Hey, between friends, if certain language is accepted and not taken as a insult, a listener has no freakin business making comments as if THEY had been the target. Freakin bleeding hearts.......!!!!!!! Nice video Matt, nice to see Tina again.
LMAO, seriously why are some people so negative, he is joking. Piss off and go and watch something more formal. For the rest of us who like Matt's style keep it : )
Dear Matt, Again, great example of how to use a reflector when doing portraits outdoor. I'll be doing some photo shoots at the beach (Scheveningen The Netherlands) this summer. I always love to watch your inspiring videos! Greetings, Vincent Pothuizen
You could also do the reverse, right? Instead of adding even more light, you could block some of the harsh light using a diffuser. Not quite the same effect, but if you're simply after more-or-less even lighting, it might do the job.
Brilliant. I had bought a cheap 2nd hand backdrop off ebay. Wonder why the cross bar doesn't grip. Turns out someone's put two of these on either end. Haha at least I know how to use it now!
Hey Matt what I've thought about doing in this case us framing up the shot with the camera on a tripod and then use a remote or IR trigger to trigger fire the camera while I hold the reflector. Obviously if your moving around a lot then this wouldn't work but if you are using a fixed composition and frame once you frame up your shot then it could work.
How much aperture do we set for Portrait with flash on during bring sunlight ???!! What cheap Lens could I use for the same with Canon 5 D mark III body?
Thanks for the video. There is also oval shape of this reflectors. Do you know which one is more useful, oval or circle? Is there any advantage of using any of them?
can anyone tell me where to get the one with the handle (i have a 5-in-1 but it does't have a handle & I don't want to spend to set up the lightstands)?
Great video!! I want to use the larger one for full body shots. Will that one work? Also, how close does the larger reflector have to be from the person to give enough light? Thanks!
Matt. .. I never tried it but with a big enough reflector would you be able to bend the reflector so the light wraps around the subject instead of holding two reflectors?
Hi just recently subscribed as your videos are great, I ust have a question about using the diffuser..........would you change your white balance from sunny to shade ?
I really don't know why everybody keeps using that old "shutter" sound with the motor pulling the film to the next frame... It's more theatrical, but so, so old.
I find it so very ironic that the very people getting upset over one word said in jest between friends having a fun shoot are yet being much more mean in their own comment to someone whom they do not know! What a bunch of pretentious idiots. I like your videos, and just go keep having fun with it. The keyboard ninjas have nothing better to do since they are not out being productive themselves haha
She's gorgeous. You can tell you're just palling around but 'toots' was a bit much. What is this a '70s Encino porn shoot? Still, some valuable info here. This was one of the first things I had to figure out when I got my first reflector.
Good LORD! You people make me cringe! Have we gotten so PC that we can't even call a friend "Toots?" I had a girl (yes, GIRL, get over it PC people), call me 'Hun' (not like Attila, but like honey), at the check out line the other day. The lady that was with my was appalled. I looked at her like she had two heads. Why in the world would someone be upset that someone else called them "Hun"? I just don't get it.
hey matt i just saw new video of froknowphoto and he is starting with canon too.....whats this all about? i mean i know its a battle for subs but....nah nvm xD
To anyone who is part of the disabled community: Less than two minutes in, he playfully calls his model a "retard". There are helpful videos out there made by real professionals that have consideration for other people. This guy clearly has no idea about the negative impact of casually using a word like that has on people who live every day with a disability - People who have always had more strength than the people saying "Toughen up" in response to those not finding it funny (because it really isn't. Explain how it's funny?) Don't bother watching. Have a good day. 🙂
I got an autistic sister so i hate the word retard and how others dont see the damage that word caused throughout peoples lives Aside from tht very useful video
