A local business wanted some images but part of it was photographing glass which reflects. Any suggestions to prevent this as what happened here - all the images - https://www.flickr.com/photos/lautermilch/albums/72177720308702396

Ok, we are on the same page. My question is the power settings on the strobe.: let's take the 1/4 range. I know that is one quarter full power. But I also get as I turn the dial: 1/4 =0.3 1/4 +0.7 1/4 1/8 +0.3 1/8 1/16 +0.7 1/16 +.03 1/16 is the weakest setting on the strobe The question I had...

This person is showing the strobe and it has two scales or at least the newer model. This is near what I am wanting to know. I have the fractions like the strobe on the left as he is talking.

True, those are videos. I was looking for a video on the power setting scale for a strobe.

thanks I have the manual. The equation you posted does not translate to me. Anyone have a video for learning I can watch?

I have two Godex SK400s in a home studio. I keep them at 4 and 8 o'clock and like the results such as: https://www.flickr.com/photos/lautermilch/albums/72177720305052703 https://www.flickr.com/photos/lautermilch/albums/72177720298480362 Anyway, I see the slight increments on some numbers on the...

So it is long overdue this person got some replies. I hope I don't have to wait that long in my request I just posted.

As for the female portrait, I recommend a light fill flash. I shoot in 50/35mm and use a fill flash that gives just a 'kiss' of light and the adjustments are done in Adobe Camera Raw. In this outdoor set you can see where I got the fill flash right and some images were it was not strong enough -...

Hello, I am using a D7000 for models with the 35mm F/1.8 in most cases. I have tried all the AF-C, AF-A, and AF-S modes with the number of focus points. Can anyone tell me the focus most I was using with this RAW file - https://www.dropbox.com/s/jdy2vz5qpvx0k5u/DSC_0122.NEF?dl=0 I have tried...

I got his free sample and did one image in all. HDR Silver 1 is my favorite. Looking at the lettering on the propeller. The only change I did in any image was tweaking the exposure. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/4ybohlmxqy7uyrm/AAC3YaHveTEkVrIuQejnwEfta?dl=0

I use ACR for greyscale and have bought presets for a base profile that I modify on the fly. These images caught my eye as I would love to have the settings. The one with the two woman on the bench is my favorite...

I have a D7000 with twin SK 400ii Strobes. I used 35 and 50MM 1.8 and am happy with results such as: https://www.flickr.com/photos/lautermilch/albums/72177720298480362 https://www.flickr.com/photos/lautermilch/albums/72177720295521242 Anyway, I got a model that wants to do a 'shuffle dance' in...

With 4 and 8 o'clock I got the lighting I wanted. Using muslin was a mistake. After an iron and a pro steamer it still had wrinkles. I hand ironed a 10x20 and gave up when I saw the results. A basic Savage paper collection being is being delivered tomorrow. I am getting some sand and a tarp as...

I was forced to move a few month ago and was given a choice of apartments and took a much larger one and wanted to create a decent home studio. My first question is on which wall should I place the backdrop? I bought a 10 foot wide frame and several 10x20 backdrops. My first goal is images...

I moved recently and rented a very large two bedroom and am making the main living area a studio. I have a heavy duty stand on the way but reading reviews of backdrops on Amazon I see a lot of complaints. I am looking for a source for some 10x20 muslin backdrop that are made of quality...

I would like to use my D7000 is portrait mode with a flash connected. I move around and don't like any kind of tri-pod in my area as it attracts attention. I did buy a bracket online but will return it as it was flimsy. I have a D700, 80-200 F/2.8 and would like to do indoor bounce but that...

I finally got my Sekonic light meter working and have been dong tests with my Godex SK400. Due to Covid I have only been doing indoor group shoots and have been learning lighting. Normally I would be outside with a softbox at the proper time of day for images. Besides the strobe I have a...

I just wore out a D90 and replaced it with a D7000 that was barely used. I do models in 50mm and just want a soft fill flash. Examples of my D90 at work - https://www.flickr.com/photos/lautermilch/albums/72157689784540353 Anyway, I know there is an issue with settings with my D7000 and my...
