HELLO, I'M FROM BRAZIL AND I REALLY LIKE YOUR VIDEOS, WHICH ARE TRULY PHOTOGRAPHY CLASSES, I'VE FOLLOWED YOU FOR A LONG TIME. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING THE TECHNIQUES.
Thank you very much!
I liked how the bright spots on the glass and bottle became softer with the filter material used between the side light and the subject.
Thanks for watching.

Great video ! As if someone is sitting on a porch enjoying the sunset. I love the ambiance of this photo ! 🧡
Glad you enjoyed it
Your videos are exceptional. I photograph (almost exclusively) birds, so fast shutter speeds, high burst rates, etc with no supplemental lighting. I've never done done studio photography and, in fact, have never been in a proper photography studio. Yet, I'm going through all your videos with keen interest. I'm going to buy myself a speedlight and wireless trigger for Christmas! Then, I suppose, I'll watch your videos again!
Thanks for your story, it’s always good to hear about other people’s experience. Thank you for watching.

Hi, these videos are great! What was the flash power you used for the main light? Thank you for being so helpful!
Flash is measured in energy, not power and the exact value is irrelevant. It will depend on the energy available in the lighting unit, the efficiency of any modifier used distance, etc.. The flash unit I used had a maximum energy of 500 J and was set to an energy level of 5 out of 10 which equates to about 16 J. About the same as a small speed light flash. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching.
Hello, I follow you for many years and I’m wondered if you can prepare a video to simulate a light come from a window
Yes I have a plan to do just that, and also just using the light from a window.
Thank you for watching.
Merhaba..Stil life çalışmaları yapıyorum..fakat ev ortamındayım..Öyle sizin gibi ekipmanlarım yok..İşıklara ve .Arka plana çok dikkat etmekteyim..Güzel önerileriniz için teşekkür ediyorum...
Glad you like it.
What camera software is used for the tether?
I use Capture One software.
What was the filter used in the background lighting?
I used a Lee 019 gel filter.
Thanks for watching.
what a pity, a Sinar P2 in the background, and he goes for a dslr 😞 when that P2 would have been perfect for this shot!!!!! (PS the S in sinar stands for Studio, exactly where you are at!!!). also using the Sinar P2 you could have improved that shot, by adding an angle, aka a receding plane, and do selective focus (tilt\shift\swing) to make the subject shine.
Unfortunately very few people these days even know what a P2 is let alone know how to use it. I try to make my demonstrations accessible. Perhaps some time in the future I will do a video with the Sinar.
Thanks for your comment, all comments help grow my channel.
Thanks for watching.
@@CameraClubLive yes, what a shame all those skills and knowledge are not as prevalent any more; but you still can show it, just add a Fuji GFX via an adaptor on the back, like a cambo actus system, but on steroids, or even some dslr's , just need the right adaptor, then you can use it digitally. but Yes, we do need some more 'how to's' on this stuff, as the more stuff out there, the more confident people are in using film, and hence the bigger cameras.
@@CameraClubLive no worries, but as some feedback, if you could explain how to do it, brand agnostic, so the flash setup can be done by anyone, whether using a film slr, MF camera, or dslr \mirrorless as you have done, as some of it, perhaps by necessity was " edited" in, setup beforehand, like assembling the softboxes and lights, great you showed us how to adjust them to the shot; but if we are using film, Negative, or slide, how does it change how we meter for it, ie: do we meter shadows rather than highlights?
et un très bon vin... thanks Sir
