Love this vid, the shutter speed was around 1/100 for some shots, would you recommend higher for freezing motions like jumps?

Gosh...i've tried using yongnuo speedlights and I always get like a "graphic-y" kinda look. But these images look so true to life, crisp and sharp....I wonder if it's because of the broncolor light??

It might play a bit... The quality of the light from the Broncolor SirosL are top notch!
Question sir. What are the powers of the two flashes? Are they both the same. Is one greater than the other. I appreciate the response and great work

Inspirational stuff! Surprised to see such slow shutter speeds for capturing motion. I've had trouble with motion blur even at 1/500 or 1/1000 with strobes, and had to really push ISO to do it. Any tips on how you made the slower shutter speed work for all these? Just timing?

The speed mode with the Broncolor Siros L helps a lot... What are you using, in what mode? HS, HSS?

@@Hkvisuals Profoto B10’s in “freeze mode’/HSS. I think part of my problem was trying to light large spaces instead of just the subjects.
Perfect my man. Thank you. I haven't gone to the mark iv either. What's your thought on it please? I'm not seeing enough of a reason to warrant $3k. Also, I have the profoto B1's at 500ws. Are you finding you are needing the 800ws? I was torn between these two systems but went with profoto.

Thanks my friend... The mark II still fulfills my needs ha, ha. For the Siros L lets say that if it had only 500ws I would be able to use it on 75% of my work but that's me. It all depends on the type of work you are doing. But the thing is, when I 'm outdoor battling my friend the sun, it's always nice to have that little extra room and not always work at full power. ;) But hey, the profotos are great !
Great stuff! How much post production do you do to some of these photos? I'd love to see a vid of that process as I coach a wrestling team and am looking to give them some photos to get excited about. First venture coming up. I have a Rebel T5 and two Youngnuo 560IVs with 33" shoot-through umbrellas.

Thanks for the comment... I never thought my retouching process woukd have anyone interested. Depending on picture it takes me 15 mins to 2h (roughly). Depending on clients needs, level of retouching and colour grading. Will seriously think about naking a video on that topic...

Hey, How do you find the lights? Are they good to freeze the motion? I saw that you did freeze the motion. Is it relitively good?
@Hkvisuals

I actually us Broncolor Lights the 8ààws SIROS L ! They are a bit expensive for some, but for me they are amazing to freeze motion!
got a question for you, why do you use two lights, the beauty box with grid and the softbox, and whats the purpose of the grid,
@Hkvisuals
5 жыл бұрын
One light is my main light, and will basically expose my subject, the 2nd light is used as a kicker light or accent light that will highlight/ outline the edges of my subject and will make it stand out from the background... The grid is generally used to narrow the beam of the light, you have more control to focus the light on your subject.
Any post process tutorials yet?

Hello Haze you'll have KZread boost you at 10k :) if we were to ask a local gym if we can setup a photo shoot, when would we go for the defined shiny look and is that baby oil rubbed on to show muscles better, if they wanted that look?
hi when using flash, whats your usual power? does it look always dark after taking the photo and only the flash's light effect is there?even though its well lit in the room?
@Hkvisuals
3 жыл бұрын
Hard to answer that question... it depends on the situation, it is always different. If you want that dark contrasted look, start by under exposing your ambient and then expose correctly your model with the help of your flash!

"Ask me any questions" , hello then ^^ Do you think it's possible to get quite exact same look with common speedlights as Yongnuos ? Indoors but mostly outdoors as their power is not as strong as the studio flash

Cédric BARON ask any questions, at least photography related. I've achieved this look in the past with speedlights (canon's 600ex-rt with silver reflecting umberellas). Of course indoors, and at full power resulting a much slower recycling time. Don't know if the yongunos and the canons natch in terms of power though.

En fait je viens de me rendre compte que tu es Strasbourgeois, si un jour tu organises une journée de workshop à proximité je me ferais une joie de m'y inscrire (je suis à Brumath :) ) ! Merci pour ta réponse, ils doivent avoir une puissance similaire mais en extérieur ça reste toujours compliqué de contre le soleil... faut jouer en hss et encore :p

Yes the mark II
It serves the dramatic vibe well. But i prefer to light the person differently so you can see every muscle and nothing is lost in the shadows...which is hard because the shadows tone the muscles. It´s a Compromise always.

Hi Derek... In a Studio, you can do a lot with simply 1 or 2 speedlites, and a reversed silver Umbrella... That was my kit when I started, and I got amazing results indoors and outdoors when used at the right time.Maybe you already own this equipment?
