    Thanks Tommy .... really helpful video 👍

    Well explained makes the tutorial very easy to understand! There is a sixth position that is possible and that is overhead lighting. Achieved by positioning the softbox overhead and parallel to the floor, maybe a little ahead of the model...

      Thank you Anamits, we are glad that you have found this video informative. Yes, that is the set up you mentioned is also a good one, to be honest, you are only limited by your imagination when it comes to positioning softboxes for portraiture.
      Thanks again for the feedback.

    Hi Tommy. An absolutely amazing and easy to understand tutorial. Thank you.... look forward to more of them. Would love to see a couple on how you use the same softbox to create a high key look or get headshots. Thinking of buying the softbox.

    Great tutorial as always. Are you letting ambient light in for the shots? I have been trying to recreate these setups but am unable to get my subjects shadow side as lit as you are able to get.... using the 90cm octa

    • @TommyReynolds89
      @TommyReynolds89 5 років тому

      No ambient is coming into these at all Johan :) try moving your soft box back a little and feather the sofbox towards the shadow side. That should fix your issue mate :)

    • @Falken207
      @Falken207 5 років тому

      Tommy Reynolds thanks, will try that as soon as I can, but guess then it depends on studio space , thanks for replying :)

    Such a great video- thanks for sharing;-)
    One important question before I buy…;-):
    Does the room you photograph in using this set up have to be completely dark (no window light) or will this artificial light work well in combination with daylight also?
    I know some LED lights work well combined with day/window light because they look very much like the natural window light. I want an artificial light I can use both in night time and in day time and where I photograph it is not possible to block out the window light - only diffuse it.
    Thanks a lot in advance,
    Susanne

      Hi Susanne.
      The beauty of flash is that you can control the exposure of the ambient light independently of the flash exposure. Since flash exposure isn't affected by shutter speed, you can use your camera's shutter speed to control the amount of ambient light that appears in the final photo. If you don't want the natural light from the window to influence your exposure, then simply use a higher shutter-speed so that the ambient light doesn't record on the sensor. The CITI600 also Support high-Speed sync which enables you to use an even higher shutter-speed if the room that you are shooting in, is very bright.
      The CITI600s are daylight balanced, so they work really well when used in combination with natural daylight, and can also be used at night time also.
      Hope that helps.

    Can I use the pixa pro softbox with the godox ad200? What are the adapters that I'll need? Thank you so much.

    • @essentialphotovideo
      @essentialphotovideo  5 років тому

      Hi Wesley. Sure you can use the PIKA200 or AD200 with any S-Type fitting softbox with our Smart Bracket (please see link below)
      www.essentialphoto.co.uk/product/pixapro-smart-speedlite-adapter-bracket-bowens-s-type-fitting/
      If you have two, you can use our Dual Pika Smart Bracket. It will also work with one

      Hope that helps

    Great tutorial. Did you change the power of the lighting for these or were they left the same?

    • @TommyReynolds89
      @TommyReynolds89 6 років тому

      Hey Matthew, I'm afraid cannot remember if the power changed between shots. If I did change it would have been my much at all :)
