    Thanks for the video. Every time you say "EXpescially" it kills me a little.

  2. ron peredo says

    is the softbox 40x40cm?

  3. Sonja says

    Wow 👍 . thanks for sharing . love this , so real. And down to earth .

  4. Andris Kinloch says

    As far as the stand for soft box, would using the same stand from backdrop holder work?

  5. Bee JayGee says

    nice video

  6. Aik Creations Multimedia says

    That's a good one

  7. Elizabeth Goodwin says

    With it being 4 years since this video, would you still use these same flashes, or upgraded to a newer version of the Yongnuo?

    Great video! All quite good info, particularly to those starting to get a leg up. I bought most of my gear used, apart from my main camera. eBay was my Goto place for speedlites and after some judicious bidding came by several 580exIi for what it would cost for one new Canon 600. In the end I spent under US$1,000 for speedlites, modifiers and a Godox RT system.

    My only contention is that photography is going to be expensive. However, you have discretionary control over that expense. Many of the items available in the used market are in great working order at a fraction of the price. In my case the RT trigger system justifies itself for simplicity’s sake, and the weight of the favourable reviews on YT as well as other online resources.

    Enjoyed your video gentlemen. Keep it up.

    you have a model number for the power pack you are using

  15. Jeffrey Riggs says

    well done.. Thanks!!!!!

  16. Varun Kamal says

    you really need to improve your photography …after the light was added I thought you re gonna click a picture that was awesome…but I was just a very slight improvement over no flash…! come on man!

  17. Steven Means says

    what size softbox are you using

  18. JR says

    Why do you set the light so far away? It's just making the flash work harder and producing harsher light.

  19. Huckleberry Thinz says

    The shot at 6.16 looks like Desperate dan lol.

  20. Tomy Sonnier says

    Hey guys, just stumbled on your video today. Thanks for sharing. I have a question, would the same technique apply if I were to shoot products for my new business? Products like shampoo, essential oils, etc.

  25. King Tut says

    it would b helpful if u took the cam off of tripod and showed us your equipment as youre talking about it front and back, then cut the video to where its on a tripod again.

  26. Nam Chanterrwyn says

    Which softbox is that? and where can I purchase it?

  28. Herminigildo Jakosalem says

    P.S. I find the user's manual of those 622 poorly translated and hard to understand. Thanks.
