I wouldn't dare having that many soft boxes around the house. Markus not merely has them, he gets the wife to stand there holding placards for him to test all the toys! RESPECT
Markus let me start by saying thank you, your videos are so informative, helpful and inspiring. Your passion for the craft of photography is noticeable in your voice, the time and investment it takes to make these videos also reflects on your passion. Your wife has my praises because she is a wonderful model and a very supportive spouse. Although I just started to follow your channel I’ve had lots of questions and doubts answered by the information you provided. Thank you again and hope to see more wonderful videos. Sincerely Christian Polanco
Not sure how you don't see the difference between the inner diffuser doing its thing and not having it attached. The inner diffuser's MAIN job isn't to soften the light, it's to break up the HOT SPOT so by the time the light reaches the outer diffuser it's a lot less specular. But I won't lie, dude. You and your wife put so much effort into these videos for us. Kudos to you guys. We appreciate all you do for us.
Yes, a deflector plate can lower the light output when used in combination with white diffusion (but so does using a second inner diffuser) Using an OPEN silver modifier with deflector plate actually gives 2-3 times MORE light than when using white diffusion, especially when using double diffusion... and I ESPECIALLY use it when outdoors! I have 2 videos on the subject coming out in a few days. Big difference in the amount of light- much more output this way.
Really funny to see such a collection of softboxes from a guy that masters lighting so good that he can create any look he wants with plain reflectors. 🤣👏
I wish you both a wonderful Holiday, have a great and safe time.. And I look forward to seeing your Video's from this trip of a lifetime. All the best from England, Best Regards Gary...
Best ever photography channel on TH-cam. I wouldn't imagine before today I could watch a softbox video longer than 10min let alone 40min. Thank you Markus
Thank you Markus. I love your mind and your unorthodox approach to everything. Have a great trip and we’ll look forward to seeing the wonderful photos you capture in Bora Bora!
You would love the 36" Glow Parasnap. super light weight, quick change adapter rings, sets up in 1 second and breaks down absolutely flat. Awesome video, thanks for all you do.
At 1:46 you'll notice a couple of Parasnaps lying on the ground on the bottom right . I did not like them them and returned them. They are definitely not small. Many of the ones I featured in my video were MUCH much smaller when collapsed. Even though the speeding goes flat, it is still attached and adds length to the already long folded up softbox, and it requires considerable effort to fold it open and lock into place. I also didn't like the bluish color light the parasnaps create. And they are pretty wide also when collapsed because of the heavy duty material. Definitely not something OI consider a lightweight small travel modifier. I like the Glow grand box much more because the speed ring can detach.
@@MarkusPix those look like the 44’s. I have the 36, and I usually have to give it a little shake to get it to open enough to start locking it into place. I also use mine with the Godox mount on my ad300 and ad400. I may need to do my own color comparison against a cheetah box and my ad600. I wonder if funky colored ad300 plus funky colored Parasnap somehow cancels each other out. Anyway thank you for all you do. Time for me do some testing. Enjoy your vacation.
MarkusPix... Slowly becoming the bob ross of photography and video production. I mean this in the best possible way, love bobby. Thank you for investing your time and money and thank you for caring/sharing.
@@MarkusPix HAHAHA now I am visualizing bob's slow demeanor next to yours. Maybe you have a tv/youtube show lined up... Today, we're going to take a picture....
9:17 - Cara is naturally beautiful. It shows that she takes excellent care of herself. You, too. I like Godox gear. It's comparatively inexpensive, but the quality is good. I can't wait to see your Bora Bora photos.
🇹🇹🇩🇰 My Dear Markus, I am watching only for the fun of it, but I have no understanding of all that Softboxes, and lightning modifiers, etc. I have never used these weird look umbrellas😄😱, and I know I never will have a reason, or any reason to use any of those stuff. But it is fun, and was fun watching you cleaned up your mess🤣🤷♀️ I stop at 25:20...I couldn't take anymore of that mess, haha. Markus, you're so amazing. A beautiful child of a sweet Angel. Thank you Markus. Much love and blessings to you and Cara.🙆♀️🙆♂️
Man, I have never stumbled across a more helpful video. I thought it was going to be insane when I saw the softboxes and papers scattered all over the place. But it was super entertaining and helpful. The one I didn’t see that I thought would be a top contender is the Glow Parasnap that fold up flat as the rod system but still have the fast setup integrated bowens mount if you preferred the round to the square.

Thanks Markus for your epic insight info on softboxes, part 2. I have owned a godox 32x32 for using with speedlites. Same one you have shown at 30mins 6secs. I also had the same problem with it, not holding the square shape after opening from being folded flat. I don't store it in the round bag here at home. I added pieces of velcro in the corners to stretch the white outside diffuser to this and has brought back the original square shape like new when being opened.
Above all else, this has made me more secure in the soft box collection I already have. I love the trick for hot gluing the rods into the soft box, I may have to try that, and also try out a lighter easier to use speed ring for it too.
I'm not going to say that you have too many, because in reality your the one examining, testing and researching for everyone's benefit. And so in that resolve, it's a win win scenario Mr. Markus. BTW, it was a grand tour.
I am also obsessed with getting the weight down on my gear, gone all carbon fibre lately, just bought the colbor, been getting a tennis elbow lately so this a god send!
Wow. Your videos are extremely informative! It has changed my mind in type of lights as well as modifiers. Keep up the good work! Both yourself and Cara are amazing people!
The collapsible umbrellas are amazing. They're also like $36 minimum for some reason and the minute it blows over in the wind they're broken. There goes your $36 after one use
All I can say is Wow! I think you covered just about every possible softbox. Thanks for the information, very helpful for determining what softboxes to buy.
Great stuff!! Thanks for taking the time and effort to share your experience with photography. I watch video after video---they are like potato chips. Can't stop. I really enjoy the funny comments you make (intended and unintended). My favorite funny comment from this video >> speaking of a soft box, "It really hides wrinkles on older people which is what we are trying to do (Cara pictured on screen at the time that's being said)." I bet she really appreciates that. Haha!! Cracks me up!! This is a fantastic TH-cam page--keep up the good work and I hope your trip is fun!!
..Please put on your bags, some time to enjoy! Wish you both, the best of this "now" moment! ..and a mini vlog camera for sharing, would be nice! I see the world, in this room, from your cameras!
HOLY MOLY you completely opened my eyes, I was using a soft box way to large for my ad200 I saw the video went out and got my equipment out and changed softbox size and talk about a whole new world. Thank you for all you amazing help and please Keep Creating.
Only found you on TH-cam last week and I subscribe to so many of the well known TH-cam photography channels. I can only say thanks pal, love the time you both put in producing good content. Keep it up, I found myself watching your videos at 4am, this morning British time, before I went to work for the start of my shift. Keep going, and if you ever get the chance, please make your thoughts known on buying a Nikon d850 in 2022 and which three lenses you'd recommend. I really do have a fancy for the camera but need serious convincing if it's worth the second- hand purchase in 2020.
It's amazing how much time and thought you put into all those soft boxes. It is so much easier to make a choice when you actually get to see it set up and hear thoughts of each softbox. ...Well done 👍 ... Enjoy your vacation.
What a phenomenal journey through this mountainous landscape in your home! It's educational, so practical and hilarious at the same time. This is enlightening in so many ways. Thank you.
Terrific follow-up to the previous softbox video! I have watched that one many times and it has been a great resource for a few years. I enjoy this one for additional information and how some of your own preferences have changed over the intervening years. I can say with certainty that NO ONE else has done a video comparing and contrasting such a variety of softboxes.
Your presentations are some of the absolute best out there today! You bring concepts down to "what really makes a difference," without excessive scientific jargon or complexity. Thanks for every one of your presentations. Really love the content, and am saving a lot of money not falling for marketing elitism, ex. Profoto, etc.
Great video as usual, Markus. I've always loved the Elinchrom Rotalux speedring. But not the softboxes really. The system is the perfect blend of the speed of an easy fold softbox and the simplicity and sturdyness of a rod softbox. Recently I just found out that I could buy an Elinchrom speedring and just use the rods (with the tips removed) from my softboxes of choice (Broncolor, Godox etc) and build the perfect softboxes for myself.
Thanks for the info … I have several Rotaluxes still around … Not using my Elinchrom stuff anymore and a plethora of Godox lights (ok also softboxes) I will try this
Hey Markus you rock! I'm impressed with your passion for this stuff, I'm amazed with your style of sharing your knowledge it's feel very genuine not like someone ist trying to sell mi something! Have a nice day Sir.
I swear Markus you have the most loving, tolerant wife in the history of mankind. 😊
I need to show this to my wife. Then one cupboard of modifiers wouldn't seem too much 😇

Ok. I admit I laughed out loud at the vast field of softboxes. This is why we love you, Markus. (By the way, hope you guys have a blast in Bora Bora).
That was awesome. I’ve never seen anyone as passionate and enthusiastic about soft boxes as Markus was in this video.

Best guidance you provide for the selection.Thank you
