So goes the last studio lighting class I took with Gil Digden. It was a lot of fun. Mostly I think that was because I connected with several of the others in the class, and we got along well.<\/p>\n

\"Shooting<\/a>\u00ac\u2020<\/p>\n

Rich is the photographer, using an alien bees ring light. I wasn’t sure I would like it when we started, but I\u00ac\u2020 do now. The dang things are expensive, unweildy, you have to mount your camera to them, and can’t hand hold, but the light has been great for our more environmental type shots. It has worked great with the elevator.<\/p>\n

\"Sam1\"<\/a>\u00ac\u2020<\/p>\n

So after touting the bees, these were taken with no flash. They are not tack sharp, I was down\u00ac\u2020around 1\/15 sec territory with a 50mm lens.\u00ac\u2020I like them though, but can’t decide which one I like better.<\/p>\n

The next thing todo is decide\u00ac\u2020on and actually purchase lights. It is tough, because Gil has a bias toward the big lights, and doesn’t think much of speedlights. He pretty much sold the whole class on getting Photogenics strobes. I am not sold. If I get strobes, I will get\u00ac\u2020Alien Bee’s lights. Lots of professionals better than I are using them.<\/p>\n

I want to make some Big Light with Small Flashes<\/a>\u00ac\u2020before I move to the big guns. Joe McNally and David Hobby<\/a> make some killer shots with speedlights.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
