Typically when photographers think of lighting, it is usually either natural, constant, or flash light. But there are so many other ways to light an image. In this InStudio video, I explain how LED lights work and ways to get creative with photography by understanding the technology behind LED lights.

This video is a behind the scenes look at how I photographed a dancer frozen in mid air. The key to getting these photos is a strobe capable of a short flash duration. For this shoot I used an Einstein 640 WS and a Godox AD600. Both lights use IGBT to control flash duration. If you have older studio strobes without IGBT, the flash duration will be too long and you will notice motion blur in you...

    Micro 4/3 is not a sensor format. It is a lens mount format. They really are not interchangable as only the only Micro 4/3 cameraa are mirrorless.

    • @MartyKPhotography
      @MartyKPhotography 5 месяцев назад

      Actually, it is a sensor format as well as a mount format. Four Thirds as it was known originally has a sensor size approx 2x crop factor (18 mm × 13.5 mm) when compared to full frame and the sensor has a 4:3 ratio (this is where the name comes from) instead of the typical 2:3 ratio found in other systems. Micro four thirds (MFT) means it's a mirrorless system and the mount format has been adopted by numerous manufacturers like Olympus, Panasonic, and Blackmagic making the lenses interchangeable across multiple manufacturers.

      @MartyKPhotography 5 месяцев назад

      @@JacobthePoshPotato The imaging area of a Four Thirds sensor is equal to that of a video camera tube (analogue) of 4/3 inch diameter. So a Four-Thirds (4/3) digital sensor is the same imaging size as the 4/3" tube used in analogue cameras and "Micro" refers to the system being mirrorless. With MFT/Four-Thirds mount, the sensor size is defined by the standard hence a Four-Thirds sensor format.

    sorry that does not work this way for Capture One. You always end with greyish Blacks compared to C1 original profiles using the Xrite / Calibrite software. Why? Xrite does not take aware of the non standard C1 icc profiles... which include a bit of the tonal curve near Black too. Why C1 does not take care of the wrong done Xrite app... who knows... For other raw converters no problems... all others work with standard icc profiles.

    Great video. I own the a99 mark 1, 24mp and I use most of minolta´s top lenses plus several top zeiss lenses. I photograph many concerts indoor, often with artificial Light. Classical concerts make for very messy pictures ( music stands, parts of arms and instruments.....) so the I often have to crop. These crops look great (sharpness, contrast, noise etc). Nót because of the nr of pixels (or the lack thereof) but due to the lens quality.

    As a landscape photographer I’ll take all the pixels I can get. I don’t print anything less than 36x24 and larger. A D850 with a couple of Otis lenses work quite nice. I disagree with some of the comments, bill boards are not the same as gallery prints, people stand closer and can see the detail in a large print.

    What you just explained is absolutely true. I shoot with a 24 MP camera and I can print great-quality photos on 20x30-inch canvas (I am pretty sure I can go up to 40x60, but never tried; after all is still a 100 DPI print). Once just for fun, I tried to compute the resolution needed for a billboard, and including the obvious crop I determined that a 6-8MP camera would be enough for a high-quality image. Also, the space needed (especially for RAW files) and the computing power needed to process an enormous file, should be considered. And what's the point in having a 60 MP camera when the lens resolves at best about 40MP?

    I found the video very useful. It seems I have little different Capture version, but the described workflow works on ver. 22 also. The process cant be repeated with Spyder Checkr calibration card and software, at least with the one I have, but with X-Rite it works. The reason is that the Spyder does generate an icc profile. It only produces calibration files for Adobe which are not suitable for SaptureOne.

    Very useful ! Liked and subscribed ! ;) Quick question though, why do I need to create this ICC profile if I choose a standard one for processing like Adobe 98 ? Is this only to apply on the raw file, then export as a tiff adobe 98 ?

    • @MartyKPhotography
      @MartyKPhotography Год назад

      In the same way as you calibrate your monitor and/or printer, your camera is not perfect when it comes to reproducing all the colours. Creating this ICC profile is basically color calibrating your camera in the same way you would calibrate your monitor. This ensures you are starting with correct colors. Abobe98 is just a colour space (how many colors are used) and not the accuracy of the camera's interpretation of all the colors. Unlike a monitor or printer calibration which once set can be used for an extended period of time, you should use a color checker profile every time you change your lighting setup. This means you could have a number of ICC profiles per shoot depending on how much you change your lights.

    Fantastic channel mate, I am going through a lot of your videos and find them very helpful, I was linked to this video from your hard vs soft light video. Just a question - at the 5 minute mark in this video you mentioned that when photographing a group of people, you can move the light source back to create even lighting. But according to your other video, since the light source is smaller relative the group, that would also make the lighting more harsh correct? So how do you balance between the two?
