I want to fly to Sweden with my goods for a photo shoot. How awesome would that be to get an invite to the Botvidssen studio? Coffee and cameras, I’d get lost in there.
That you very much for the great tutorial. This is why I follow you on youtube my friend. Your lessons are a superb. I have learned so much that I must say THANK YOU VERy, VERY MUCH Martin.
I guess for those of us that have silver C stands, wrapping a bit of Cinefoil around the boom arm would be effective. And it's a lot cheaper than getting a whole new stand - not that there's anything wrong with having a nice big collection of stands ; )
Hi, great video as usual! ;) Can you tell what lens are you using that you don't have to make focus stacking? I usually use 100 mm and for object this size I'd probably do stacking.
The problem with composite shots like this is that it will be more complicated to do focus stacking. Not impossible but very time consuming. You have to stack every shot, and also place the flash on a stand. I always shoot with the 100mm macro lens, the reason I use the 24-70mm in this video is that I want to fit the camera in the video frame, not to have it too far away.
Another great video. So much info in a easy to comprehend way, even for those of us that barely speek Swenglish. I realy apreciate the fact that you do these in a language not native to yourself just for me !! LOL.
Really like your videos! A lot of how-to videos only show what works. You explain step by step and how you assess each shot/what corrections to make. Very helpful!
botvidsson ja det har de om jag inte miss minner mig. Själv har jag: Tamron 24-70mm G2, Tamron 70-200mm G2, Nikon 35mm. Vilka av dessa tycker du? Har mindre utrymme att använda då jag står i köket.
@@RobinNero "Har mindre utrymme att använda" Hur menar du? Vilket av dessa objektiv som du har minst användning av i köket? Förmodligen 70-200, kanske även 35mm. Den bästa tycker jag, helt klart, är 24-70mm. Den kör jag med i denna video.
We actually did record an episode where we shot a bass guitar but I (we) felt that the end result was not good enough so it will unfortunately never be posted on youtube. I do many recordings that never hit the youtube channel, crazy but true 🤨
@@botvidsson Watching it now. Even at the fast clip it's totally easy to see what you're doing. Simple compositing and masking for the most part. That's perfect. Thanks, Martin!
I've gotten some great tips from your videos even though I've been shooting for 35 years. Never stop learning. Although I'm not a fan of the jump cuts, I keep coming back because the content is solid.
Thanks. Great to hear. I’m also still learning every day, it never stops. I know the jump cuts can be tuff but I have no choice. Can’t make 2-6h video tutorials. 😁
Jag har aldrig fotat med blixt (en riktig blixt) och använder mest lampor för att lysa upp det jag fotar. Hur kontrollerar du vart blixten hamnar? Hur skapar du reflektioner på vissa sidor och objekt? Spontant känns det som att blixen skulle slå överallt och lysa på allt.
Anledningen att den inte slår överallt är den ljusmodifieraren jag sätter på blixten, en sk reflektor med en sk honey comb grid. Då blir ljuskällan extremt liten och man kan fokusera på små detaljer.
botvidsson är som magi. Funderar på om jag ska investera i en blixt, reflektor och honeycomb grid. Fotar en del mat idag men med Continuous Light, vilket fungerar men ger mig inte riktigt den effekten som jag vill ha.
Det finns en video där jag fotar en Marshall speaker med bara en liten LED panel, och sen sätter ihop bilderna i Photoshop. Finns även en Nike-sko (Rosa) som jag fotar med en LED-ficklampa. De ligger under playlist Tutorials with botvidsson
Hi, I have a question. I use Capture one for live view, i have a nikon d610, is there a way to use an external shutter when I connect a camera to a computer? At the moment I can only take a picture if I click into capture that photo button, I can not click either on the camera or on the external shutter. This is very frustrating and hard because I use a speedlight and I use it from my hand because my stand is used for other things.
Sorry to hear that, I do not know Nikon cameras unfortunately. I do know that on my Canon I sometimes need to hit the live view button twice to be able to trigger. Sorry I can't help better.
Nice video, only observation I noticed is that you guys forgot the S in the name of the brand, because the client would probably notice that right away.
Very nice lighting, if im being picky it would have been nice to focus stack the microphone grill as it gets noticeably softer at the tip of the microphone since its taken so close and has so much depth.
Yes all shots should be stacked but then we had to put the strobe on a lightstand and then a lot of post work... you know, this videos are more so people can get a it inspired.
botvidsson so i’m trapped at home with just some minimum equipment and i was thinkin’ to have some fun with product photography. I have a few nice perfume bottles around like a narciso rodriguez pink bottle, a small black bottle of tom ford, maybe some creme recipients, some cosmetics.i guess none really transparent
It can be a bit tricky to use only one light for shooting advanced perfume bottles. If I had only one light and had to shoot a perfume bottle I would place some kind of diffusion paper behind the bottle (if it's transparent) and lit up the diffusion from behind. Classic and beautiful, then maybe play with the surface, water?
