    That 130 white umbrella is looking like my next go to modifier.

    I work with social photography (weddings and birthdays) and studio photography (family, portraits, ballerinas). In my studio and in the external photos at the moment I only use Softboxes (QR P90 among other Godox modifiers (square and rectangular) attached to the Sk400, Ad400, Ad200 pro, V860 and VL1 flashes. But I intend to use a 105cm white reflector umbrella both in the studio and outdoors.

    Last 1 year i was using the Godox 120cm softbox umbrellas to light me ( subject) while shooting my youtube videos interior in my small 10/10 bedroom home studio. But now i hv switched to 80cm so that tye size suits my room and i use it with a godox sl60w light to light to light the subject(me) and do product shoots.
    Even recently made a video on it on my youtube channel 😊.

    The 165cm umbrella is my go to because I love to always have a soft look for my portraits and you can never go wrong with the 165cm umbrella

    The 130cm is the perfect sweet spot for me, flexible with looks and still relatively portable. Main use is for outdoor portrait shoots. I would love to try the AD300 in combination with the 165cm, sounds like a winner

    Definitely the 105 white is my go to umbrella. I use it with diffusion for editorial portraits on location. Its perfect for travelling and produces an incredible quality of light. I have various other sizes but almost always grab the 105.

In my studio I use several of your bigger softboxes, silver with double diffusers for soft portraits. Thanks for the clear explanations on how and what to use. Love your products and have purchased only Godox flashes, lights and ledlights over the past years. No complaints, keep up the innovative products for a reasonable price!

    I use the 88-inch wing umbrella for both indoor and outdoor portraits. A very versatile tool since it can be used as a bounce or shoot-through. And you can even use the backing as a flag in either the tall or wide configuration. And speaking of tall or wide, you can shoot through horizontally if you have a low ceiling indoors or if you need to light a large group or large area.

    @danielzurakowski6358 3 роки тому

    My go to umbrella is 165 with a white interior and I do often (actually most of the time) uśe it with a diffuser. It's an amazingly versatile light modifier - I used it for corporate head shots, half as well as full body portraits and for large products photography. Using it with or without the diffuser, adjustingi the depth of the light placing insinde the umbrella - there's so much you can with that modifier to affect the light quality, that with the addition of being so compact when closed and packed and so lightweight, that 165cm white interior umbrella + diffuser is a number one light modifier for me! :)

  • @jlwilliams
    @jlwilliams 3 роки тому +4

    Thank you for providing this concise and useful info. The umbrella I use most is the white 85cm for environmental portraits. For this type of photo, I let the ambient light provide most of the illumination; the umbrella light adds just enough to help the subject stand out from the background. The small size of the 85cm umbrella is good because it doesn't run into furniture or knock things over!

  • @6sixesGH
    @6sixesGH 3 роки тому +2

    85cm white is currently my go-to umbrella because of the size and my hot shoe flash. Recently got the AD600 so trying the 165cm white would be quite fancy and good for large group shots.

    My go to in size is the 105 and the silver interior for food photography. It gives me a natural light feel which is usually preferred by my clients and for those who want contrast shots, I can do that with just the silver interior.

I have decided that the 178cm octagonal soft box would be my go to umbrella. Already have 47in strip box which is is always my supporting light modifier to hi light my subjects hair, and to create separation from my background.

I have 85cm translucent and reflective ones pair with my Ad400pro. I use reflective umbrella for soft skin like female models and translucent for male model. Sometime I alter as per my need. Other example, translucent umbrella for key and reflective for cut light/ hair light. We can use umbrella as a reflector (second source, flash power off mode)

    I usually go with a 65”, white interior, reflective umbrella for shooting portraits. I find that this size is very versatile and can be modified by its positioning and distance quite easily. It is also great for doing environmental shots, as it can be placed a bit further away to allow for more even illumination of background and subject without loosing softness as would with something smaller; also will fit in most places unlike a 7ft one.

    65inch silver deep umbrella w/diffuser. Envelopes the model and removes hard shadows but still gives nice specular highlights. Would use it up to full body but has the most interesting effect close to the model, wouldn't say it's my go to but would say it gets used a lot.

    I am using 105cm white umbrella with diffuser. But I prefer to use my first godox octabox 80cm and grid with godox ad-200. (My first godox flash. In fact I am the first user of godox flash in India before launching in India and nobody knew godox name.) Now I am proud owner of AD-600B, 2 units Ad-200, Ad300 pro and godox V1 N. I am using all these units for wedding and product photography. All these are working flawlessly and never failed. Only my X1N has developed a minor problem. It's power switch is not working. Since I brought it from china, the local service center in Mumbai refused to service the unit. It is very disappointing experience from godox service. So I have to purchase another transmitter unit. Anyway the godox products are excellent in quality and very reliable. I am sure you will introduce great products in future also. I am planning to purchase ML-60 bicolor which is recently launched.. Unfortunately at present it is not available in India. Best wishes to all Godox team.
