The first one is under-exposed by a stop. Are you shooting RAW? Bump up the exposure by a stop and you'll like it better. Also if you can move the model forward, this way the wrinkles in the sheet...

I use a Honl speed strap, which is good for all kinds of things, and the Honl's gel filters that attach to the strap. Not the cheapest but quite elegant.

Especially if you have a later camera that will operate in Group mode, get the flash off the camera by getting an ST-E3-RT wireless controller. There aren't too many scenarios where you would need...

Hi SB, thanks so much for your helpful and detailed critique.
I didn't do any PP on the images. I was pretty mortified to see the makeup issue when I opened up the files. Clearly I should have...

Trying to improve my portrait photography, which is something I haven't done much of until recently. What do you think of these?Three Canon 600EX, one main light in a medium softbox, one fill light...
-
What SB said of course, and I would add a couple of other comments. I think your mistake here was worrying about making a 'high key' portrait. The reason the faces are under-exposed is that you...

Totally agree with SterlingFX, it depends on the show. A high end Fashion Week type event will have perfect lighting and it is easy to shoot.
I recently was with a local designer who used the back...

The short answer would be no, the quality of the photos will be determined by the way you use light. If you're fine with cables, get the flash off the camera and bounce it into a cheap umbrella and...

If you are looking to get the flash off the camera and can afford it the 600EX and its wireless radio controller ST-E3-RT are really simple. You can continue to add flashes down the road. I usually...

Yeah nice photo I just think you should have moved her slightly or moved yourself a bit to the right to get rid of the twig growing out of her.
-
Yes nice photo but imo you need to cut it in half vertically. Then discard the right half. Cornell Capa's rule is evident here... if you don't like your photos, get closer.

No screen, the window was open. After I saw the first image, I made sure there were no relections. Plus I put the flash in manual zoom mode to 200mm. Strange!

I had a 1.4, sold it to help finance a 1.2L. Recently I decided to get a 1.8 cuz I was looking to do a specific type of street shooting that would be fine with a 50mm and I wanted a light lens. I...

Hi all:Yesterday I had my camera on a tripod in manual mode shooting with a 600EX-RT in manual mode, bouncing off ceiling. I was shooting some stuff I wanted to put on ebay. It all came out...

Short answer is to use manual, not ettl.

You really should try an go a little bit better. I've seen that flash bracket and it's not very strong. Manfrotto makes a very good one, number 026

That's not a beauty dish, that's a toy. You probably have some money in the flash, spend a little more and get the flash off the camera either with a synch cord or radio trigger, and get one of...

Hi all, time for me to get a backdrop support system for cloth backdrops and seamless paper. Until now I've been using Westcott collapsible backdrops and their holder.
MUST be portable as in goes...

I'd be more inclined to go with the off-white paint theory than the ambient light theory. Because the image was shot at 1/200 second. There would have to be a lot of ambient light to overpower the...

After some trials and tribulations, I've decided to go with Photoflex softboxes for my studio needs, which I will be using with 600-EX-RTs (for the most part). While I don't think they have the...
