Big crossover in my life is sewing lamps (proper ones with adjustable Kelvin and bendy necks) and photography lighting. In Couture work we used the invention of lcd as a way to make our studios brighter than the surface of the sun, so to set up for macro I just need to lean over slightly and rearrange the heads.
Fascinating stuff as you guide us through your thought process with complete openness about the success or otherwise of each approach. Sorry the card had no response. Fingers crossed for the next one...
Hi Andrew. Nice video. I am not a big fan of Adaptalux. It is a very expensive product and I think you get too little for your money. But that is of course my personal opinion. I did start working with colored light. For now only two colors or better said one color and one white light. Until the next video.
The Adaptalux kit is certainly very specialised. What it does very well is allow very precise positioning of multiple lights in a very small area and for that, it has no rival. Yes, it is expensive, but by the same token, quality studio lighting is too. We have become used to the low cost of smaller LED lights over recent years, but if you look at pro-grade kit, the costs are still high. I was working with coloured gels in studio shoots for magazine covers over 30 years ago when we required snoots and all kinds of modifiers to get the kind of look from probably a five head flash set up in a huge space that I can now do on my dining table.
As always, enjoyed the video. That last shot seriously does look like a whale fin. Very cool! Thanks, Andy

There are some knock backs that I can't keep subjecting myself to.
Good Insights. Thanks Andrew
Glad it was helpful!
I like the one with the thingy ( can't remember the name lol ) on the plate, great video.
Spike ;-)

Ben there! Might have another go.
Always worth it.
I'm impatient too.
