question i tried to do this the other day but with the new A9iii and when i put on the sony fj trigger my live view goes away and does this crazy grainy view on my screen but when i press my button to see what my shot looks like its clear but when i look at my screen it so grainy looking ...its like something makes my live view go like its on 51000iso but my setting is at iso will be 250 or 400 in my studio ....so i dont know why my screen goes all grain looking ...any ideas what can make this happen
Hmmmm. I’d call customer service.
Hello brother can I do this with a godox ad200 pro????
I’ve never used Godox but I’m sure you can
How do you get the pictures on the laptop right away..and is this possible with Nikon?
I'd like to know as well. ...and what software do you use to view your results?
Thanks
I shoot with Nikon, I use my iPad and the cascable app with a cable or wifi. You can also connect it directly to Lightroom classic with your laptop
I shoot with Sony, so you can’t shoot to Lightroom I don’t think. There might be a workaround, but I don’t use it. I tether with a tether tools cable from my camera to my laptop, and use Capture One.
Capture One
@@MattHernandez did you use capture one for Nikon?
Hey Matt, hoping you can help me as I am trying to emulate this exact picture. I am new to OCF. I have two FJ400. I don’t have a black backdrop so I know it won’t be as good, but I have the ambient light fairly dark at 1/200, f9-f11, ISO 100. I have a softbox set up pointing down like you do. I have a deep focus reflector on the light in the back shoulder height. The only difference is I have a blue flexigel on the light. Key light is at 5 and back light I have tried between 7 and 9. The back light gives off some blue when nobody is in front of it but as soon as I put someone in front of it you don’t see the blue at all. Do I need the light a little higher to get over the persons back? Do I need to do something different since it is a flexigel? I have tried it without any reflector on and with both the 15 and 30 honeycomb grid. Better with those grids on or off? Any guidance you can provide would be much appreciated!
EDIT: I realized you did not have a deep focus reflector on so I took that off and am getting blue now. However, the blue I am getting is a much lighter blue. Can I achieve the look you had with flexigels or do I need to use something more similar to what you used?
The more you turn down the light the more saturated the color will be! Are you using any kind of atmosphere to help spread out the blue? That’s a big part of it. You need to watch the other video I have dedicated to the flexigels I think that might help!
Flexi Gels vs Normal Gels

@@MattHernandez I had not yet added fog. That was the next step, but even before you added fog you still had some decent blue color. I’ve looked into getting a black backdrop and that should help. I had previously watched your flexi gels video but thanks for linking me back to that as it has been a little while. I’ll rewatch.
Could you use an off camera flash instead of a strobe for the background light or is it not strong enough?
A strobe is an off camera flash haha. Do you mean a speed light maybe? If so, yes you absolutely could!
Where did you get the backdrop?
Right here! amzn.to/3V09RZp
Where do you purchase the colored gels from, like the one you used in this video?
I got them on B&H! They are ROSCO gels. Amazon has some too but Rosco is the best IMO.
@@MattHernandez are the colored sheets? It looks like they are but not sure.
Good stuff. Thoughts on the canned fog vs a handheld glycerin fogger? Does the canned fog leave any residue if used heavily in one spot? Probably wouldn't be allowed back into the gym if a big slippery spot was left...?
Oh yeah it definitely does. I always put a towel down!
Always appreciate your videos. I’ve just started my journey with sports photos last year and videos and tips like this have been a tremendous time saver. Already have a bunch of FJ400s and XDrop Pros because of videos like yours and James Quantz. Thanks!!
That’s awesome! Thanks for taking the time to say that. Yeah James Quantz is the man! Great guy and extremely talented.
This video was so helpful. Just curious, would you you place your main light any differently for baseball caps?
That’s great thanks for letting me know! Yes if the shadow was over their eyes.
Thanks Matt! Great video as always. I don't have a beauty dish but notice you use one a lot. Guess I need to start saving for one. Going to try with my Westcott Rapid box Octa S.
You should! Thanks for watching!
Do you have a group setup like this
I do but I don’t have a video on it yet.
@@MattHernandez I will patiently wait
Do you find a bounce card to deflect light from underneath to be too soft for the purposes of the photo or does the fill light work better for you? BTW, great video. Love all your work. It's great to see your thought processes for different shots.
Thank you! A bounce would work well. I do use that type of fill in certain situations, but the light offers more control so more times than not I’ll go for that.
You make great videos. I didn't realize you'd get that mutch "fog" from the aerosol. I'm going to give it a go, and pray that i don't set the fire alarm off.
You shouldn’t from the atmosphere aerosol!
great tutorial. been struggling with the gel smoke. do you have a grid on your main light?
It takes some practice for sure. No I don’t.
Bro. So glad I found your channel, great tutorials
That’s awesome thank you!
I have the same cap. Glad to see you’re also a Pittsburgh Steelers fan 👍
HERE WE GO! Haha 👊🏽
Thank you ths is a great, clear demo of a cool set up !!! Love it.
Glad you liked it!
I love your videos they are very good information. Do you need or use assistants often?
Thank you! Yep, on almost every shoot!
Thanks for sharing! I enjoyed this video
Glad you enjoyed it!
Informative as always, thank you Matt!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video, thanks
Glad you liked it!
Great Video!
Thanks!
Brilliant as usual!
Thank you!
Love it!!
Thank you!!
So awesome!
Thank you!
I really enjoy you videos however, your assistant in charge of the fog showed no emotion in involvement. Like he wanted to be somewhere else.
And?
