I cannot thank B&H enough for making sure the audio was loud enough for people with moderate to severe hearing loss, seriously this is one of the only videos I've been able to watch so far that is actually loud enough for me to understand what's being said, major props.
I've never watched these seminar videos until lately. I discovered them in the past month or so. Within this last month I've almost become obsessed with them and I discovered many good videos and many good photographers. Or so I thought!! Nothing or no one compares with what I just watched. Informative, engaging and full of great (not silly) humor. And i don't even shoot in his genre That's whats cool - it doesn't even matter. I love this guy. So glad I discovered this video and elated that
@Monica Robinson Thank you for watching the B&H Photo UA-cam Channel and for your participation. We are very pleased that you derive value from and find our presentations useful and informative.
One of the best lectures on creativity and photography I have heard in a long time. Frank Doorhof is a true photographer that is very passionate about his craft. Highly recommended!
@kuhndog63 , @msscrz Thank you both for watching the B&H Photo UA-cam Channel and for your participation. We are very pleased that you derive value from and find our presentations useful and informative.
I really appreciate the value of the information passed on from all these FREE videos, and the time involved by all. I just do not have the money to attend workshops and the photo walks etc... And I want to say that Frank is a breath of fresh air and enjoyable to watch. He does not lay a bunch of BS on you....thanks guys...
@MiniGunas , @Subverttech4 , @angelmanzoor , @Matthew Hodges Thank you so much for watching the B&H Photo UA-cam Channel and for your feedback. We are very pleased that you derive value from and find our presentations useful and informative.
@matthiaswegger Thank you so much for watching the B&H Photo UA-cam Channel and for your feedback. We are very pleased that you derive value from and find our presentations useful and informative.
Frank, if I were to say I had a style, it would be like yours. Really great job confirming to me the way I shoot is not crazy or wrong. It's nice to see someone teaching this way....thanks
I love when a professional speaks like a normal person (that everyone is). He just leaves it on the user friendly level and yes, he made me laugh many times. This is one of the most informative videos about photography that is very funny at the same time
For me its a very inspirational vdo......I am really very amateur photographer and from this vdo i came very good things.......... i enjoyed watching the franks' presentation......
Frank, what an amazing lecture! I have watched several other video which were all good, but your presentation made an impact on how I view my surroundings. So much so that I have noticed signs, abandoned vehicles, buildings, etc., objects that I have driven by ever day for years. I shoot with my iPhone 3G primarily now, but I am looking to purchase my first DSLR soon, a D90 or D5100, I can't wait. Thanks again
When looking for soft light and smooth fall-off, one should look for an adequate size softbox used close to the subject for the least amount of falloff from the transition from "lit" to "unlit," or from "highlight" to "shadow." The size of the softbox in relation to the subject will dictate what area is lit, and the closeness controls the falloff. - Yossi
Content like this equals sales. While I was watching this, I was also in the market for a Nikon 105mm macro. I chose B&H. Luckily Nikon came along with their rebates just in time which helped close the deal. Excellent speaker and content.
Very entertaining and informative video! One of the reasons I shop B+H (in addition to their great prices and service) is to support their event center and the videos they post of the presentations
this guy is very fun to watch! The only thing I disagree on was getting a cheaper camera as long as you have a good lens. You should save up and get the camera that suits you and your needs. Certain newer models come out with features that are must for some shooters. More AF points. Quicker shutter speed and so on. For example, You own a canon 7d but love night time photography. For better iso settings and less grain your best bet is the canon mk2 or mk3 or what ever nikon with good iso.
At almost any situation you will be better off with bigger lights positioned further away. Abrupt fall off is rarely a desirable feature and even if it is - it can be achieved with flags etc. My advice: get the biggest softboxes, umbrellas, beauty dishes you can afford in terms of price, studio space and flash power. You won't be sorry.

This might be the best of these B&H talks that I’ve seen. Really insightful and appreciated his sense of humor as well.
Thank you for watching. We are all truly grateful and appreciate your patronage.
...why do you think the lighthouse was built? 53:56
That was priceless. That just changed my perspective on photography completely.
