Good light bar for Studio Display XDR

[Zubba]

Anyone have recommendations on a good light bar for the Studio Display XDR? One that doesn't block the camera.

The BenQ Screen Bar Halo 2 can be mounted on top without blocking the camera.

I've been using the BenQ on my iMac for several years. It is a solid product and performs perfectly. Very flexible in terms of light intensity and color balance. Highly recommended.

Another vote for the BenQ models.

I also have a BenQ Halo light bar (not the Halo 2) and it didn't obstruct the camera on my 2022 Studio Display when I was using it as my main display.

Seems like a strong consensus. I'll order one. Thanks, everyone.

If you want to save almost $100, you can still get the original Benq Screen Bar LED Light for $109. I've had that model since 2018 and it works great.

You will have to mount the bar slightly off center to keep from covering the web cam on the Apple Studio Display, but only by maybe half an inch. I'm not sure how the later model Benq light bars get around this, as the webcam on the Studio Display is so close to the top edge of the display.

From all the comments I've read about the later models, I think I would still buy this original model vs. the "Halo" models.
