  • C stands can make great stable stands for your lights with a very small footprint, but that’s not all the C-Stand is good for. In this video, Daniel shows you how a C-Stand is a versatile tool for all types of mounting, grip, lights and so much more.

    2) It is good to do these sort of videos (for us and Adorama) because there have been many a time when I saw something in a video and made that infamous mental note to get it for what it does... and... time passes... and the memory is preoccupied recalling other stuff... and so on. Thank you.

    Great video Daniel. May I request a video about how to use coloured gels in our existing strobes and softboxes, I mean in terms of how you would place a piece of gel within the soft box? I have a couple of octa boxes and an assortment of ‘small’ (3 inches by 3 inches) coloured gels, but not sure how to use them eg, do I just poke them inside the octa box, close to the strobe bulb? Grateful for your advice please. 👍🏻🙏🏻

I’m using a Godox AD200 Pro and Canon 270EXII speedlite. Any advice would be really helpful. Thank you and enjoy a great and wonderful day.

    Check out flat aluminum frames (blade frame). I find those with some binder clips to be a dream for clipping gels or diffusion to. The round steel frames are nice for pre-skinned frames but for open frames, blade frames are the way to go IMO

  • @johnries2682
    @johnries2682 Před 2 lety +1

    My experience for about 3 decades plus has proven to me that C-stands are grossly overrated except in cases such as using different risers with the turtle base. That simple use is quite convenient. But, legs like the turtle are a major pain to store, transport and it's heavy. I've found standard three leg stands are the most convenient, easiest to store and are a lot lighter. But, as you illustrate a turtle base cane be very useful, although a very simple, super compact folding Manfrotto style background stand is even better IMHO.
