Canon 7D + EF 70-200 f2.8L IS II f5.0 | 1/200 | ISO 100 Strobist info: 2 x Elinchrom 400w + 14×63″ Strip lights with grid on camera left and right @ 2.0 power Trigger: EL Skyport Thinking of getting a low key shot here and the grids on the strip lights help a lot because it gives me control on which parts of the model I wanted to light. They also gives a ton of versatility since you can […]
Had a funshoot today. I have to test if I can use the Fuji X100 for some serious shooting. I took advantage of the fact that the fuji X100 had a built in ND filter and can sync with the flash with 1/1000 or more 🙂 that enables me to kill the ambient light even if its high noon. I had a 580exii with lumiquest softbox III on top right to get some nice highlights and shadows to the model […]

I really had no plans on using my Fuji X100 for this shoot; I just wanted to try if it will work in a photo shoot like this with off camera lighting. I used a Yongnuo RF-603C together with 2 x 580exII speedlites 🙂  Surprisingly, the x100 handled it quite well, in fact the skin tone is slightly better than my Canon 7D + 24-70mm f2.8 L 🙂 I just wish the write speed (with raw enabled) is faster on […]
