- Ease of setup for one-person booths and livestreams.
Top Picks
- Kit A: Best color accuracy and battery life for long markets.
- Kit B: Best portability and quick-mount options for stalls.

Good lighting makes products pop both in-person and on-screen, increasing conversion at markets and online in 2026.
