Professional photographic lamp

The last few pages of Portrait Photography are mostly about lamps and sellers. You can go and have a look.

I found a lot of knowledge about lights on the internet.

Generally, a photo studio only uses three lights, two soft boxes in front, a background light in the back, and a light on it when it needs to shine.

Lamps are generally priced according to the brand of power type. Five thousand dollars can be bought very well (of course, it can't be good enough to love Linglong and Brown). Guangbao, U2 can be Jinbei JTL and so on.

It is difficult to control the heating color temperature of long bright light, so it is generally not recommended to choose flash (long bright light is generally used in the background).

1. If the studio doesn't have a big flash, you can buy a smaller one. If the studio has a big one, you can also buy a bigger one (but I suggest buying a bigger one just in case you need it).

2. Generally, there are many soft boxes used for commercial photography in China, and there are many reflective umbrellas used abroad, mainly depending on your own preferences and technology. The light emitted by the reflective umbrella is relatively hard. You can try the reflective umbrella if you have good technology.

3. Generally buy a 500W main lamp and auxiliary lamp, then buy a backlight, and then buy a lamp to use flexibly (I suggest).

4. Buy one or two reflectors and wireless flashers by the way.
