I just got an SL60W and I've been pretty impressed with the quality so far. Nice to see Skyler using some gear I can afford! haha

thank you very much for all your videos: educational and original. I learn a lot by watching them

Ever since I got my Aputure 300d mkii’s, they’re all im using for everything!

Having shot hundreds of restaurants menus, I found early on that using flash or strobes inside a working, open for business restaurant, is just to disruptive and intrusive to paying customers attempting to enjoy a meal. So because of that I use leds inside a restaurant, if it's before or after hours with no customers I usually use a strobe.

Great topic Skylar. I love my stobes! My biggest challenge is understanding more in detail about strobe settings and basic education.

great stuff good to see this comparison as often thinking that my speedlites are overkill for still food and product shoots especially these winter months where its dark early and easy to shoot in darkness!

Congratulations Skyler, the studio looks like my DREAM studio! --the video is just in a perfect timing for me cause I'm about to start using artificial light for the very first time and I was looking for an advice!

Thank you! It’s a very nice space to work in. Yeah artificial lights are my favorite, but I would say for 98% of food and beverage you can do it with either strobes or continuous lights equally as well. It’s just the other 2% that strobes win out. It’s all about your budget, and if you plan on shooting video

Congratulations on the new studio and move! Can't wait to see the great content in this new space!

Amazing !!! Thank you so much... raven fan from your work !!! Thank you for your informative videos.

Constant light is key for video and photo ty sir. Been trying to figure out the lights.

Great video. The constant light looks more natural to me. I have all three, but lately I've just been using constant light. It's much more convenient and mine take the ubiquitous L mount batteries (in addition to AC power), which adds further to the convenience.

Congratulations on your new studio, so happy for you. You are a great photographer btw

Super useful this video. I recently started shooting Product/Food Photography for local businesses in my town (small town and no previous food photo experience) at their request. I usually shoot Cars, Portraits and Events however, I tested both my Godox SL60W which is lovely, but my AD300's with the modelling lights and 85mm softboxes were just perfect.

I am actually considering the Godox ML60 as a supplement for my Godox AD600 (I find the strobe a bit too time consuming since there is a lot of shooting and adjusting). The ML60 is also for bit of video filming. Do you find he ML60 powerful enough for food photography? Thanks in advance ;-)

Welcome to SLC my friend!

Great video! Constant lights are bad for shooting cold food since they heat up the subject quickly, but they're still my favorite light. I say get constant lights first then move on to the strobes while you're learning.

awesome, make 1 video of your setup . taking food photography with 1 - 2 or even 3 lights if you do .

Ive shot a quite a few restaurant location jobs now. Generally there isnt much room or time to drag in to much equipment. Id definitely agree with your comments about needing hybrid coverage, that's now my experience today. Id go for a powerful small battery powered led if possible. Usually tho I'll find a window and I use a reflector.

Would you think the Godox ML60 (60 watt) is enough for the use you suggest? Is is sooooo wonderfully small and portable. But Would I need to go with for instance the Godox VL150 (150 watt) instead?

What a nice new studio!

Excellent breakdown. I come from a video background and have a lot of constant lighting but now interested in picking up a strobe to test. What's your favorite color temperature (in kelvin) for food photography. Personally I like a little warmth (just below neutral) to the shot but see a lot of photographers shooting more Day White. I'm guessing this is more standard. I'm interested to hear your opinion.

Congratulations on the move! I'm in SLC and Love it! Check out the Springville art museum if you find yourself in Utah county. I grew up down the road from there. Garry Price has some cool status throughout the town, aswell as the state 😉

how you do your over head setup

Actually nowadays with the godox ad600, ad400, and the ad200 the difference in price between these and good flashes is not much so I just chose to go with godox strobes, I have an ad600 and two ad200s. I was using flashes but I sold them and just upgraded to those.

we shoot a strobe with softbox through another defussion screen. that SL60w is a great light, we use that one for video light on overhead video work.

Are there any continuous lights you would recommend for traveling? We shoot photo and video but the SL60W is a bit bulking to travel with. Is it time for flash? Or are there any options?

Well, videographers & film guys have to use constant light sources, still photogs have an option, constant or strobe. Both groups produce good work. Of course, as you said, strobes freeze action--pouring beer, etc. And of course, color temp and spectral distribution should not be overlooked--clients hate it when their product has even a hint of the wrong color. Groups of strobes have been used successfully together as a single source for decades. Constant light, however, should not be overlooked. Back in the 1960s at Elmer Moss' studio, the story goes, a shot of a great number of ice cream scoops in one shot was done with hot lights and with a view camera--possibly an 8x10. He did the shot successfully; so it can be done.

Hey man. Great video. I already own two Godox V1 speedlights. Should I start with them or go with strobes? Many thanks. J. ❤

I want that backdrop, where can I get it?

How do you attach strobe to the top bar?

Also, which light should I get?

Is sl60w can do wedding photography?

Did you use a light meter for the video?

Looks like a great studio. Will you be working remotely with clients as I gather it’s a bit of a drive from major centres? Is that the latest Godox LED light?

I don't do a lot of flash photog, but I've picked up the Godox tt685 and the bowen's adapter. I really love using it with my softbox and the godox receiver. The fact that the Tx is integrated to the flash is awesome. I was considering picking up the Godox AD200 Flash/Strobe though as it's $199... What's your thought on those?
