Good info. I agree. Choose your settings and adjust your shutter speed for background darkness. I'm new but this is what i'm working on now. You are 1000% correct.
Excellent tutorial. The person behind the camera did a great job...kept it straight, bit needs a bit more practice and some guidance from you...😊 Thank you very much for your time and effort.
Your explaination for dark background, has to be the best ive seen so far, everyone else makes it more difficult than it really is. So thank you may the Lord Bless you for your kindness.
Hi Ed, great information. Iam just confused, if we try to make the screen dark with flash, then how to do we ensure focus via the lcd monitor or we can use only the view finder.. Regret if this sounds dump
Thanks for the info, I have question, when I'm changing the shutter speed to underexpose the subject, I cannot see the subject in viewfinder and focusing is difficult, is there any trick for this issue?
Use a non-moving subject. Have the camera on a tripod and focus. THEN change your settings. If you have a flighty subject, command it to Sit! and STAY! - IOW, be the master of your universe. BTW - try using Live View to see your subject, and focus manually.
With a larger subject, like a portrait, you'd want to use a larger softbox of at least 24"x24" and preferably with a grid if you'd like to prevent light spilling onto the background. Alternatively, for that portrait, move the subject and light farther away from the background.
I drive stick. One of the best things about having a vehicle which is stick-shifted, is that the stick shift is a THEFT DETERRENT. Guaranteed few thugs these days can drive it!

Thank you for a great explanation and excellent examples 😀
Thanks Ed for showing me how to do those photos you’re so amazing. I just bought Godox v860iii Nikon
Excellent Tutorial again, Ed. Loving this series.
Thanks, Ed. Informative explanation. GREAT sample photos with the detailed data to demonstrate the theory. Excellent instruction.
thank you, macro is so nice, will definitely try this

Thank you very much for your time and effort.
LOL! Yes, my mistake. My direction was, "I want lots of movement!"
I'm glad I came across your video. I was planning on staying awake till midnight to take a photo. Ha. Subscribed thanks

Thank you Ed! I also like to change metering modes when doing these kind of shots.
Thanks, Lonnie!
Great info, thanks!
nice video thanks but you didnt show any black background after the start up

Thank you for the tutorial! I’m curious how you took a crisp photo at 1/15 shutter speed? This was the red flower around the end of the video

What metering mode do you use for these types of photos?
Thanks Ed. Always enjoy and learn from your videos. Q: Did you use the same small Vello mini softbox for the photo of the model?
With a larger subject, like a portrait, you'd want to use a larger softbox of at least 24"x24" and preferably with a grid if you'd like to prevent light spilling onto the background. Alternatively, for that portrait, move the subject and light farther away from the background.
Muchas gracias.
