus Tough housings.
- Extended Dive Sessions: Battery lasts over an hour at full power; quick recharge ensures readiness between dives.
- Robust & Compact Form: Marine-rated housing withstands deep dives while maintaining compactness for travel divers.
Weefine Smart Housing
The light integrates seamlessly into Weefine’s broader underwater lighting and housing ecosystem. Pair it with Weefine smart housing, which includes control ports for lights and strobes, creating a cohesive dive rig.
Weefine Ring Light 3000 Comparison
The Ring Light 3000 delivers 1800 lumens continuous + 3000 lumens strobe in red & white modes, beams 100m depth-rated housing, and five color modes (white/blue/red/auto/multicolour). However, it is heavier (410 g) and drains quicker (70 min full power). The lighter, more compact Ring Light 1500 is ideal for macro divers valuing simplicity and portability
Weefine Strobe Compatibility
Use the Ring Light 1500 to focus and preview lighting, then fire larger weefine strobe units for final shots, creating a hybrid lighting approach that balances constant and strobe lighting for richer exposures.
