Mastering Light Control with MagMod Modifiers - Part I

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

In this video, Pye Jirsa shares how he uses the MagGrid, MagSphere, and ProGels to control, shape and color the light from his flashes to create incredible images in the studio. In this introduction to flash photography lighting fundamentals, Pye focuses on the importance of using MagGrids to control light so that it doesn't spill into the light from another flash, giving your background a nice saturated color. Pye also demonstrates why he loves the MagSphere + MagGrid stacked combo, which is one of the favorite combinations of modifiers that photographers love using.

    Outstanding. In addition to your trademark clear and succinct teach ing style, for me what I really appreciated was the inclusion of the Flash power settings. As I learn more about off camera flash in manual, with the 2 exposure triangles (camera & flash) the power settings are new 'frontier'! :-) The question I have is about the zoom setting on the speedlights. I heard once to use 50mm for a softbox, what do you recommend for the MagMods? Thank you

    What causes the double edges on the shadow when using a softbox without the diffuser? Is the light source recessed a little too far?

    Love this! Just got my wedding flash kit yesterday & excited to use! Question, I’ve been only using one flash handheld for our wedding receptions but I’m excited to add two more on stands for dancing etc. I see Pye is using a nano stand in this video. Would you recommend that for. Reception setup or something else? I’m using Yongnuo flashes. Thanks

    Unfortunately. They let most the team go for now for budget reasons, hopefully, one day we'll be back with them again. They're a great crew and company.
