lighting set~up
photography is
painting with light so … lighting is the ‘key’ in photography
generally, we can divide lighting into:
1. based on the source:
a. nature light: sun, moon and stars ‌. are called continuous light b. artificial light: # continuous light [candle-light, flood-light, fluorecent, etc.]
# flash light
2. based on the function: # main light # fill~in light # effect light
3. based on the character: # hard~light [spot, fresnel, standard reflectors, etc.]
# medium~light [honeycomb, silver-umbrella, etc.]
# soft~light [softboxes, indirect-softlites, white umbrella, translucent umbrella, etc.]
4. based on the position: # front~light # side~light # back~light # top~light # bottom~light
5. based on the pattern / shape # broad~light [softboxes, indirect~softlites, 16 - 26 cm reflectors, 40 - 70 cm maxi~soft, etc.]
# narrow~light [honeycomb 80 - 300, snoot, etc.]
# spot~light [mini~spot, zoom~spot, fresnel, etc.]
6. based on the target [ to create effect on the target ] # hair~light # background~light # edge / rim, etc.
to set the power of light from the flash units as the f/stop in the camera, the light should be measured with an instrument, that is :
flash meter
flash
meter
diaphragm [f/stop] speed [1/s] iso / asa
lighting equipment
compact flash series
indirect softlites and rotalux softboxes
mobilite and accessories
umbrellas
