hallo, very nice tuto and setup easy to travel with !
what is the diameter of the umbrella and reference ? i am using d300 +
2xsb900
I think 4 sb900 would be more expensive than a rx400 elinchron ! perhaps
photix are cheaper…
best regards

I’ve been taking photos since the mid/late 70’s with formal training and I
have never seen light positioning explained so simply. Why didn’t anyone
think of this before? Thanks for this video and now I need to find the
subscribe button!
Sorry, but this is a bunch of non-information. It doesn’t tell you where
you should place a light, just gives names to different positions. How
does this tell me how to light a subject? It tells you NOTHING about how
to produce the most flattering highlights and shadows, or produce Good
Light, as the title suggests. It doesn’t mention short lighting, broad
lighting, Rembrandt lighting, butterfly lighting, etc. It doesn’t explain
a system, just gives names to positions in a circle. And the fact that he
doesn’t use a lens shade on his lens, while an umbrellas is shining right
into it, indicates he doesn’t care (or know) about flare in his pictures.
Not professional.
Hi Michael 🙂
At first I have to confess, that your face remind me of my old not-so-liked
by me buddy, so this has a huge negative impact on your tutorials, yeah, I
know, I’m sick bastard 🙂
But! Your tutorials ara amazingly easy to understand, you know how to teach
with simply words 🙂 Keep the good work and have a good light to you :)
The “clock” idea it’s amazing, you earned a subscriber.

With all that talk would be nice to be a little beam light on model hair to
separate her black hair from sold black background.
good vid, but sadly, no camera settings were mentioned
My Favorite instructor by far!
Excellent!

using and the pros and cons of using each ‘end’ of the lens?
