| Softbox |
A soft box is a
photographic equipment that is used to conceal a light source such as
a flash head or a lamp. The light passes through its translucent
front panel, thereby getting diffused and softened. Photographers,
who are into portrait photography or macro photography, frequently
use them. However, not all of them know how to exactly position their
subject and this equipment to get the best results. I keep reviewing
the photography forums, where I see endless numbers of amateur as
well as professional photographers keep asking about the size of soft
box they should buy, if they can use the soft box with a Speed light,
and many other questions that prompted me to write these guidelines.
Follow them properly and after seeing the results, I bet you will
never shoot without these soft light devices.
- Always buy a soft box that is larger than the subject or object you will be shooting. A box with larger surface will make the light fall evenly on your subject. Moreover, the larger the box, the softer will be the lights produced by it, giving your subject a majestic look.
- If you want to adjust the intensity of the light, you can do that by altering the distance between the subject and the Soft Light Devices. The closer the subject, the harsher will be the light falling on it.
- Shadows can be created or removed by adjusting the angle and direction of the soft box and using other reflectors and diffusers. Experiment with different angles and enjoy the effects that you will get in your pictures.
Soft, diffused key
light that illuminates your subject appropriately is crucial for
having flawless photography experience. Softbox supplies will help you to achieve this.
