I love this minimalist kit! Having a smaller setup for travel is perfect!

Scotland is high on our list of places to visit! We want to hike the west highland way and shoot portraits of people along the way.

Dude, the algorithm read my mind! Thanks!👍🏾

bet it was... I'm not made to be in front of the camera but I'll keep trying.

Nice video! I've been thinking of doing something similar with my GRIIIx. I have the optional adapter that brings it to 75mm equivalent, so I'm thinking I can even do some traditional portraiture. I realized my Godox triggers will work with Ricoh in manual mode. So, small camera, lens adapter, small flash for OCF (runs on two AA batteries), small trigger, and a compact tripod/light stand. Didn't get a chance to try the kit yet, but I'm hoping!

Sounds great! Hope you can get that kit working. I wish fuji would come out with something like a 70-90mm equivalent.

Love the kit sir!

Great work dude, I have a similar kit and love it.

Great video! I’m a minimalist too, I don’t have those accessories that do not contribute to a better photo with exception of a NiSi in front. My gear is just the x100vi, wrist strap (artisan and artist paracord) and the godox 350F since the built in flash causes red eye and doesn’t reload fast enough. I either use a Patagonia 3L dirt roamer waist pack or the Temba 4 skyline v3 4 pouch.

Sounds like a great kit! Forgot it in the video but I have an older super thin peak design strap that I shortened so it’s comfy around the shoulder or with one wrap makes a nice wrist strap.

Great Video!! do you bring a light stand or just hold the softbox?

@nickroush

5 күн бұрын

So that clic softbox does have a mount for a stand at the bottom of the handle. Sometimes I’ll bring a stand with me if I’m solo, have a friend hold it for me, or in a pinch I can hold it myself if I’m shooting come close up portraits.

I really like your photos from Ecuador. Pls make a video about how you made them :) lighting + processing

Thank you! A deeper dive into those images is on my list of video ideas!

Lets see some pictures please :)

Do you gain any benefit from the leaf shutter using the profoto wireless system or are you limited to normal sync speeds?

@@CharlieWangPhoto leaf shutters flash sync at all shutter speeds so wouldn’t matter what flash you’re using.

@nickroush

Correct! Some wireless triggers may have some sync timing issues but you should be able to sync all the way up to the leaf shutters max speed. For my setup in this video thats all the way up to 1/4000 sec

​@@nickroush @michaelacedeno That's great to hear! I tested a godox system at work with a friend's X100 IV and we couldn't figure out how to get it to work, but if we ever try again, we'll try to get a trigger that lets us dial in the sync timing. I really appreciate the insight. Seems like the perfect way to min/max flash size to power ratio while traveling

0:09 Hi, I have the Fuji x100vi for this reason, could you give me the details of the profoto and the flash sync please

how do you balance natural light and flash? do you use a light meter?

@nickroush

7 күн бұрын

I've used a meter in the past but now I just eyeball it. Typically I'll shoot a couple photos without the flash and dial in my exposure around 1/3 - 1 stop under exposed and then bring in the flash and adjust power to get a mix I like.
