    I would like the RFT 17. I like how it can be combined with umbrella. I am a wedding, portrait and general event photographer. The functionality of some of these light reflectors are new to me! Go Godox!

  • @kavanlake871
    @kavanlake871 3 года назад +1

    Wow, I didn’t know Godox made all those reflectors 😊👌🏾. I would most likely use the RFT-13 or RFT-14 combined with an umbrella to boost the light output, and still use smaller lights like the 100 or 200 pro. I typically shoot fashion, fashionable portraits, and dance.

  • @elizabethstanley9645
    @elizabethstanley9645 3 года назад

    Definitely the RFT-14 with grid and BD! I am an on location and studio portrait photographer and this would be ideal for it's versatility with mounting accessories and specifically it's ability with the grid and BD to narrow and control the light 😍

    RTF-14 is my go to! I love a grid for when I’m mixing with an overhead umbrella.

  • @zaidal-barakati929
    @zaidal-barakati929 3 года назад

    I have and use the RTF-14 with Barn doors with a grid every time im using a hard rim or hair light, gives me the desired effect with minimum spill on the background or subject, and makes attaching gels very fast and easy.

  • @amielmanresa

    RTF-14 is best for me. Adding the color gel and barnbox gives a solid looks and beauty on the image that adds life on it

    1. I would use the RFT-13
    2. I typically combine the barndoor and gel combination to my setup
    3. I use this combination for my fashion shoots.

    You did a really good job on this video. Almost all manufacturers could take a lesson from this on how the properly differentiate their products. And your ability to be very creative was evident. On another note, I have come to rely on godox AD200s.

    I'm pretty much Studio photographer the most of the time, I've been using standard reflector by now with barn door and gels, but I really like the RFT-13 and the RFT-18 are amazing modifiers and will allow me to improve some concepts.

  • @dantepadre7710
    @dantepadre7710 3 года назад

    I use color gels often, sometimes to affect/control white balance, but more often to give splashes of color, especially if they enhance the mood or story of the picture. I love grids to help control the spill of light, but I haven’t had a chance to use barndoors yet. Umbrellas or softboxes are always part of my shooting kit. 👍

    RTF-14 would be my reflector of choice, because of it versatility and increased light output. I'd use it in the studio and outside for fashion and portrait photography.

  • @ftbalz
    @ftbalz 3 года назад +3

    Doing mostly portrait work in studio and location settings, I've been looking into the RFT-18 for better light control.
    One item I think Godox REALLY needs is to make a Fresnel lens that is directly mounted for ML60 and other godox mounts. I love all my godox lighting but really kills the storage space taking along adapter brackets when trying to travel lightly..

    @DavidVelezPhotography 3 года назад

    What an amazing line of products. In my case, I have a home studio. Lighting the background without lighting my subject is a problem. Using Cine foil has been my go-to. I would like to try the RFT-18 modifier to see if it would produce better results and look good while doing it.

    Hi Aries, thanks for another insightful video. I use the Godox BD-10 kit to gel and grid the standard reflector on my Godox AD-300 Pro. I also use the Godox AD-R12 long focus reflector on my AD-300 Pro. Hard light can be awesome when it's wielded with deliberate intention! 😊

    RTF 14 would allow you combine the barn doors and color gels.

    I just started using the AD 300 Pro and got the RFT-14 kit. I am looking to use it to combat the sun, but use gel's. I do portrait photography, but mostly wedding photography and am looking for this kit (AD 300 x2) to bring my lighting to the next level. I guess a softbox will be my next experiment.

  • @AmaurysFigueroa
    @AmaurysFigueroa 3 года назад

    Awesome video! I would choose the RTF-14 for the extra output it delivers since most of my shoots are outdoor and I love the fact that you can add the color gels and the grid directly to it, that would definitely help a lot with the process.

  • @jonaharnischmacher2196
    @jonaharnischmacher2196 3 года назад

    I would go for the RFT-13 as it gives me more light output to battle the sun outdoors. If I'm indoors I usually use an AD100 pro for fill with gels or for the background and if I need barndoors or a grid I use the AK-R1 Kit with it but I don't combine any reflectors with gels or barndoors.
    I do mostly action portraits of dancers or circus artists as well as fine arts nude portraits but I also love to just experiment with all the tools I have.

  • @ale.giacobazzi

    I would definitely get the RFT-14 for the various combinations of Grids, Gels and Barn Doors for dramatic portraits.
    I think I would get the RFT-13 too, though, to get extra power in the midday sun, which is always useful.
    To be honest I would get them all, if I could! 🤣

  • @OnkgopotseTitus

    1. RFT-14

    Hope I get the free gift. A Godox AC400 would totally change my life.

  • @jlopez7596
    @jlopez7596 3 года назад

    I wish I would have had this video three weeks ago. Good video overall. I like how you showed the pattern, explaining the added power however is it due to the diameter of the reflections that they dont accept the barn doors and grids? Also there was no mention of the magnum reflector.

  • @skinosensei
    @skinosensei Год назад

    Q: Which reflector would you choose?
    A: It depends on the need at any specific time. That said, I'm very interested in trying the RFT-18 for lighting the background during portrait shoots. It would eliminate my need for barn doors and a grid to prevent light spilling onto the model.
    Q: Do you combine color gel, grid, barndoor or umbrella with your reflector?
    A: I often use grids on softboxes to prevent light from spilling onto the background or onto the ceiling and spreading light everywhere. I use flags for that too. I use colored gels for the background. Furthermore, I use gobos; sometimes in an optical snoot.
    Q: For what kind of photo shoots do you do?
    A: I mostly shoot portraits - indoors and outdoors.

    Light modifiers do not increase the flash output of a flash they only present the luminance of the flash in a more efficient manner, or they degrade the efficiency of the luminance such as the crappy reflectors provided with the pro series Godox flash units. Your 600 watt flash did not increase in flash power to a 1500 watt flash nor did it even increase the apparent flash power to a 1500 watt flash, the 600 watt flash only ever had a maximum flash output of 600 watts.
