very good video but how we can make camera sensor surface absolutely parallel with art work; in case of big painting this would be a problem. Although we can fix this miss-alignment easy in PS but I still prefer to fix this problem at hardware level. Thanks a lot.
Amazing video. So thankfull for you putting this up for free. Super grateful. To attain this knowledge might as well be a 1000dollar course, but I got it for free in 10 min, Cheers and keep up the good work! :)
The surface of the art generally is flat. Papers and paint have texture so reflections of the light source from the artwork surface can be polarized in random directions, but the camera filter is only able to filter polarized in a single direction. A polarized light source ensures the reflections from surface texture are polarized in one direction, which can be filtered by the camera filter.
@@barrywesthead5357 thank for your response. I have to dig deeper to really understand this. But in the mean time I just follow your advice and hope for the best. Thanks for the video and for taking time to answer. :)
Very informative video. I am an artist and photographer myself. I would be interested in more of your tutorials. When wearing your head cam remember to hold still for a moment. Also how about a tutorial on your printer. Thanks Van
This is excellent. Thanks Barry. I'm new to this (I paint and I want to start taking my own shots of the work). What lights do you use (for both scenarios)? And what polarising gels are you using (in the second scenario)?
Hi Barry, great video. I've been professionally photographing artwork for a couple years and have been considering adding polarization to my workflow for awhile now. You sold me on the results of what it can do. I just wanted to clarify something before I go and spend money. Is your camera filter a linear polarizer, or circular polarizer?
Fuck yes! Finally a video not selling products and with great information.
Extremely helpful - great tutorial! Thanks very much!
Excellent tutorial Gary!!! I had heard about polarising filters on lights but never seen them in action , thanks for the demonstration.
Thanks for such great video. We want to see more
Excellent in-depth presentation. Thanks!

Great tutorial. Thank you for sharing.
beautiful informative video, thanks!
great video. Where did you find the mounting board. That's extremely useful

Send me an email (bwesthead@art2printimages.com). I'll send you a good technical article.
Thank you .
why use Polarizer on lighting? In filter in the camera should be eought right? or what am i missing?

@@barrywesthead5357 Thanks for your thorough explanation
great video thanks and I want one of those tee shirts ?? also do you have to use a linear polariser on the lens or are you using a circular filter ?

Thanks for the video, what is the name of the laser device used for centering?
great video! thanks so much..curious what model camera and lens youre using
This is excellent. Thanks Barry. I'm new to this (I paint and I want to start taking my own shots of the work). What lights do you use (for both scenarios)? And what polarising gels are you using (in the second scenario)?
You described the angle of the light on the left as 25 degrees from a line perpendicular to the subject, which it obviously is not.
thanks!
How do you attach the polarizer sheet to the strobe?

Can you tell me what is the model of laser level you are using? I photograph art for the living
Do you not have to use a light meter?
Typically I use a Nikon D800E and Nikon AF-S 105mm f/2.8 VR lens on a tripod with VR off.
The second set of lights with the barn doors- can you tell me what kind of lights and bulbs those are?
Too complicated
Yes it may be complicated but it is a very professional way to enhance tricky textured Art
