You can never have too much information from a expert. There is still so much to learn about how to efficiently arrive at the desired effect. Greetings from Germany.
I am always fighting the reflection on glass in photos I take in my small studio. I have looked for a technique to take them out, but normally they just say to deal with it by using the erase tool. Thank you for showing us a viable option. Great video. Thank you for teaching so well.
As always great instrucions, thank you! I see the value of this technique when photographing shiny materials in movement, like flowing / splashing fluids. With still objects I would prefer to take multiple shots with different lighting (-angles) and afterwards compose to my liking.
Great video! Would this also be effective if you placed the linear polarizer on the light and placed a softbox on the light or placed a sheet of diffusion in front of the light?
The polariser on the light will only be effective if it is the last surface before the subject. You could use it in conjunction with a soft box but the filter would need to be the same size as the soft box. hope that helps. Thanks for watching.
Hello, Tony. Another educational video. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Could you make a video about creative lighting? I am thinking about working with gobos or other types of modifiers. My work consists of 85% still-life photography. And I would like to do more with that. Kind regards from the Netherlands.
Why could you not do the same with a circular polariser? What would it look like when you would attempt to use a circular polariser? I only have circular polariser filters, yet I have used them to remove reflections of my lights from glass. Which is what you are demonstrating here. So now I’m puzzled, what did I miss? In the shop where I usually buy my camera related gear, they do not even sell linear polariser filters - except for one model which is not in stock and only works with the Cokin filter system.
I think if he used a circular polarizer, it would also start removing the highlight from the overhead strobe too. He only wanted to remove the side strobe reflection so by using the linear filters on the strobe and lens to remove the reflection he was able to selectively remove the reflection lighting. At least that is what I think is happening here.
@ It depends on the angle from which the light is coming in, right? Vs the rotation of the circular polariser. The other lights were coming from another angle, so might not be affected? I might misunderstand something here. I don’t think that in the past I have tried one reflection, but not the other, with the circular polariser.
What I am demonstrating is the effect of crossed linear polarisers it’s the interaction of the polariser on the light and the polariser on the camera that causes the affect. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching.
@@CameraClubLive Thank you, yes that helps! In a moment of inattention I have missed that you put a polariser on the light -- now the rest of the video also makes more sense to me!

Greetings from Germany.
Very true! thanks for watching
Goodness! A simple technique that never crossed my mind to use. Brilliant. Thanks for this excellent tip.
Glad it was helpful!
You are so professional, Thank you for sharing this information
Thank you for watching
@@CameraClubLiveBut I am wondering why if I use a circular polarizer in front of the lens, it won't work?
This is such an incredible class in how to manage light!!
Thank you, and thanks for watching
A master class!!!
Glad you enjoyed it
excellent tutorial
Glad you liked it
Somehow I never think of using the polarizer indoors. Good idea ! Thank you 🌷
You’re welcome 😊
Very much interesting. Thanks for the information.Have a nice time..
Thanks, you too.
Very interesting and informative, Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
great session!
Thanks.
Fantastic as always, thank you Tony.
Very welcome
Interesting technique. Thanks for another great video
My pleasure!
I have used a polarizer for many a year to control reflection, and control the sky as well. It is a great filter to keep on your camera all the time.
Thanks for watching
Great teaching job, and we can see that you master the topic. Love it, thank you!

😮 and double polarization ? 😊

I saw your channel, your channel's videos are very good but your channel has a problem, what do you want to know?
Glad you like the video
