Hello and happy Springtime to all! :oldfogette: This is a question especially for those who have any knowledge of lights and Zooming and such. I hope to buy some sort of personal conference lighting for my son for his upcoming 31st birthday. However, I have no experience whatsoever with this sort of thing, and would appreciate any opinions or guidance on what to look for, or what to avoid. Here are three that I've been looking at on Amazon:
This one has a clip and can be attached directly to a laptop screen or phone:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08MF86W4V/?co...75KFOAHJQO&colid=TR0USKLXH6N7&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it

This one comes with a small tripod stand:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08GHFC2Y7/?co...8U9CG521Z0&colid=TR0USKLXH6N7&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it

Is there something better about a ring light instead?

There are constant ads on YouTube for this "Lume Cube" brand, but I'm not seriously considering it because it costs quite a bit more. Unless there are qualities that make it worth almost twice the money? I don't particularly like the idea of a suction cup attachment, but then again, I've never used anything like these things. https://www.amazon.com/Conference-Lighti...ZYWVIHZ9M7&dchild=1&keywords=video+conference+lighting+lume+cube&qid=1617494757&s=electronics&sprefix=video+conference+lighting+lume%2Celectronics%2C157&sr=1-1
Thanks so much for your time, and for any advice!
