Omar your daughter is both patient and gorgeous. She obviously has inherited your sense of humour and fortunately her mothers looks.😁. Yeah you are a good looking guy as well. Such clarity in your info thanks.
With their new 10K lumen model and a fresnel lens, you can overpower the sun. This makes the complication of flash a thing of the past for many types of shots, especially for weddings where you often need light for both photography and video.
This was great. My takeaway is that flashes/strobes reward preparation and practice whereas this is better for situations where lower light can exploit its "live view" advantage. If/when I cajole my kid to be in front of a camera like that while I futz around, I wind up with tons of pictures of her looking at her phone.
Ya I think I'm going to do this but I do so little portrait that I can't be bothered learning my flash. I do like the idea of doing continuous light over flash.
Hi Omar, just wanted to thank you for making this video. I have the same portrait kit and wanted help. You answer a lot of my questions and now I have a better understanding of the kit I have. I currently used the outdated Nikon D70 and need to do indoor and outdoor.
Thanks for the video, as always very informative and nice. Your daughter is gorgeous! Very nice photos... I am just starting out with flash photography so probably i ll wait a bit with a purchase... And watch your other two vids, which i did not know before.
the Phottix 16 inch multi boom will solve your articulating issue ...I use the Westcott version of the umbrella reflector and it was a game changer...it requires their Varos Umbrella holder (or one similar)...but is was well worth the investment...the umbrella holder is the best I've ever used...peace
What light are you using as a backlight w/ barn doors at 7:15m ?? At first, I thought you said flashlight and thought oh that's great for my budget lol... maybe a powerful LED flashlight with some diffusion help could work as a backlight?
Kindly make more videos on constant LED light portrait photography with camera settings. We all would love to see it.... Nowadays LED lights are in vogue.... Please do more videos 🙏
they have anew 10000 lumen version. How do you feel about it for video compared to a 120/300d from apurture. did you try it in any modifiers like an octa and how did it do.
Continuous light is great if you're shooting inside the couple's room in a hotel which is usually small, the hotel's hallway. Where you don't have the luxury of time to fiddle with your flash. You are in and out of the room and off you go to the church.
Hi Omar or anyone how can give me some feedback. I was wondering how well can we control this light to use inside dark venues to do couples portraits. Can we focus the light in order to avoid light spill? Can we use modifiers to shape the light, for example, have a beam in portrait or landscape position? Thanks
hi this video was just what I was looking for, although my question is, I wanna do exactly the types of photos you did with sony, close portraits, can a 100W 11000 LM portable led light help me on that? I have seen some models on amazon with battery and bowens mount thanks
Hi, Omar! In Russia,photographers have been using such lighting devices for a long time. Enterprising Chinese began to make similar illuminators on LEDs a few years ago. And on such illuminators you can set the desired color temperature (daylight, or artificial light). Usually these illuminators use videographers, but for photography in certain moments the same will come down)))
Hi Folks do you think this could be used for product photography, in particular wooden objects/art? Am just getting back into photography, and loving my Fuji X2, as it picks up where I left off, (lots of easy dials to play with), from my old film days.
Yessir. Any light would work for that. Decide on the quality and direction. As you saw, I used it in a large umbrella for soft results. A window, flash, or continuous lights.
Omar, heeeelp! Sometimes I try to take portraits with backlight. Here is an example of what I'm trying to achieve imgur.com/zBShHxs To preserve the highlights I get the subject completely dark, obviously, but I can recover it in post. The problem is, if I want a very shallow depth of field, AF is crucial. Sometimes I still get it with my a7iii, like you saw in the link, but most of the times the camera just won't focus. What can I do? I'm just taking my wife photos, I don't want to use speedlights nor strobes, but... maybe if I use just a trigger, like Godox X2T? Can I use just its AF assist? Will it help? If you can't reply in a comment I hope you'll talk about it in a video^^

😂😂
I would love some Omar positivity to start every day! Cheers for another video fella
Instructures. Love you guys.
Love how you described it instead of saying it 😂😂😂
Glad to see someone is actually doing actual shoots with LED lights.
Your model was awesome. Made your work stand out even more. Definitely a keeper.
The reflected light adds so much faux dynamic range that it starts to look medium format. This is very cool.
you've got a beautiful model :)
Your model was beyond amazing.. especially with her cute expressions.😍
Nice video, best model ever! 👍🏻❤

Such a really great video!!! Please do more on lighting!!
Another great video! Your channel keeps growing 🌟🌟🌟🌟 I remember when I followed you, you had 3K something! Blessings to you always brother!!!!
So nice of you man. I appreciate it!!

Thank u so much for the recommendation. Your daughter is cute and funny 😂
thank you! this was really helpful. i am a hybrid shooter and this was a really good video
Good afternoon, what fixes the fresnel on the LED, I bought a used one but it doesn't stay stuck, is there any extra accessory?
What a GREAT model!
Next time you do something about entry level and beginner gear you should do the modelling and have your daughter and/or son do the photography :)
Second
Haha. They would love it.
Thanks for the video, as always very informative and nice. Your daughter is gorgeous! Very nice photos...

Or bring in a big light like a Aputure 300D with battery for full body shots..
Which batteries do you use?
great demo video! thank you!
Great video. Been mostly using strobes outside, but am willing to give continuous lighting a try. Would you recommend these Stella light?
they have anew 10000 lumen version. How do you feel about it for video compared to a 120/300d from apurture. did you try it in any modifiers like an octa and how did it do.
Is it Omar Photography the funniest UA-cam channel about photography? I don't know. Let's subscribe and find out
Aw adorable!
Which is better Aputure 120dii Vs Stella Pro??
Continuous light is great if you're shooting inside the couple's room in a hotel which is usually small, the hotel's hallway. Where you don't have the luxury of time to fiddle with your flash. You are in and out of the room and off you go to the church.
I just heard of these. Hope your review is a positive one
I hope you paid your professional model. She was a great sport!

Conclusion: still not worth it 😂
Or "continue using flash" love you Omar, you're the best
nice video, one question how this light compares to Rotolight continuous lights (aeos/Anova pro 2) ?

@@ogonzilla thank you,!

Better get an agent for that professional model. She's gonna be in high demand.
Clearly they aren't a match to the power of strobe. Not for me. Great video though.
