Thanks for the video! I was looking for a soft box to use when filming the beauty shots of my 3D art pieces and models, since my current set up is… questionable (at best). It’s hard to know what you’re buying sometimes, but you’ve addressed almost all my concerns in this video. Appreciate it! 🎉
I'm researching these but can't find your video review of the earlier product. I want to see characteristics and examples of what to avoid. Can you provide a link?
Sorry I do not know what you mean to avoid? Some videos I updated and removed the old. For audio hacks and tips a lot of videos are in the playlist called HOT TIPS.
There is a strap at the top which you put the background colour sheet under to stop it from falling down there is also a little tab at the bottom to help keep the sheet in place.
Thank you David 😅, somehow I didn't even notice the strap with the white on white. I'll remove that part of the video from this... wish RU-vid allowed combining of clips so I could add that in.
I do not see your reply here, but I do in my mail. Anyway in answer to your question, I am a semi-professional photographer, I also work full-time. As for audio stuff well I am a big Audio Note fan.
@@David-gh8my Nice, I'm an electrician but a tech hobbyist. I started doing the audio reviews on this channel to get a better understanding and to figure out more real world methods for measuring the quality or audio and to compare audio than just being a 100% general test. At the end of most of my recent videos I speak about the strengths and weaknesses of many of the microphones that are similar and popular and how it compares. Also more recently added reverb / untreated room testing since I see a lot of people with normally good mics having awful audio due to a room being untreated or having too much background noise. Eventually I need to get a new camera with better picture clarity especially better dynamic range without tones becoming washed out. The Sony ZV1 can lose parts of image detail and become a "bright white" mess.
Thank you for checking out the channel. There is a band on the back and bottom that I believe I missed showing that holds are the color panels in place. Do you enter contests with your macro photography or is this a new thing for you?
I love wildlife photography taking pics of birds. I just recently bought the Canon rf100 macro lens so I'm new to macro but hopefully enter into a few contests in my camera club with it.
@@lornelorne5727 the top Velcros on like everything else. I have since tossed this item out due to lack of space since I only live in a small 6 foot x 7 foot (1.8m x 2.1m) room, with a small closet otherwise I could have made you a short video. The only thing that doesn't really hold are the colored plastic sheets but even that has a strap on top and on bottom to hold it, I missed showing the top strap in this video.
Using one of these was new to me so I’m wondering if the 16 x 16 size is gonna work because those seams in the corners show unless you have a small enough subject and can zoom in to eliminate those seams in the photo. There’s a white elastic strap at the top of the back panel that I couldn’t figure out what that’s for other than possibly holding the backdrops in place but the assembly Velcro doesn’t allow that. Somewhat disappointed in this product mostly because the back seams are so sloppy.
I missed showing that yes there are the elastics to hold the backdrops up on the top and bottom. The size of unit you need certain depends on object size. As a rule of thumb get AT LEAST double the size of the largest object you plan to take pictures of... 3 times bigger is even better but than it gets HUGE. Maybe you have something assembled off for the Velco to make using the elastics not work for you... If you have discord or Facebook I could make you a video or you could send me what is happening so I could make it specific how to solve your issue.
