love it. glad you had an electrician do the hardwire. not difficult but better safe than sorry. (electrician as my paying gig right now because getting photo clients is HARD) you can NEVER have enough flat surfaces to pile stuff!
i did the same thing but while i thought about getting the 200s, i would have needed some S brackets but flashox/gopoint (lol) have a 300ws triple set up that was about the price of 1 200 and the S brackets and came with stands (im ocd so matching stands is a big thing to me) and a nice carry case. i did the same triangle, with the modeling lights on (for my 'constant light' for small pupils). the only bad thing is that theyre corded. i have a fp 400 evolv that i used for a single background light. it all worked pretty good for about a dozen headshots i did as some tfp for a local museum staff. it was also the first time i shot tethered. i had only 2 copies though because i was on location lol. i got the glow ez up/ez pop in 12x36 strip lights i LOVE your studio. the equipment cage is amazing. i have the same tripod and just got a new ball head for it. great video!
Hey, great video. I'm just fitting out a studio and this set up is perfect. Was already looking at the Bror trolley from Ikea but flipping the shelves is genius! I've never used a monitor arm so could you tell me how it attaches to the thin edge on the top? Thanks!!
Don't wide lenses have their issues? Compensating for crop in 4K60 by using a pseudo-fisheye lens is not a very good solution for anyone who is serious about shooting video.
Fantastic video guys just want to start off with that, but at the end of the day, if you’re using your cameras for professional work in the field, you should go with the Sony grip. It’s made of the same material as the camera itself, (magnesium alloy body) it’s actually designed with the blueprints for the camera itself. Now, if you’re a hobbyist, or using your camera indoors only then the third-party options are absolutely fantastic. But I wouldn’t trust a third-party grip if I was shooting a wedding for instance, or really any event that’s only one time thing. Third-party grips are fine if it’s a repeatable thing, but do you really want to trust a third-party grip on a several thousand dollar paid shoo BecauseBecause you wanted to save 300 bucks. If it’s that big of a deal, increase your prices of your shoots by like $50. The only reason I even consider third-party lenses right now is because Sony released all the schematics for the emount several years ago which allows third-party manufactures to actually create native lenses without having to reverse engineer anything. basically it comes down to if you’re professional you should buy the appropriate gear for the type of work you’re doing. Using cheap, third-party equipment is rarely the route to go as it can cause you to mess up an entire event. And while there’s a time in place for this type of gear, I don’t personally believe it belongs in the bag of a professional who’s out in the field
I am doubting to buy the eyelighter reflector 3 or the curved softbox glow. Would the reflector really ve annoying in terms on not being able to adjust the strength?
20 seconds in on headphones i cant stand the pounding and handling noise on your table you really really need to put those mics on arms to the floor or another table thats not connected to what your shooting on cause that shit is terrible. I cant hear it with speakers but i tend to watch videos with headphones and man its loud
Great Video.. 1 - what size were your soft box rectangles? I couldn't hear it. And, I have 2 AD400's and an AD300 wondering if you'd use the AD300 for the bottom eyelighter and the AD400's as your main lights. And lastly, I don't have any other lights, how would you make your background white without the top 2 lights. Thanks
This guy is very mischievous. He is presenting this post with the simplicity as a joke would but if you take him serious enough, you learn a lot. Brilliant. by the way, Naomi is awesome .
Get the a7iv instead of a7siii, save yourself $1000, then add $200 and buy yourself the Sony 14mm 1.8, now you have a camera shooting 4k 60 with 21mm lens
I know this video was done a while ago but the third party grips can have one problem you didn’t evaluate. Some will not properly accept an Arca Swiss compatible L-bracket made to fit a VG-C4EM. They have, in some cases, kept the size of the older VG-C3EM. You should have a base plate or L-bracket to evaluate them. Thanks for the video.
