    Chris Knight is without a doubt the one I've learned most from on UA-cam when it comes to photographic with strobes

    Its a great instrucional video, I'm not sure what the "too much talking" comment is about, the talking/explanation is more important to understanding than simply firing off shots. Explaining the what/why/how is far more useful imho, and Chris explains it really well. Thanks! I already have (and use) a 308X, but do want to upgrade to the L858 at some point :)

    This is terrific! I love this long-form content with detailed information. Please share more long-form content like this. Chris is terrific photographer and teacher; his choice of recreating Karsh with flash strobes is terrific. Well done--I feel like I learned a few things here. It was cool to see Chris setting up a photo with just a light meter and no test shots.

    Correct me if I'm being wrong, but putting a sock on a modifier does not make the light from it softer, it makes it diffused (instead of being direct without the sock). With all due respect to Chris!

    • @SekonicGlobal
      @SekonicGlobal  3 місяці тому

      Correct, the sock diffuses the light. Therefore it will take on more qualities of softer light, but depending on the relative distance and relative size compared to the subject will dictate how much of a softening effect it has.

    hi! great video! as profoto user, to use L-858D we have to trigger like him with a second remote (like him, the one in his left hand)?

    • @SekonicGlobal
      @SekonicGlobal  3 місяці тому +1

      Yes, correct. There currently isn't an internal module to remotely fire the lights. You have to use cordless flash mode.

    f11 is a commercial zone of focus ........required to reach a usable zone of focus. FOR PRINT WORK..... Where do these teachers come from?

    • @SekonicGlobal
      @SekonicGlobal  3 місяці тому +4

      We work with some of the best commercial portrait photographers in the world, and they often choose the aperture based on the look they are going for, what they want in focus, and the lighting. One aperture definitely doesn't fit every shoot. - Ab Sesay
