Re: Some macros with flash NEW SERIES with new settings

Thx In the first series the head of the cobra flish was oriented dircetly to the subject with a small softbox but even with the diffuser it delivers a harsh light.

After your comment I gave a 45 ° up orientation to the head of the cobra, used the diffuser gris and the small wite screen that you can pull upin the head of the flash.

and if the flash has not the wite scren an even bettrer solution is

Then you only have to play i,n M mode with settings : ISO, aperture, SS, power of flash, and angle of the head.

I spent recently sometime to correctly master these parameters and now I get good results with my Godox
