    For such "clamshell" setup i often see two other setups : a beauty dish 55cm white instead of 36" diffuser (whetever the bottom part eyelighter2, stripbox,...) and, whatever the top part, a 65cm softbox below instead of 120x30cm stripbox to make a "spot in iris" insead of a rectangle. Do you find your setup better ?

  • @PanzerIV88
    @PanzerIV88 2 года назад +1

    High quality content as always, straight to the point I love it. Question though, what about using the cheaper Speedlight for the secondary bottom light since I guess it doesn't require as much power as the key light and even less so considering the short distance?
    I've got a Godox AD400Pro which is pretty much the same flash but since I didn't want to get 2 at such price, I took 2 extra Godox V860 Speedlight for my secondaries. Pretty sure it would still be much better than a basic reflector.

    • @paulrichardson6
      @paulrichardson6 2 года назад

      lighting ratios mean you'll want about 1.5-2 stops less power for the fill. If you used the ad400 at full power, you would want a 100w light at full power (likely 200w). THe v860 might have a different colour to the ad400, I think the speedlights will be much more green. So that could cause issues too
