Are ring flashes for Macro photography only?

What is a good brand to get? =):):)

They are also used for fashion/glamour shots, do a search on Flickr using the keyword "ringflash".

A popular make would be this one http://www.alienbees.com/abr800.html

Haven't been able to use one but there are some from DPP that use it.

You might want to check it out.

Sorry but what does the ring light have to do with the kind of camera she uses? I just don't get it

Probably, he is just thinking the camera brands own product and not aware of other brand makes.

Because most brands would have their own ring light for Macro photography, such as the Nikon R1C1 (Well technically its not a ring light, but if you get 8 sb-r200s) and Canon Macro twinlite ringlight.
