Lesson 7 Strobe and Tungsten

Example of my 1980's Work

The background was lit with tungsten and HMI light and the subject was lit with a strobe with and and 40 degree egg crate. The camera set to flash color balance. The 1st step was to figure out an exposure for the strobe set at the fastest sync speed of 1/160. The continuous light on the background is measured to match the f/stop established by the strobe. The use of the shutter speed/f-stop slider helps to visualize the exposure relationships. Care was taken to keep the lights confined to their intended targets and a capture of each light was made separately to confirm its purity
