Photos taken with a RING FLASH
Could you show us some photos? I really want to get a reference because I never used before a ring flash and now I have one, it's a homemade ring flash. Are you comfortable using it?? Do you hate it or love it? Thank you for your feedback. Apr 05 08 12:55 pm Link They are great for fashion but suck at the eyes. EL Apr 05 08 12:57 pm Link jCveraC wrote: Now that is creative.

Apr 05 08 01:03 pm Link See the Ring Flash section of the Lighting, Flash, Ring, & Battery Strobe Reference thread. There's a few dozen threads on ringlights, including some dedicated to showing results. Some examples: * Ringflashes? Here's what I want to know! (Stephen Eastwood's consolidated ringflash thread) * A Ring-ing Endorsement Review of AB Ringlight by our own John Fisher * Alien Bee's RingFlash (With overpowering sun examples) * Finally tried my AB ringflash. * Has any one used a ring flash for fashion shots? * Ring Flash - Love them? Hate them? Have one? * Ring Flash For Glamour Photography * Ring Flash Examples? Sigma/Sunpak * How YOU use your ring flash * Post your best ringflash shot! * I hate ringflashes. (MANY Examples) * Anyone use a ring flash for shooting models? Apr 05 08 01:04 pm Link EL PIC wrote: I have to agree...I like the light but they suck at the eyes...

Apr 05 08 04:35 pm Link Apr 05 08 04:37 pm Link Apr 05 08 04:39 pm Link Edit: Note about your DIY device - you are seriously restricted to lens choice, distance, overall output, and I am sure whenever the electric can opener runs your flash fails. I suggest not taking this near any appliance stores, could result in a total equipment malfunction - maybe even meltdown. Just curious; what did your wife say when she realized her best mixing bowl was gone? ....................................... Great for location. 18+ For this shot the ring flash is connected to my Porty - 1200ws, we had only minutes to knock out the set. Cars were coming up the hiway and around the bend. https://img6.modelmayhem.com/070331/15/ … a1139f.jpg The below image was shot in studio... I went in and fixed the ring-catchlights in her eyes. You can avoid red-eye by having a continuous light source aimed at the model, a 1k hot light is good, that keeps her eyes from dilating between flashes. The continuous light is less output than the strobe/ring-flash and is eliminated by the flash.
