  • How tiny and cheap can your key light be and still be professional looking for a youtube studio? Do you need a fancy expensive main light? Or can you get away with a tiny Zhiyun X60. Smallrig RC 450 D vs Zhiyun X60, Lantern vs Softbox. Best lighting for youtube talking head videos.

    Wouldn't shrunk down diffusion just be a beauty dish or an led panel? How soft a light is is determined by it's diameter so there's only so much you can do physically to make it small.

    I think the Bowens adapter is too narrow, making the light directional instead of diffused. Still, with some tinkering, it probably works as a key light.

    Diffusion is a constraint of physics and the larger surface area that is needed to negate specular light.
    Just like physics dictates how we will never have holograms in the air.
    It's impossible to have a holographic projection without a substate.
    Put a neon glowy array thing in the backdrop with the X60 and, epic light blogging will occur.
    Two diffusers in hand look more comedic.
    Entertained by the ramble as always. Good stuff.

      @Nordic_Ventures 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      what if you have the diffusor "bending" light rays so you could have a compact light but get the same effect of a diffusor. like a lense that bends reality and diffuses the light on to the whole room/ scene .

    Zhiyun was better. Your background should be darker than your subject.
    Also soft light has a lot to do with the size of the diffusion. Larger diffusion, softer the light. So that won't ever shrink. However, perhaps an innovation in how they're packaged/unfolded to emphasize portability.

    hahah. too many gems in this one to mention any of them.
    also regarding the “electro smog”, it’s not ionizing radiation so you’re fine.
    as long as you don’t feel your cells boiling (as microwaves can only heat us) you are ok!

      Non ionizing radiation is still harmful, it's definitely not agreed upon that it's safe. Plenty of data showing all electronic devices are harmful in some way.
