- Photos OK to edit
Hi,
I've spent a majority of the day just researching lighting, examples, products, reviews, etc.
I realize that what I need depends on my photography needs and I have had a heck of a time trying to find the affordable most practical solution for lighting.
softbox=expensive/controlled lighting
umbrella=inexpensive/less-controlled lighting
...so, anyone have an opinion on the umbrella softboxes??
and also, looks like a sure thing I can invest in is some good literature. Understanding exposure seemed to be the go-to book for exposure, how about lighting? Master Lighting Guide for Portrait Photographers?? I can go ahead with learning for sure.
thanks
