You are absolutely right to mention that how much MagBox creates soft lighting. I am simply using Magsphere and it is a small brother of MagBox and it gives beautiful soft lighting. Thanks, MagMod for such beautiful gadgets to ease our job.

More, more, more! So awesome. So helpful. Thank you Trevor

this was a very educational video regarding proper lighting techniques and how to use Magbox, thanks!

Super helpful!!! I am so excited to get my magbox

This is my new favorite channel I'm learning a lot from you guys.

Great video, I can't wait to get my magbox and other magmod products. Very helpful video. Thank you my friend.

Always enjoy watching you every time Trevor. Very nice video showing the capabilities of the MagBox. And keep going strong with the the 'How I Shot It' series. Perhaps you could interview Neil Redfern sometime...awesome photographer from the UK that loves MagMod. Cheers from Minnesota.

Great Samples For using upcoming Magboxes... 👍🙋‍♂️ so excited get my Magboxes 😁😁

SmartShot you are too kind. 🙏

Nice images- BUT- for many of the setups a bare head with a mag grid and/or gel would have produced the same results without wasting flash power in the soft box. Any of the back/edge lights could have gone ‘bare’, and even key/fill lights when they were far away. (Such a small soft box will only give you a softer light when it is within a few feet of the subject -physics!) I love MagMod products-but with small flashes outside you gotta use them properly!

The softbox will help soften the light by providing a bigger light source through the diffusion panel.

Which photo Yadnesh? For strobe power it's hard to say since our cameras don't record it. But usually when I am shooting while the sun is out with flash I will put them at pretty high powers - like 1/4 power or 1/2 power.

Do you use both flashes in each box for these photos?

Did you do ettl or manual flash what power and setting.

Dania Ahmad thank you. One could be enough many times but since I have four flashes I will often times toss two in the MagRing just so I can fire them both at lower powers thereby allowing me to shoot them at quicker recycle times. Also just so I'm ready if I ever decide I need more power.

Trevor, question- so in a real wedding situation, where do you choose to begin with a speedlight in your magbox situation? 1/256? 1/128?

@dayleyhighlights

5 жыл бұрын

Hi Wendy, it depends on the time of day that it is. If just after sunset then yeah usually 1/128th. But if just before or at sunset when it's still a little bright out I will start usually around 1/64th or 1/32nd. It also depends on how far away I am placing my light and whether or not I am using one or two flashes. So lots of variables. But hopefully that helps a little.

I had used Godox AD200 bare bulb photography with a soft box. What I noticed is that my bare bulb had fused twice. I don't no why, but I had to purchase it two times. Now I am scared to purchase another one. Is it because I had used at full 1/1 power may be for continuous 3 to 4 shots, or could there be some other reason.

Interesting watching these videos now.. in ALL the past MagMod videos Trevor always goes on and on about how "I threw away my softboxes once I switched" but now they make their own... suddenly there's a use for softboxes again.. hmmm Not knocking the product or Magmod, but interesting..

@MagnetMod

Hey ftbalz! Thank you for your comment. The real point is that until the MagBox, soft boxes were very difficult to set up! Our goal is to make awesome photography easy! It took us over three years to develop our MagBox, we wanted to have other options before that :)

@dayleyhighlights

5 жыл бұрын

It's actually been taking some getting use to shooting with a softbox again. Previously I never used one because setting them up was just too cumbersome. So to compensate I'd just move my light back a little further and a little less to the side (closer to me) and used only MM modifiers. But now that in l've had a chance to use the MagBox it had renewed my interest in using softboxes on shoots. Mainly for two purposes. One to get the light in closer and get those soft shadows on occasion. The second is using the MagRing and putting two flashes side by side for either faster recycle times or extra flash power if I see a reason for it. I'm still not entirely accustomed to using softboxes again but each shoot it's working it's way back into my system.

Many thanks Trevor ! I like your videos so much ! Here is my question : I own 2 Godox AD200 and wanted to know if (in a brighting day and at the same positions than your 2 softboxes in the video) you think that I could only put an AD200 in the Magbox and the other one inside the second normal softbox (which is not a Magbox). Or would you put both AD200 inside the Magbox and use a normal speedlite (Godox 685) with the second softbox? I would prefer(for common reason) the second solution. Last question : could I use instead of the second softbox my magsphere for the second light source? Many thanks , Olivier
