- In this video I'm going to make a simple still life using only one affordable speedlight and very simple other equipment.

Hi, I like it the light is fantastic and the setup is easy, to do it. thank you
Glad you like it! Thanks for watching.
Enjoyed this,and have done something similar after i watched your video.It's a change to watch a video when you don't have to spend a fortune on equipment.Thank you.Will follow more of your videos.
Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it.
Good stuff, I recently get myself an newer octobox umbrella, and a youngnou yn560tx controller and I did not have any idea of how to get started on speedlite photography, thanks for the tips
Thank you.
very nice
Thanks.
nice set up! Thanks from me for that, just starting with still lifes
Thanks.
The picture is totally cool :D I was like "woow" before you started editing!
Thanks! Did I do something wrong with my edit, if you were like "woow" before it?😀
@@mattisulanto haha noo absolutely not, after editing it was multiple woow 😀 you do great job, inspirative!
awesome shirt : )
makes me hungry the photograph looks very good
Thanks!😀
Fantastic, sulantoblog, but may I suggest a change of wallpaper?
Honestly, the result was fantastic.
Thank you so much😀
Thanks a lot! Great video with pretty handy information provided with plain and literate language. Subscribe.
Thanks for the sub!
Cool -- the final photo looks very much like a late Renaissance still life by one of the masters, great light/color. And not a crazy and complex process -- thank you for the tutorial. But what is your recipe for your dish with the onions and garlic??? :-)
Thanks! No special recipe, this time I made a simple pasta dish with tomato, garlic and onion.
Nice tutorial. But why did you need the flash, when there was so much sunlight coming in from the window and from the same direction?
Thanks. One reason to use a flash is to get the light you want and the light that stays constant as long as you want.
First, thanks for the video! Let´s me just ask if in place a umbrella I use a softbox, I believe there´s no such difference in the results or am I wrong?
Thanks. You can use a soft box as well and with this kind of subject the outcome is very similar.
I think the photo of awesome. Would you mind if I painted it in oil?
Thanks. Go for it, but let me see the result, if you do it😀
It's ok, It would be better if you lowered the light source and moved it closer, adjusted the White balance to the warmer side, and adjusted the exposure so the highlights were down, to limit the Blown out parts of the image. Good video to learn from.
Thanks for your tips. You sound like a true expert in studio photography. Please post a link for your online portfolio so I can learn more from you.
Nice idea..maybe an old knife in the foreground can round up the whole scene a little bit..?
Yeah, a knife would have been good.
A nice image and kept simple, always a good model. I’d like to have seen the scales on the window sill as part of the prop. Nice work though.
Thanks. You can make your own version😀
I guess Im asking the wrong place but does any of you know a tool to log back into an Instagram account??
I was dumb lost the password. I would love any assistance you can give me
@Aryan Ty instablaster ;)
@Landen Dominick i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff now.
I see it takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.
@Landen Dominick it did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thanks so much, you really help me out !
Nice image, i noticed you had your speedlight in front of the window. How much effect would the window light have had on the image?
Thanks! The ambient light was several stops below the flash and therefore had no effect.
@@mattisulanto Thank you thats very helpful. Getting your head around speedlights can be complex and you've made it seem quite easy !
Hi. Great video. What software do you use to adjust the color tone?
Thanks. Lightroom is my choice.
Good video, can you please make a specific video on shutter speed with the G9.
Thanks! I don't understand you request. What do you mean by "shutter speed with the G9"?
@@mattisulanto I would like to control the SS, I like to use vintage lenses, and I was not able to set it to a specific speed range, like I could on my old SLR.
@@mindseyeproductions8798 I'm not still sure if I understand. Put your camera on Manual mode and you choose any shutter speed, or use the S mode, if you want auto exposure.
beautiful...I am wondering how come you used flash when you are using natural light as well
Thanks! The light coming from the window can change and be unpredictable, but the flash is constant. In this one I used flash, because I wanted to show how make the picture.
@@mattisulanto it's been a while since I used my camera, I am going to get onions and garlic tomorrow../Thank you for your reply. I was hoping you have some more on lighting but you don't =(
@@thatsalligot2say I have a couple of videos on lighting, but my office is so small, that it's hard to make lighting videos. But I'll try to figure out something.
What make/model trigger do you use for the flash?
Yongnuo 560III
Kiitos Matti videosta! Sun videoita on miellyttävä katsoa. :) Hankin muutama viikko sitten G9 kitin ja haluaisin kysyä mielipidettäsi 12-60mm linssistä. Olisiko sinuun mahdollista ottaa yhtyettä sähköpostilla tai jotain muuta kautta?
Kiitos. Mulla on video siitä objektiivista, jos selaat kanavaa hieman. Lähetä viesti sulantoblogin facebook-sivun kautta. En voi kovin pitkiin henkilökohtaisiin konsultointeihin mennä, koska aika ei riitä, mutta toki vastaan jotain.
@@mattisulanto Kiitos! Laitoin hyvin lyhyen kysymyksen. :)
It's so hard to do away with preconceived notions, I wouldn't have though to combine the flash and natural light that way.
Thanks.
@@mattisulanto No, thank you!
But what about the beautifull windowlight you had? Very tasty photo by the way :)
Thanks! This time I decided to use flash. Maybe I'll use the window light for another photo some day😀
The zoom setting of the flash is at 105mm? What distance from the flash from umbrella? Thanks in advance!
The flash setting could have been 105mm, but I'm not sure any more. The flash was about maybe 40cm from the umbrella and the umbrella maybe 50cm from the subject. I made the video nine months ago, so I don't remember the exact settings any more😀I'm sorry.
@@mattisulanto Thanks and keep posting! Helps a lot!!!
Mukava yksinkertainen setup mitään kommervenkkejä, joskus näinkin - kiitokset. Pari huomiota: se mikä jäi kertomatta oli sipulien etäisyys taustakankaasta; onko merkitystä(?) Et pimentänyt ikkunaa, koska aika oli lyhyt muutenkin (tätä juttua olisit voinut vähän avata lisää).
Kiitos palautteesta ja olisin voinut tosiaan tekniikasta sanoa pari sanaa enemmän.
Is the speedlight on the umbrella diffused?
It's diffused with the umbrella.
@@mattisulanto Nice Video, thank you
It's a shame you can't use strobe lighting in high-resolution mode, like you can with Olympus and Sony.
pov ur art teacher made u watch this
I'm sorry, but who is the teacher and who watched what?😀
Hi, what was the light power?
At 2:59 it looks like it's 1/4 of the full power. However, it doesn't really tell you much unless you have EXACTLY the same set up. You have to adjust the flash power for your set up, which is probably not exactly like mine.
@@mattisulanto Thanks. Would a magmod defuser work?
@@BmcN72 I don't know what that is. The diffuser has to be big enough (diameter about 60cm min.) and far enough (40cm min.) from the flash.
what was your ISO?
Please, watch the video at around 3:17😀
Was that a flash on camera? Or did you use flash in hand?
I'm sorry, but don't want to explain it here again, because it's all in the video.
@@mattisulanto I apologize, I missed it first time.
