New LED ring for digital camera

 It's a very flat even light being offered which picks up the details admirably.

Go into settings and change the colour balance setting from "Auto" to tungsten or similar.  Play with the available options to get rid of the bluish hue caused by the LED lighting.

I think you will find the LED's are "cool white" and that's the reason for the blue/violet output. High lux warm or white LED's would be better and, as suggested, a diffuser would help and it needs to be opaque white and not clear crystal type diffuser.

Take a look at the test output photos of the watchmaker camera I've made, the movement photo is taken in my dining room that has warm white LED's and without any extra LED lighting. If I were to use an LED lamp to aid the camera directly, I would opt for daylight LED's, something around 4500 lumens.
